If memory serves me right this may have been my very first 25th custom I completed. I did not remember him from a kid so there was no nostalgia meaning behind making him as opposed to some of my other customs. No, the thing that inspired him was the WWE Build n Brawl head. I wanted to see if there were any WWE heads that could be made to look exactly like a GI JOE and sure enough I found it with out much looking. Around the same time I found a guy at my local swap meet who had over 200 original joes with most accessories and was able to buy them for around $180. In this lot was Ambush and some accessories. A couple weeks ago i was able to buy a ambush repaint in a two pack that had the mesh accessories so now my Ambush is complete.
Unlike previous CotD I am not going to do the good and bad review just to see if maybe I get more thna three posts on my figures. If you like the old format I have been doing i will gladly go back to it. |

The uniform and camo look really good. I'll be honest and tell you the head is definitely not working. That said, Ambush is one of my favorites out of the newer Joes.

yeah the body looks great, the head is to big. and as i have learned, most people dont post unless the figure is really outstanding. but that doesnt mean that they didnt like it it just didnt inspire them to say any thing.
