Falcon was always a favorite of mine. I like how you went with the Viet Nam-era look for him.

Saw this on Facebook, but was on my phone at the time. Now that I am on a computer and can see bigger pictures I can truly appreciate this fantastic custom! I wouldn't change a thing; even the head sculpt is fitting, and is kind of an homage to the original Joe line, which used the same head sculpt for Rock-N-Roll, Clutch and Breaker, the same sculpt for Flash, the first Hawk, Steeler, and Short-Fuze, as well as Star Duster later on, and the same sculpt for Zap, Grunt and Grand-Slam. Anyway, you get the picture; reusing head sculpts is perfectly acceptable in the Joe World!

Holy hell! Out-freakin’-standing Falcon bro. He and Flint and beachhead are some of my fave joes and this is just perfect!

I love this! I would even pay Ebay prices if Hasbro offered what you built.
The funny thing about the beret flash is that 5th Group went back to using the Vietnam flash based on the history. Last edited by SF Officer; 04-21-2021 at 07:42 PM.. |

I hadn’t realised 5th Group had readopted the Vietnam flash. Thanks for the info!
