When I first saw the 2011 International G.I.Joe Convention exclusive Mission Brazil II Wet-Suit, I thought it was one of the greatest modern Joe figures yet, but there’s no way I could afford one, so I made my own. He’s modernized a bit. Instead of the classic woodland camo, he has the modern Navy Work Uniform Type 3 camo, which I hand painted! I also gave him a working holster. It’s one of my sculpts available from Raginspoon.
Convention Exclusive Version (left) and my custom Reference pic of Navy Work Uniform Type 3 (NWU3) camo. I hand painted the figure's camo! He's got a Marauder "Gun-Runners" pistol and my holster sculpt "Meane 5" from Raginspoon Most of the Mission Brazil II team, including a custom of Capt.Claymore made by Vega Customz Wet-Suit in NWU3 and dive gear The similar length neck post of my Mission Brazil custom and my dive gear custom allows the non-helmet head to be switched out. Here's Wet-Suit next to my custom jungle assault Snake Eyes to show the difference in the NWU3 camo and classic woodland camo: UPDATE: I gave him a swappable head with classic ARAH Wet-Suit helmet and a MK25 re-breather!

Awesome. Land based Seal customs are cool. The camo is slick too. I noticed Navy and Marines have WAY too many uniforms. But they do make sense.
Is it just me or is one those sailors have his thumbs out too far? Is it supposed to be a cupped thumb or straight out thumb?In AF, we had thumbs straight to the ground but not exceeding the length of the closed hand. |

Also, do you recognize the vest and knife on the camo Wet-Suit? I got them in a trade from you.
