    Some of my Latest 25th Anniversary Customs.

    STEEL BRIGADE TROOPER
    In my verse, the Steel Brigade are military and non-military personnel that work in the civilian sectors and help to counter the effects of Crimson Guard. Regardless if Cobra tries to laundry money, steal a communications satellite or any other number of evil things, the troopers grab their Steel Brigade uniforms and helps G.I. Joe fight the evil forces of Cobra.





    4 Generations of SB figures and customs (ARAH, Modern, 25th and Star Wars)
phalanxx:
    LEX LUTHOR


phalanxx:
    Green Arrow (Smallville)




MAJOR WOLF:
    Damn!!! Those customs are SWEET!!! I like the Lex Luthor and The Green Arrow is just Wicked!!! Great Job.
daremo:
    Yup, these are top notch customs. Very original. New uses for CC and Gung Ho.
the_loud_master:
    WTF?! Green Arrow FTW. Oh and the Steel Briagde concept rocks.
GI Guppy the third:
    where'd you get that bow?
flash70:
    dude those are Fraking awesome!!!

    what are your recipes for luthor and green arrow???
karamazov80:
    Yeah, what kind of head did you use for Luthor? I'm interested in finding some non-Joe heads for some customs, and am curious what other toy lines might be somewhat compatible.
Shin Densetsu:
    Coincidentally enough, that Luthor head actually resembles the Serpentor head from the single pack wave 2.
TheTransTorture:
    You got front paged !...NICE !
FOX2:
    great job!! Everything is fantastic
VIPER 48:
    Those customs rock, keep up the good work...
tylerzero:
    Amazing work. I remember getting a Steel Brigade figure as a kid via mail order. Seeing it now after all these years...man that's one goofy-looking helmet.

    But your custom makes it look bad ass nonetheless.
sgtapon:
    is the crossbow from beachhead?
phalanxx:
    wow... frontpaged. I'm honored.

    Glad you guys like them. I've been on a Superhero kick lately, and the joes are working great as bases. And the SB figure just had to be done, since i'm an uber-geek about that character.

    Here's the recipes for the figures.

    Steel Brigade:
    Helmet: Custom cast
    Head: 25th Ace
    Toso & Upper Legs: 25th Flint
    Arms: 25th Cobra Commander
    Lower Legs: 25th Cobra Trooper

    Lex Luthor:
    Head: BBI modern para-troopers.
    Figure: Cobra Commander 25th Ann.

    Green Arrow:
    Head - 25th Comic Pack Duke
    Torso, Upper Arms, & Legs - 25th Comic Pack Torch
    Lower Arms - 25th Comic Pack Ripper
    Leg Quiver - VvV Scarlett backpack
    Arrow Quiver - 25th Storm Shadow (Modded)
    Hood - 30th Annv Star Wars Darth Revan
    Sunglasses - VvV Leatherneck
    Crossbow - 25th Beachhead
    Bow - GoodtoGo Customs Sculpt
TENIME_art:
    What's "BBI"?
phalanxx:
    BBI is a toyline made by blue box toys. I've mostly seen the figures at Toys R Us, but also have seen them at target. They strive to make accurate 1/18th scale military figures.

    Here's a link to their site.

    That is exactly what I will use for my Lex Luthor! Now I just have to wait until the ARMADILLO TANK vs. SERPENTOR’S AIR CHARIOT set comes out.
    Instead of CC torso I will go with the Snake Eyes torso instead.
    I want to make one similar to the JLU one...
