Yeah I can't think of too many perfect Marine names, besides those two and Jarhead.

I don't know if I've explained about how I'm also expanding my Intel Ops for the Joes with my Custom Project.
So, as many of us have done, I've expanded my roster... Jack Bauer (Tri-gate) James Bond (Sean Connery: Tri-gate) Val Kilmer/Robert Scott ("Spartan" Tri-gate) Brad Pitt/"Boy Scout" ("Spygame" Tri-gate) Michael Westen ("Burn Notice") Jason Bourne (Tri-gate) Action Man (Modern era, Broken Arrow Toys) Rebel (Original Character based on my College Mascot) There are a few others, but y'all get the idea. I worked crazy hard to put together some really unique figures - and the accessories are pretty awesome. I think the Joe Intel Division is going to be pretty awesome.

I can't wait to see that. I can't paint so I've never bought the Tri-gate heads. I notice they now have some painted ones, but not the ones I want and the eyes seem too cartoony for me. I'd rather they leave out the white of the eye and just paint them smaller.

Guys, I'm actually watching an old episode of the A-Team as I write this (I can not tell y'all how excited I am about the movie next Friday!!!), and Hanibal just said that he served in the 5th Special Forces Group in 'Nam (Episode: "West Coast Turnaround"). It's more than reasonable to conclude that B.A. and Face served in the same unit.
... Could they have worked with Falcon's Dad? Would Falcon know them? Since the new toys came out, I've been trying to think of a way to tie in the A-Team to the Joes - this could work. Tri-gate is supposed to be working on custom heads of all 4 original members of the A-Team for custom figures; I can't wait.

Looks pretty good. I saw it on the website. I see GH in the background there. Is he on a new body?

Oliverbox, Is the Trigate head the head for 'ME' ROC/25th Gung HO, Leatherneck and Cutter?
Oliverbox, which character are you using for Link Talbot? I picked up the Marvel CAGE and using him as Link for now. Tho I'm assigning him with my "SEAL/Devgru" Squad. I cant get rid of Greenside as Hospital Corpsman yet. The Tri-gate heads are completely custom. They make a great Gung-Ho and Leatherneck. Broken arrow Toys makes a phenomenally good custom head for Cutter with a removable baseball hat. You should check them out. I got tired of just swapping heads to make my customs. Having a new head makes a BIG difference, but some heads need to be modified, and that takes a dremmel tool and some skill - that's why I have Marine_Deadpool.

This picture is from DOC (it's a photo from his custom shop that I used to show the head), and I believe that body is simply the ROC/Resolute Gung-Ho (Wal-Mart exclusive). It fits right on there - just needs paint. It looks amazing on the 25th version of Gung-Ho.
