looks cool, get him a better sniper rifle though...not that a Dragunov isn't good, it's just not a rifle that a US agent would use.
Plus if you have a lot of Cobra troopers it doesn't stand out.

That was my only problem with it too. Hahaha, you called it a "toboggan", which is a "knit cap" (or "knitted cap") everywhere besides the South.
I'll always call it a toboggan cap, but apparently that's a sled to most Northerners and folks not from the Southern U.S. |

nice work lowlight! he's one of my faves. yes, the hat is odd. it is too large, but it's the pointiness of it that is distracting. i don't know if you have the orig. in hand, which always helps, but i think he could use some more gear. i don't mean to nit pick, but there are some details missing, zippers, clips, buckles, and body packs.
not trying to pic you figure apart, cuz it's looking good. a few minor tweaks and you got a real nice modern era custom update! |

There, I did a new head. I liked the removable hat even if it was on the large side. I have the original figure and his head is HUGE! Either way this head looks better than the one I did originally.

Broken arrow toys makes tobogans (yes I'm from down south, not far from roadblocks home town) or knit caps if you will, for 1/18 scale figures. Would most likey fit your original head.

I thought about taking an Indy German and cutting the bill off the cap, and modding the cap area with ridges... Did you do something similar? What base head did you use?
