This custom was part of Night Force week, a project put together by several JC members including myself. Our approach was simple. These figures are meant to be repaints and kitbashes from existing figures and vehicles. Like the originals, we planned them out to be a series of thematic 2-pack and vehicles.

In my Joe-verse, Night Force is not a standing unit. I imagine, every Joe has his ''standard'' uniform as well as a Night Force uniform for night operations. In the same vein, vehicles get special mission-specific paint jobs as needed.

Airborne was one of my first Joes and has remained a favorite of mine over the years. The Night Tomahawk was the first thing I wanted to do for this project (I had more than enough spares since the TRU clearance sale), so making a Night Force Airborne seemed like a natural fit. It was a good opportunity to update the recipe a bit with some modern parts and give the chopper a crew.
