#1068 - Ambush
Ambush had been on my customs to-make list for a long time. I started on a version of him a few years ago but did not get very far. Recently, looking through my fodder, I found a spare 25th Recondo body and legs. Looking at it closer, I realized that it worked well as a base body for Ambush. Since the uniform is already the right base colour, all I had to do was paint over the camouflage pattern. It gives Ambush more camo than the original figure (since I had to cover all of Recondo’s original camo pattern), but I actually quite like it. Head: Wolverine Origins Sabretooth Torso, upper arms, legs: 25th Recondo Lower arms: POC Snake Eyes Hands: Retaliation Colton Bandolier: Retaliation Snake Eyes Helmet: DG Duke

Looks great, OB! Inspiring head choice.
Can you push/twist those lowers into the uppers more, though, to eliminate the gapping in the elbows, or do those particular parts not mesh as well as liked?

Agree with Oz- clever head choice.

Simply perfect. Any plans to do a Dino-Hunter version?

I believe OB trims material to prevent joint rub, and the separation is a symptom of that.

Ah, okay. A choice of the lesser evil, perhaps.
