He looks so much better. Grunt was my first Joe.

I like this figure a lot! Nice mods to the web gear. Also, you've got him in that iconic pose, so kudos for doing so!

You're all wrong, he looks like a young Sam Neill.
Great work on the figure though! Have you considered adding one of those removable turtle-neck collars that came on the Steel Brigade figure? It might not look right on him though. |

This is the PM I got from Spin on how he did it. I ended up using a strap piece from the back of a 25th webgear. Quote:

It's very important to shave the holster detail than enough that it will hold a curved loop shape but thick enough that inserting and removing the knife won't tear it. It's also very important to use just enough glue to affix each end of the loop you make to the back of the strap without having it bleed into the knife (otherwise you'll fuse the blade to the strap and it won't be a functional detail anymore). Not easy, but worth it IMHO. Good luck!
