For those that have done a Lightfoot v2 in modern era form, what base body did you use?
I'm going the Airtight v3 route for my Lightfoot v1 repro, which gives a great yellow base, minimizing paintwork. Wondering if there's a better (and cheaper) starter body for the dark color scheme of the Night Force version. Brown would be ideal but even a black base would be better than yellow. I see on Yojoe that the Airtight v3 buck has legs and arms from the 201 SM Barbecue v6 https://www.yojoe.com/action/11/barbecue6.shtml which is certainly cheaper than another Airtight and has a darker color scheme. Is that the best option? |

I used the ROC Flash body for mine.
But it's up to you how you want to do it.

That's not a bad idea and I've got one of those tucked away in a storage bin. Do those silly octopus pads pop right off his legs?
That's a neat idea and he has kind of an EOD-style outfit on. |

The top set does, but will leave a gap in his quads. Probably best to just black them out if you go that route.

Raginspoon makes a Lightfoot torso, though it's been sold out for a while. What do you guys think of that one?

Marauder has a dark brown buck, right? That's what I'd do.
