I always liked Repeater for his steadi-cam gun that he came with. Pugsley made the belt for me so I can use on my FSS Repeater. Mine was actually defective. The vest shrunk too much on the right side so the right side is shorter than the left side. The bonus with this is that now I can fit the steadi-cam holder without having to cut any of the vest or make the vest have to lift up on one side. The club is sending me a replacement vest so I'll see how it looks then.
The other thing was that I modified a vintage backpack already for him. I'm debating whether I want to use his vintage backpack of the FSS one. I didn't realize he was coming with a backpack before. With his vintage backpack for comparison. The green doesn't match but in real life, will your backpack always match your vest? With my other Heavy Machine Gunner Big Brawler

Awesome...Repeater is bad-ass and it's good you including his Steadi-cam here. I personally prefer the NF version though in spite of that one not having camouflage.

I'm waiting to get that 50th Iron Grenadier and use his big ass gun from Aliens for my Repeater.
However that vintage version is really iconic for the figure... might do that too.

I think the new backpack looks better. Figure is too big for retro pack imo.

Vintage mount cut off vintage figure and glued onto knuckle holder from Retaliation Roadblock's belt. Oh and yeah, I agree the new backpack does look better. Just put the old one on cause I had customized it for this figure before realizing he would come with a backpack.

So, after unsuccessfully getting a replacement vest from the club, I just decided it was pointless so I took my Jurassic Park guy's vest and removed the logos and gave it to Repeater. At least his vest fits properly now and isn't shorter on the right side. Now thanks to the club's shoddy quality control, I have a Jurassic Park figure with no vest. Color is a bit off, but it's minor.

Looks good...was this vest issue only with the FSS Repeater or the Nocturnal Fire version as well?
