Cannot afford the Club version and they could have had a slam dunk figure had they made a helmet instead of reusing that tired Tripwire helmet...
Anyway, I bought an FSS Shipwreck because I cannot paint tiger stripes and customized an FSS Tollbooth vest to simulate the original figure. I still need to paint the vest. Add maps to his legs and do a few tweaks and I'll have a decent looking Skystriker. He will look better once he's painted up. Recipe: FSS Shipwreck body. RET Firefly head. FSS Tollbooth vest, modified. Blowtorch helmet. Vintage headset. Hot Dog clear repro visor. Will have Wild Weasel upper legs and his belt shortly, this is just an initial trial to see how he looks.

I got a great deal on Shipwreck from Kokomo Toys and I was not a fan of Tollbooth's vest, so I got him another one.

Nice work. The Tripwire head was a poor choice by the Club. They should have used a helmet.

Looking good. My first one was just a repainted tru bbq (the yellow one). I think the Shipwreck body with tollbooth vest looks really good.
