My Version of a POC B.A.T. (city strike)

well I finished him the other night and here are a few pictures tell me what you guys think.

Here is the breakdown of the figure,
Head: 25th B.A.T.
Torso: POC Destro
Upper Arms: ROC HD (reactive armor)
Lower Arms: 25th B.A.T.
Hands: ROC Sgt. Stone
Legs: 25th B.A.T.

After a few suggestions from you fellow tankers I decided to go with the city strike paint scheme, I made his armor panels red with most gray's to darker tones I wanted a touch of yellow in there on his left sholder and on his inner arms because in his inner arms I figured it would be a soft area where dust/dirt can't get into (kinda like an axle boot) I gave him ff/sb ammo grenade belt because the torso just looks weird without a belt. please tell me what you fellow tankers think, I honestly wish they would just re-make a new B.A.T. for the POC line instead of just simple re-paints.

Part selection is total win. Don't know about the red though. I'd have made the raised armor sections a darker gray maybe. Maybe a black visor too.

I can always make some more this was just an experiment I will use this base for many other POC B.A.T.s

^^ This.

I like the red on the chest, but I'd like to see one with a black visor too.

Not sure why a robot would need gloves, but it looks pretty good.

Or yellow. I think yellow instead of the dark red plates would look really good.

I like this but I think there is an epic fucking win to be made using some poc parts and the bat head creating the ultimate poc bat that hasbro has failed to deliver
