Two shelves... one Joes, one TFs
Organized by faction, series, etc Top Shelf Subteams Tiger Force Man, I wish we'd get some more of these... how hard would it be to repaint Tripwire, Roadblock, Bazooka, Dusty, etc... Night Force I based Outback's pose on Special Missions Issue 6 Python Patrol Really looking forward to adding Tele-vipers and Officer from the GIJCC set

Joe Shelf
squeezed a ton of figures in here... had to make some sacrifices like Arctic Snake Eyes and Pilot Scarlett to keep this strictly vintage ARAH figures I (obviously) really like acrylic risers... with figures that are all the same height, it really helps show them all off. These are 2" deep steps, which is juuuuuust large enough to hold Joes. Larger is more stable, but to squeeze these all on here, I had to go with these. I'd been holding this spot for Hit&Run forever!

Cobra Individuals & Teams
There really aren't that many vintage Cobra figures that are individual people, and even less that got made in the 25th line... I wanted to show of the actual individual people while having enough space for squads of (almost) all of the troop builders released in the 25th line Cobra individuals I really like how Serpentor's snake fits with Hooded CC, and though they love to topple over, I like having the Baroness draped on Destro like this... Cobra Teams These are my favorite teams... each 3 man squad has a leader in a different uniform. The ROC redecos were perfect for getting leaders here. Range Vipers Finally found a reuse for the original Cobra soldiers (the ones that didn't have hair). That gray mask is a nice fit with the Range Viper gray Eels These are a bitch to stand with their flippers on...

Cobra Teams
...more 3 man + leader squads. There's one each of the 25th drivers (sorta fudging with the Tele-viper) but I THINK the only 25th troop builders I don't have any of are the Ninja Vipers. I couldn't bring myself to buy four of those... Para-vipers with Firefly Love these, but had to trim down the hoses on everybody. For a leader, I figured Firefly would do this kind of ops... just swapped the forearms and glued on the kneepads and flippers on the calves B.A.T.S. As soon as I saw the first images of the Battle Damaged B.A.T., I knew I was going to do this... it's based on the Star Wars Clone Trooper Unleashed Snow Serpents Love that these guys can stand really well without stands... Ninja-Kus I liked the look of these, but thought they needed something to differentiate them from plain ol' Storm Shadow. I used the soft goods cloaks from Star Wars Saga Collection Garindan Iron Grenadiers Crimson Guards Used the Crimson Viper officer body from the TRU 3-pack to give Tomax & Xamot their proper CG battle unis Vipers Red Ninjas Strato Viper & F.A.N.G. Not exactly the Night Raven, but ehh...

Cartoon Shelf (Resolute & ARAH)
Resolute ARAH Duke In case it's not obvious, I based this off of the end of the '87 movie intro where Duke picks up the fallen flag and flies it up to the top of the Statue of Liberty

Original 13 vs Blue shirts
Team Cobra It's kinda hard to see, but there's 5 generic foot soldiers of the "cartoon" troopers from the second 5 pack... the others are specialized troopers, mostly with Marauder's replacement weapons Jet Trooper, Sniper, & Heavy Ordinance Original 13 (how long did we wait for Zap to finally complete this?!)

Ridiculousy organized? I don't see it. But this is the best action display I've ever seen.
