I did a modern Rampart last year and the only thing I didn't like were the legs. The lime green on the Airborne legs really throw things off. I finally got an extra set of Steel Brigade legs so now I think I'm truly happy with him. The legs color actually matches the color of his cap, but the flash makes them look lighter.
Let me know what you think. Closeups of his head with goggles on and off.

Nice swap from the AB legs. Using the heavy Arctic SE jacket/arms/gloves make him look like an arctic character though.

Haha...took a while before I realized the Han Solo reference.
As for looking like an arctic trooper, I tried to make him as close to the vintage one as I could with the parts I had without having to paint. I always thought the vintage one looked really bundled up too though. Guess it's kinda cold on the shoreline.
