Valor Vs Venom-esque Firefly by Mswi

[mswi]

....or Spytroops, not sure what line he came from to be exact, but wanted to do a mix between the released figure, his file card art FIREFLY (v6), YOJOE.COM | YoJoe.com: Dedicated to the G.I.Joe of the 80's, 90's and beyond! (http://www.yojoe.com/action/02/firefly6.shtml) and a couple of my own ideas. More or less messing around but a fun way to kill a boring Sunday morning anyways.

Awesome work man! I actually own the v6 Firefly, and you certainly brought it into the Modern Era. I am a little worried about the two front holsters, as they look like they would get in the way of Firefly aiming his rifle.

[mswi]

ya they probably would lol, I just didn't like aestically the holsters turned the other way

[Sector_15]

I loved the original version of this figure and you've just done it better by doing it in a modern style. Rock on :).

[IIIzoeIII]

cool I always thought he was one of the best figures in that era decent re-creation however the holsters look so big they almost come of as female breast armor :/

[meandnooneelse]

Your customs are always so beautiful. Brings a tear to my eye. (sniff)

[mrcobra]

Great looking update its always refreshing and really cool to see modern updates of the early 2000 era figures.

[RATFINK]

well done indeed!

[FlintWO2]

man that is awesome!

[TR1ER]

Hell of a job my man great update!

[Firefly9145]

thats cool shit right there. at first i was like huh firefly with boobs lol

[mswi]

lol never noticed the "boobs", I dug the retaliation troopers holsters,did not pay much attention to those circles on them, I'll have to find some alternative ones

[The BLAY]

well I just scoped out the VvV FF and my god is that thing atrocious! BUT thankfully there is someone like you out there that can take a turd and make it shine b/c your version is awesome!
Beautifully executed as always my friend!

[MJjoe4life]

This is an awesome custom of the JvC Firefly!!!! That is one of my favorites from that line of figures. Great work!!!

[Cloud Strife]

Excellent job, man! You definitely made the VvV Firefly so much better than what Hasbro gave us.

[BL4CK5H33P]

VvV stands for - VERY, very, Very nicely done!!! Mike ALWAYS brings out the best in Hasbro's mediocrity - MSWI = Hasbro elevated!!!

[IIIzoeIII]

since you are so good at recreating things quite accurately it would be cool to see more from this era like viper and a spytroops movie accurate SE and SS god...there's really so much I loved about that era I could go on a rant about who would be cool to see redone with ME figures

Their we're lots of nice ones but the figs never came close to the representing the card art, which I think was amazing. Which versions are of Viper were you thinking?

Thanks all for the kind words!!
