The Covert Expedition Platoon is a small group of Ex-Joes led by Hawk to do the dirtiest, most dangerous work that a soldier can do. Cut off from support and without the tools of modern warfare, the Covert Expedition Platoon will go anywhere and do anything to bring the fight to Cobra.

Knockdown (not to be confused with the Heroic member of Battleforce 2000 that fell in duty, in a desert long ago) was a member of a local police force called in to deal with a random gunfire complaint. The complaint ended up being an active Cobra arms stash. Knockdown lost his team, and nearly his life in taking down the well armed and ruthless terrorist cell. On the suggestion of Hawk, Knockdown joined the Covert Expedition Platoon to get justice against the forces of Cobra for his lost team.

"Knockdown is relentless, he'll march for days, attack against any odds and will not give up the fight. Short of death, nothing will slow him down... and he's proven time and again that death won't take him easily."

Covert Expedition Platoon: This force includes Hawk, Mike Power, Law, Knockdown, Rapid-Fire and Captain Grid-Iron. An additional team member, Sightline is available at Chuck E. Cheese's. They're dressed primarily in neon yellow and stark black with neon brown highlights.

I was really excited by the random parts that came together to make Knockdown. The lines from all the pieces and the bulkiness of the figure made it look like it really went well together.

Again though, by work with paints failed me, and despite the parts working so well together, the color scheme and the washes didn't do the parts combination justice. I kind of fel like I failed this custom, that it's not as cool as the parts combination deserved to be.
