That's a cool take on FFv2! https://www.yojoe.com/action/92/firefly2.shtml was literally the last G.I. Joe I got as a kid before I outgrew the 3.75" game.... for a few decades anyway.

I appreciate it fellas! Pretty simple custom , but I think it came out pretty sweet. SE55, the wrist comm came off a fodder arm I had. I sliced it off dremel it so I could mold it better. Cut a sticker to size then applied.

This version of Firefly is always tricky to find the right head for but you found two that look great for the character! Love how he turned out. So many fun extra touches that can be done with Firefly because of his gear, really like how you have the twisted wires plugging into his gear and the extra paint on the chest grenades. Haha, always like a seek & find to see what new ideas you try.
Knew you loved Firefly so was hoping you’d tackle this version at some point. I have my Marauder one built out, need to make a final decision on the shade of green though so he’s been In Progress for a bit. So definitely cool to see an awesome one for some added inspiration to get him done.

I have my Marauder one built out, need to make a final decision on the shade of green though so he’s been In Progress for a bit. So definitely cool to see an awesome one for some added inspiration to get him done. Although a wildcard his skill set was undeniable. I incorporated this more so in this build rather than the silly ninja bull crap. He knows how to handle a sword, but Firefly is a Saboteur, so in retrospect a strategic tactician. So I geared him as such. Notice I didn’t add a pistol. I added an alternate sub machine gun. If/when he infiltrates undetected, he has to shoot his way out if caught. Double subs solves that problem. Thanks for stopping by man! You keep up the great work!

Outstanding! Love the alternate heads. I'm really digging that first head though. Great attention to detail.
I agree with him being a saboteur and leaving the ninja part out. I don't like my Joes and Cobras being watered down with the ninja title. Firefly in my Joeverse is saboteur/sniper/assassin. |

Thank you for the kind words Duke!
I wanted to give him my own twist with a modern updated look. I’m glad you like him!
