as one who has struggled with a modern ripcord for a long time, i like this one. funny how at first glance the renegades ripcord looks nothing like the arah one, but he is very useful when making an updated version.

I like the overall look,but he ain't ripcord to me.
The brown hair really bothers me,and joe's don't smoke ( it's a bad example for kids ;-)

Sweet custom. Except for the weapon, I get a WWII vibe from him.

It is a very neat, modern looking military figure and paratrooper. More of an anoymous, unnammed soldier than Ripcord. Good design, parts choice and paint apps.
Joes don't smoke. The unhealthy and negative results of tobacco use are the opposite of their positive and life affirming values.

The gun choice makes me think more SAS or SBS - some kind of United Kingdom special forces. The figure looks great but in my mind because I was raised on Marvel Ripcord will always have reddish hair.

I like him, Ripcord or not, some truly creative work and very original. And real soldiers smoke like crazy! Yeah he does look a lil SAS

I'm almost certain the head is originally from a Dragon WWII German figure.
Great custom. Not a fan on how the MX-991/U is oriented on the vest, but it is what it is.

Plus I think customs should get a little more hardcore and real worldish!And people think out of the box like Tanksters Desolation.I wanna see blood,guts,aleins,ciggys being smoked,spent shells,burned out buildings,dreadnoks getting drunk and fighting LOL!!! that kind of stuff.These figures are so life like stock as it is already, why not go all the way.

If you really want to get your SOF figures realistic then they should all have mouths full of dip and little custom pucks of Skoal or Red Man in their various pouches!
I'd have gone with red hair, but otherwise a very nice figure.

The real ones come with a clip for belt/LCE attatchment. I like that you even gave him one, though. It's one of the few bits I'm waiting for to put on my Rockblock.

It just blows my mind the level of craftsmanship that went into this custom and the fact that this is 118th scale is crazy!
