I was driving home from work one day and saw the name of an insurance agent in my town -- Kari N. Aslinger. The name kind of stuck with me, and so in my mind, I developed this GI Joe character. I kept thinking about how I could make a figure based on this name. This custom just sort of came together after I ordered some sunglasses from Aly and needed to do something with Renegades Duke. I also wanted to use the coat from Cade Skywalker. So the parts list is:
Head -- vintage collection Endor Rebel Trooper Torso, legs -- Renegades Duke Arms, Coat -- Cade Skywalker Feet -- Snow Job Here's a little filecard/backstory on this guy. Codename: Lojack File Name: Aslinger, Kerry N. Birthplace: Detroit, Michigan It’s more customary for a terrorist group to employ mercenaries, but if necessary, the U.S. government will employ mercenaries also, although on the books it won’t look that way. And during these times when Cobra forces seem to run rampant, it IS necessary. Lojack is, by day, owner and operator of a pawn shop in Detroit. This serves as an information depot for his night job --- vigilante and mercenary for the GI Joe team. He came highly recommended by the Joe team’s very own Sgt. Stalker. The two grew up together in Detroit. During their early high school years, Stalker became involved with gangs while Lojack detested activity that could hurt others. He’s tough -- he had to be, as he was bullied when he was younger because some would say his name sounded like a girl. He lived with his grandmother who told him, “They can make fun of your first name, but you need to live up to your last name.” His grandmother engrained upon him a strong moral sense. He had an idea for what is right, and he would act upon it. This is where he and Stalker crossed paths in high school. Stalker’s gang was a leading distributor for a local drug dealer, and Lojack witnessed too many of his friends fall victim to the gang activities. He became a thorn in the side of the gang, thwarting their activities every chance he had. Fed up with his adversary, Stalker and his men set him up to appear the Lojack was dealing drugs. Since he was a senior in high school and over the age of 18, this landed Lojack in prison for several years. He would have been in longer, but Stalker cleaned up his act and joined the army. Remorseful for what he had done, Stalker recommended that Lojack be asked to join the Joe team as a civilian mercenary. His job is to gather intel from the streets. It’s well-known that Cobra funds its organization using illegal methods. Lojack won’t stop at gathering information, though. He’ll step in the way of anyone who tries to hurt people in his community, including Cobra. Stalker knows that Lojack is the kind of man with integrity. He’s tough, but he’s compassionate. “This dude earned the name Lojack by severely beating someone who was trying to steal a car. Wasn’t even his car. He doesn’t even own a car! But he’s not gonna let the people he lives and works with become victims. It’s this kind of guy that the Joe team need, no matter which front we’re fighting.”
