I do like the overall look of the Red Shadows, and do own some of the European exclusives o-ring figures, but to be honest I do not know much about Action Force and his enemies, I never read the comics. But I had this spare War Machine head and thought it could be a nice update for Red Laser, it would help to set him apart from a Crimson Cobra Commander. I did some research and I find out he is Japanese, the Red Shadows's chief scientist and a ninja (I think this is too much but added some swords in pictures anyway)!! The fact that he is Japanese made me like even more of my choice for the head.
I also discovered that in Germany he was released without the skull and bones sigil, so here is Red Laser German Variant (kidding, I in fact forgot about the sigil ... it was probably my mind trying to save me the trouble of painting it) |

Very interesting . It doesn't quite work as Red Laser for me though. I think the head would look good as a Red Jackal update. I like that you've got the Shadows on your mind though.

I like it. I like the creative license you took with this figure. I'm not from the UK, so I didn't follow the action force story line either. It doesn't bother me that he's not a spot on recreation of the original. I like that he stands apart from a crimson cobra commander.
