Artic Cobra Commander!

Just decided to make a version of CC that is actually different than the numerous repaints we've received. This one was inspired by the arctic scenes in "G.I.Joe: The Movie". Very simple recipe:
Head, Helmet & Gun: Legions 5-pack Cobra Commander (Though any standard helmet version would work)
Body: Arctic Snake Eyes

Removed the parka's hood, trimmed off the pegs that hold it in place, and CA'd it slightly back so his helmet would fit. All the other SE accessories were removed, and then just painted the figure with Testors Model Master Acryl.

Female HISS Driver!

Thanks for the replies. C'mon people! There are a ton of views, but very few replies. Give me some feedback! (Things to change/improve are welcome, just please keep the "j00 su><0rz!" to a minimum. Y'know, fragile ego and all. ;) )

Anyways, here's a new custom that was briefly hinted at in my previous post. I bought one of the new HISS tanks, but have been unable to get a hold of the HISS Driver at a decent price. Even loose, his ebay price was just too high. So I decided to make my own. Even in the 80's I thought the driver looked as if he was wearing the male version of Baroness' outfit. So, in a reverse manner, I've created a Female HISS Driver.

Recipe:
Unhelmeted Head: Villains Baroness
Hair: Scarlett sans ponytail
Helmeted Head: HISS Driver (Thanks to Badgumbo for sending me this!)
Body: Wave 8 Baroness
Belt: Scarlett sans quiver

I'd like suggestions for an "official" code name. Just like the only other "named" HISS driver was known as Rip-It, I'd like her to be unique.

Unfortunately the blue I liked turned out to be glossy. That'll be fixed once I spray a matte sealer.
