FINALLY!!! 1982 SUPER Battle Lot

I've painstakingly tried to reproduce the Original 1982 line up of GI Joe ARAH here in 25th Versions.

The HAL, JUMP & MMS are ARAH toys.

All the vehicles have been custom painted to look more realistic and NEW repro stickers have been applied.

Most of the figures except for Flash, Scarlet & Stalker are Customized in one form or another.

I Mixed and Matched parts to make them all as accurate to their 1982 versions as possible especially the cobras.

I went for a mix of Nostalgia and Realism.

Duncan MacLeod Custom

I am IMMORTAL I have inside me Blood of Kings!..... (You're welcome, I know that song will be stuck in your head for days now. hehehe)

Anyway... Ever since I got a hold of a PP SE I wanted to make this custom.

Parts used:

Head: Star Wars Comic Pack Dude with Ponytail
Body, Coat, Sword Holster: PP Snake Eyes
Lower Legs: Resolute CC
Sword: Comic Pack Storm Shadow

I think the head looks pretty close, plus it has the Pony Tail, the Storm Shadow sword is nearly perfect except for the wrappings.

GI Joe 25th Custom Muskrat

GI Joe Custom 25th Styl Muskrat

 

This is my take on Muskrat from GI Joe.

I used the following parts.

Head & most of the gear is from the ROC Pitt Commando.

Torso & Arms Storm Shadow CP.

Legs Green Shirt.

Shotgun is from VNV.

The shield can be used as a Boogie Board too ;)

The red stripe isnt really supposed to be paint, more like the blood from a Gators head. Cause you know Musky has to be bashing Gators in the head a lot.
