#41. CODE NAME: COMMANDER GYRO (based on G.I. Joe ARAH "Gyro-Viper")
Gunrunners Origin: USA Another ARAH figure I have been wanting to remake for some time is the Cobra Gyro-Viper. My brothers & I had the Mamba as a kid & we always enjoyed it. So when it came time to homage, I wanted to put the character in a interesting situation rather than just make him an an enemy pilot. The new MTF Exo-Suits gave me the opportunity to make him shine as a deadly force in my MTF Universe! COMMANDER GYRO is the squad leader of the new developmental cutting edge Gunrunners Exo-Suit Force known as the "HURRICANES!" An ex-terrorist organizations top helicopter pilot, COMMANDER GYRO jumped at the opportunity to get even more versatility while fighting with the new Exo-Suit program developed by the Gunrunners. He loves a good one-on-one battle with close combat weapons, & can easily best most opponents. Armed to the teeth and with amazing flight capabilities, COMMANDER GRYO has become a new terror of the skies and the land as he maneuvers with ease to give the Gunrunners a innovative advantage on the battle field for control of contraband weapons trade! |

#42. CODE NAME: CLOVER (based on EXO-SQUAD's Colleen O'Reilly)
Marauder Task Force Origin: Ireland A natural fit for the new MTF Exo-Suits was to incorporate the ideas from the space opera animated series & toy line Exo-Squad. A series well ahead of it's time, my brothers & I loved this show for its deep story and sophisticated themes of man vs their creations revolt. My favorite figure (that was mine personally) was Colleen O'Rielly, & I loved the idea of recreating her for my MTF Universe! CLOVER is the gutsy jump trooper for the MTF's EXO-SQUAD. Great with on-the-spot repair duties she also possesses a photographic memory. Well liked & friendly, she will often volunteer for recon and weapons testing. A great leader & role model soldier, she has been essential in thwarting production on many of the weapons development centers and secret facilities owned by the Gunrunners while gaining intel. She likes to modify her Exo-Suit with new gear often for battlefield surprises while yet still being known as "playing by the rules." She earned the code name "CLOVER" with all of the luck she has had with feats of heroism since joining the the MTF roster... That and she's Irish. |

Oh wow! Your Blindside homage is my favorite but I love how you make new characters out of the later ARAH designs. Clover is awesome. Gyro is awesome. Love them all, you have inspired some ideas for me to work on....

Big thanks! Truly! To all of you guys! Quote:
Thanks brother! My concept is always that if I recreate Joes that are well known (like Mutt), I wanna do a homage that we didn't get in the modern era! I appreciate your positivity & feedback as always! Now get working on those ideas my good man! lol ***UPDATE: Got a shipping notice for order#2 from Marauder today! So more NEW RECRUITS soon! |

Any chance you might take another group shot since the first one, especially of the bad guys together. I think that would be cool, or a say dio shot with several together? Maybe even a story line dio....and looking forward to more new recruits!

I can definitely do the Gunrunners group shot for you in the near future! As for a Dio, I don't really have anything setup for that (backgrounds & such), but am considering getting some kind of proper background this year. I would also like to do some art for some of my characters at some point! Thank you so much for your enthusiasm as it is always fantastic! |
