Hey everyone,
heres my tripwire update thats inspired by ceraurus's excellent custom. he actually did have shoulder guards from the roc pit commandos vest/ attached but they were too fragile and broke off the first time i moved his arms so until i can figure out a better way to keep them attached he remains slightly unprotected. You cant really see in the pictures but i have tried to weather him with the tamiya weathering kit my cameras not great but you should get the jist. head n gear-tripwire steel brigade-arms and torso bomb jacket-renegades trooper legs-renegades trooper blast sheild-roc commando everything else is from my bits box and of course tunnel rats bomb disposal robot. let me know what you guys think. |

This is great! As a kid, I never really liked Tripwire, but more and more lately I've taken a liking to him. I think it's because of awesome customs like this that show Tripwire's true potential.

I have to say, as someone who waited for EOD at more than one IED site: Brilliant effort into making a plausible IED! XD
And the custom itself it just stunning. Brilliant - at one point, I genuinely hope Hasbro puts something like this together. Tom

Know how I know this? Because you posted a declassified flyer which was meant for fun as a NEWS ITEM. No one would ever tell you anything because the VERY FIRST THING you would do is post it here. Probably incorrectly. |

Brilliant.
Front Page this espcially in case it'll help Hasbro 'borrow' the idea. From this and what others have exampled with the O13 it really wouldn't be hard to do great 30th style editions with the existing catalog of parts. |

Great work done here.
Tripwire was my very first Joe back in 1983, so consider you idea "borrowed" to make an updated Tripwire of my own.

Agreed, I'm gonna paint my bot for sure now!
Most importantly, Tripwire finally looks cool. Great pics too!
