great work here.
I really really like the scarlett in fatigues. Zaps web gear just looks odd backwards like that. I love the red colars also. Nice comic touch. I cant stop looking at that scarlett. Great idea.

Shiney. What's the mortar Short-fuse is carrying?
The only thing I personally would change is a couple weapons - Short-fuse should have a carbine or a sidearm, since he's packing that mortar around; and Rock'n'roll doesn't feel right with the SAW, it's too new. The good old M60, or the MG3 that's coming in Marauder's next series, would suit better in my humble opinion. But that's just nit-picking, done by a bloke who's yet to step up and do anything his own self! All in all, very very nice.

Wow, these are fantastic! Did you change Flash's head? It looks different (I can see that the Grand Slam is the original Flash head). The photo is great too -gives me a real nostalgic feeling. I remember completing the whole team for my birthday in July of '82 and thinking that they looked so cool posed together that I took a photo. These are fantastic updates. I daresay that the Clutch looks as good if not better than the Hasbro offering (I love the Obi Wan head- perfect for Clutch). And Grunt is just 200 times better than what Hasbro has chosen to offer. What head did you use for him? Steeler is great as well and I love what you did with "Shooter". I assume he's your version of the 14th Joe that shows up on the dossier readout in the first issue GI Joe. I always assumed he was a little homage to Marvels then editor-in-chief "Big" Jim Shooter. I've been considering making one myself and I always imagined him as a sniper. Excellent, excellet job. Very inspirational.

Thanks for the great feedback mike.I used the Ace head for Flash since his looked more like the comic version.You also totally hit the nail on the head, I was going for the original comic version with the team and Shooter is what I envisioned him to be before I read the Declassified comic. As far as Grunt goes thats a rebel ceremonial trooper head.I also posted some cool pics of the team on the joedios site. Thanks again.
