Like many of you, I was rather frustrated when Hasbro made a 25th Tele-Viper but didn't include any of the cool equipment with it. So, like many of you, I made my own. It's not great, but I feel like it makes the figure more complete and more worthy of display.
I used Lt. Falcon's backpack, which, IMO, is the only good part about that figure. I bought my son a Clone Wars R2D2 that said it came with "Clone Wars gear". So when I opened it, I discovered that it was full of various guns. One gun was long, but looked camera-like to me. So I cut it off and gave the Tele-Viper a camera. I didn't have any of the hose that the vintage Joes used for equipment, so I took a 12v transformer I wasn't using anymore and cut the wire off and used that for the hose. I merely super-glued it to the camera, and there you have it: a more complete Tele-viper.

Not bad at all. The best mods are the ones you can either make from scratch or from cannibalizing from other toys.
