Great Job on all of them! Love the Cold weather Cobra troops with the white Jackets they look exactly like the ones on the Cartoons.

Thanks again Jason. Did you end up using the Fury figure for anything? It's nice body and head sculpt, this one has.
The other downside of those early blueshirt figs was getting a good 2-hand grip pose with the standard Ak47s. I don't not miss those lower arms... The app is below, for Android or IOS: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...istgp&hl=en_US https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pape...455677441?mt=8 I did the same thing with an Oktober Guard 3-pk. I bought it for the Dragonsky flame thrower gear and Sgt. Mishna gear. The O-ring figures are still sitting in the plastic tray - I don't even collect O-ring figures (good Lord, this hobby gets expensive!). Jason |

It seems like very few figures fit well into the F.A.N.G. I came back here for inspiration and saw the picture reference guide. In the bottom row, I recognize the first pic from Yearbook 2, and the third pic from a Field Manual, but where is the second pic from?

When I was a kid I used my Viper Glider Pilot to fly my F.A.N.G. He wasn't busy (his Viper Glider disintegrated in the front yard) and I figured he was qualified for aerial battle. As an adult I planned to do the same with my ME collection using the "Viper Glider Pilot" that was the wave 3 silver emblem Cobra Trooper wearing an Air Trooper helmet.

Remove the feet, but keep it a secret. Who will know?

Cool, thanks for the info! I'd love to have that guy as a figure. What are the labels of BR2, YBR2, and YR - combos of blue, yellow, and red? I'd imagine this guy in black and red myself.

Ha! It is not the feet that cause the problem. Every figure I choose has something on their leg: Cobra soldiers have large pocket on right leg and knife sheath on left leg, HISS driver has that big honkin holster on his right leg. The Strato Viper fits well, but he has that short neck so swapping heads so I can use that red Air Trooper helmet (which I am determined to do) doesn't work. Oh well, the search continues...

Is this the right Nick Fury for the jacket? I think so but confirmation appreciated.

Yes I believe so. I definitely recognize the rocket launcher.
