25th Ann Rip Cord

I don't know if anyone has done this or not, but I opened up the 21 century stuff that went on sale after x-mas and stated making one of my first and favorite seldom used Joes. Very little painting, some cutting and hot glue. I 'm still waiting to use Torpedos face mask. Let me know what you guys think. A Devils Due Stalker is on its way next.

don't get me wrong, I dig it. But something is off. I think he needs a knife.

yeah I think abesapin2's looks much better. No offence mikeTime. But I do think abe's needs a helmet and mask. Other than that it would be near perfect.

He looks good but he's in a regular paratrooper's gear, not HALO gear. There's a difference.

One, there's no reserve on the front. Then there's the oxygen tanks and mask. Etc.

The reserve on the front of the gear on the original Ripcord always bugged me b/c I knew it wasn't right.

I've already sent tons of info to Hasbro about the proper parachutes and loadouts for paratroopers and HALO paratroopers. Hopefully, they'll use the info since they asked me to send it.

yeah and the legsack looks good and all but didn't work worth a damn. Watch Band of Brothers and see what they say about it. Talk about a mistake. How many didn't even have a gun because it was in those things when it came off?
