I've always liked Tiger Force. I can't really explain why but that subgroup has always appealed to me. Regardless, there are things about it that don't make much sense from a practical view of what is supposed to be a covert jungle assault team. Most of the figures from the original release in the vintage line followed that theme pretty well. International and later releases? Not so much. Same goes with the vehicles. My goal here was to recreate the original team but try to stay closer to the spirit of its purpose. That means no bright colors. I've also cherry picked figures from later releases as well and added two new members, one of which is a new character. Instead of doing strait repaints of existing figures I wanted to try to go a different direction and tie in some of the other versions of these characters as well.

I've already got the classic version of Dusty in ME style and didn't feel the need to own another in different colors. So I decided to take some inspiration from his later versions, particularly his 91 version. I also wanted to include Sandstorm as well and thought that the brown colored Timber from the Red Ninja TRU set would work well enough for that.
