The year is 2071... the world we knew is no more. Economic, political and climatic upheaval give rise to war, famine and widespread biological plagues.
Over 86% of all life that once inhabited the planet is now gone. Vast areas of once fertile ground have become desolate wastelands, savage and uninhabitable. Pockets of life still persist in remote mountain ranges and isolated coastal regions. Society and civilization have been reduced to small bands of survivors, desparately clinging to life in the aftermath. The largest of these groups have migrated to the Pacific Northwest of the former United States of America, establishing an enclave called Citadel. Citadel is a 783 acre "safezone" and home to nearly 1,600 people. Within it's concrete walls and steel caged dome the poulation co-exists in relative peace and harmony. Outside this sanctuary... chaos reigns supreme. Packs of ravenous Wildlings, descendants of mutated and infected humans, roam the Outlands, preying on all forms of life they find. Nocturnal and ferocious, they have begun organized and focused attacks against other strongholds like Citadel. Another threat that mankind faces are automated machines called Deliverers. Originally constructed in an attempt to put an end to the spread of infection, these technological horrors now hunt human and Wildling alike. Encounters with Deliverers are becoming more rare, but are nearly always fatal. As more and more lesser communities continue to fall one by one, Citadel remains mankinds greatest chance for a future. One man Xanther Burgrave, also called Father of the Freeguard, is Citadels only hope...

Definitely a cool looking figure. That helmet/mask is daunting; I think it would scare the heck out of just about anyone to see someone with that on coming at them!

How did you make the Recondo head fit without having it tilt down (or was that the Recondo body that did that)

I think it's the Recondo body that makes the head look down so badly... I didn't have any issues w/ fiting or articulation once the head swap was done...
