Hey everybody,
I'm trying to add a little height to my Falcon custom but want to maintain aesthetic integrity. What are the longest BDU legs in the fashion of 25th Dusty? Or combination of uppers and lowers? Right now I'm using the retaliation Joe trooper uppers and poc SE lowers. The real problem is the RoC desert ambush Duke torso i used is short, but i love its look with the sculpted skirt, so it has to stay. Any ideas?

I used this figure for my Falcon custom:

I've considered this but they don't add any height. I think I'm out of luck because of my torso choice.

Lower legs of 50th Falcon add height if used on Dusty uppers or steel brigade uppers. Iswapped them on the nightforce falcon for height.

Have you considered the 25th or Tiger Force Flint legs? They're similar in style but pretty long. Given they came out about the same time, the scale shouldn't be too far off, even with the shorter torso...

I think the pOC/50th IG thighs are longer. Not sure what lowers they would go with to make the entire leg longer.
Also, what does BDU mean?

The Retaliation RB uppers almost work with the SE lowers but they're cut for a robust knee pad. I think the IG legs might have the same problem but I'll try them. I think the resolute "pilot" Destro might work too.

Those would actually be perfect but i don't think i can afford Footloose, or the original owner of those legs, Sgt Slaughter.
I also need 3 sets of them.

I happen to have one set from this year's Con figure. Would you happen to have anything from my wants in either of my ME Or ARAH BST?
