#118 DUTCH (PHANTOM FORCE VERSION - MTF Geared-Up figure "Night NCO"/original take on "Night Force Duke")
Marauder Task Force Phantom Force Version/Version 3 Origin: USA Season: 5 I had plans on creating a Night Force Duke based on the original 2003 version, but when the MTF Geared-Up figures released this darker color scheme for their NCO, I thought it would fill that role nicely. He kind of looks like Duke in Hawk's '86 colors and is a really nice build. When VANGUARD was putting together his permanent PHANTOM FORCE for special night operations, he wanted a strong leader to helm the team, by reversing the roles from the Himalayan rescue & selecting his half-brother DUTCH as team leader. DUTCH enjoys a challenge with his new role heading this squad on a most secret 1st mission is to stop the Gunrunners top rogues from commencing a nuclear trade war amongst the highest bidder! DUTCH knew that his team was made up of mostly players with big personalities that technically outrank him, so when selecting his fatigues he went with something that resembled the glory days of General WARHAWK, one of the most highly respected advisors to the MTF and the previous incarnation of the team!

#119 ROLLOUT (based on "Rollbar '09")
Marauder Task Force Origin: USA Season: 6 When developing the characters for my ROC Remix season, Rollbar (an Airborne repaint - still one of the best ME figure molds in my humble opinion) made the cut. Using the MTF Chimera Ops camo as a replacement for the NATO-style camo that is featured in the ROC movie/toyline as well as chance to use the "IRA" head seemed like a great way to recreate this obscure character! Built earlier than expected (due to the current catalogs inventory) it's nice to get another ROC based character in the ranks! ROLLOUT is the chief military scout that is on the advanced reconnaissance assembly for the new MTF Mobile Command Center. Commanding several land based vehicles, ROLLOUT'S job is being ahead of the Command Center to report back anything the advanced scanners might miss for the safest travel routes. It puts him in possible dangerous situations with any opposition, as the Command Center commences it's activities to travel through the West/Americas hot spots to both survey & engage when necessary to continue freedoms from both upstarts, unrest, & terrorist activity. A close friend to SGT SLATE, ROLLOUT jumped at the opportunity to be a part of this new special mission! Last edited by Steel Brigade; 06-07-2020 at 12:12 PM.. |

MY MTF UNIVERSE SEASON UPDATE with SEASON 7!!!!!!!
SEASON 1: MARAUDER TASK FORCE SEASON 2: MTF - TOKYO DARK (the battle against the Tokyo Underworld!) SEASON 3: MTF - SQUAD 87Z (return to the Himalayas to solve the mutant zombie crisis!) SEASON 4: MTF - OCTOBER STORM (The MTF , STRONG ARM & *W.A.S.P. race for secret technology!) *Warsaw Allegiance Strike Patrol SEASON 5: MTF - PHANTOM FORCE (MTF Night Ops is out to stop a nuclear trade war to the highest bidder!) SEASON 6: MTF - ROC REMIX (the ROC TOYLINE & EXPANDED UNIVERSE characters revisited - traveling the Americas in their new MTF Mobile Command Center!) SEASON 7: MTF - WILD STRIKE! (primordial adventure on the mysterious Grendel Island where the GUNRUNNERS are weaponizing hybrid creatures for mass destruction!) #120 BRIDGEHEAD (WILD STRIKE VERSION - based on ARAH "Tiger Force Beach Head") Marauder Task Force Wild StrikeVersion/Version 2 Origin: USA Season: 7 What? Another Beach Head already you say? Ahhhh. my last Beach Head homage was 28 figures ago & that version was originally supposed to be # 3 in this Universe lol!! I figured I still owed him one... or two lol... Sometimes figures just come to me when I am going through the MGR site's inventory to see what's available rather than being a part of the long master plan, & that's the case with this Tiger Force Beach Head homage! Inspiring an all new season of my MTF Universe that will feature some Tiger Force homages & colorful characters overall! BRIDGE HEAD came out of the reserve after the Moldova mission and decided to "stay on" active duty as a drill sergeant for the MTF while continuing his ranger duties on special missions. With a promise to move up to a leadership position in the future (something he has always wanted!) It looked like he would get his chance when a new special ops groups was formed for a mission called WILD STRIKE! The mission is a primordial adventure on the mysterious Grendel Island where the GUNRUNNERS have been rumored to be weaponizing hybrid creatures for mass destruction! At the last moment another reservist and former high ranking officer of their former team was brought in & re-code named VINDICATOR to head up the mission much to BRIDGE HEAD'S most vocal chagrin. Although serving as the second in command member for this mission, he thinks that VINDICATOR stole his opportunity & his other beret! |

Good stuff, brother! The MTF builds are fun, but the ones you come up with yourself are what keep me coming back, even if it is a slight variation of what the good folks at Marauder come up with! Keep up the great work!
