I haven't got a name for this guy yet. I think he's an ongoing project and I can see myself acquiring more heads etc to make him in a variety of different outfits. I made him to be a much more physical hands-on fighter than most Joe characters, so the Gnaw torso with the scars really added to that. I added the Thrasher arms because they were physically much bigger and the support/pad looks like it could possibly have some use up-close, maybe a kevlar lining to resist slashes and stabs. The hands are as per a suggestion on here from a Storm Shadow as I like the bare hands and the bandaging around the wrists. I gave him a POC Zartan belt with some Alley Viper knives for his emergency weapons and trimmed down some Thrasher armour for him. I remember reading some interview or other about the costume design for Bane in TDKR and they said they wanted him to look like he picked up bits of his armour and outfit on his travels and put it all together to be functional and suited to purpose on-the-move, a concept I took to heart with this guy.
A future secondary look for him is potentially to have some proper Slaughter's Marauders webbing/harness on a Thrasher body with repainted boots. Any ideas from you guys? |

Looks sweet.....I assume he is going to be a Nok so with all those bladed weapons why not call him Butcher?
Or maybe have him be from Canada and he turns out to be a cannibal and call him Wendigo. |

Butcher's not a bad name. Not sure if he's Nok or not. I'd halfway pictured him as British, but not got much further than that

I think the legs need to be black. That would make the silver kneepads and brown boots pop more. I'm sure I saw a Maximus-style gladiator helmet somewhere. Something like that would look good on this figure.

Third vote for Butcher. Definately a 'Nok with that gear.

Fourth Butcher vote. Definitely a Mad Max look.

Butcher is a great name. But I'd go with "Shank".
