I know people, who have been collecting since 1982 like myself have a soft spot for the original Joes.
And I know some people can either live or live without them. I wanted a Tan clutch for a while now and after seeing Grand Slam come out this past year I began to think Tan Clutch may not be far behind. I cant wait any longer for a day that may never come. I'm probably not the first and I'm sure I wont be the last to paint a Clutch tan. Last edited by HydroMan; 05-27-2014 at 12:01 AM.. |

Nice, I took the lazy way out and just put Clutch's head on Target exclusive Steeler with Recondo's arms. I still have to paint Clutch's vest but it held the chest together so well I didn't bother to glue it back. I know sloppy customizing.
Nice job. I love the vintage figures myself and am afraid after this years complaints on the FSS 13th Grad Slam figure that we won't get an official Tan Clutch. I am one of the few who really wanted one that I could paly with and not worry about paint rub. More's the pitty.

Pretty cool, good paint job. I wish Hasbro or the Club would make a tan Clutch, always liked that figure. With the new Vamp Mk. II coming out later this year, we really could use one.

Tan Clutch needs to be done, but not as a 13th FSS figure. That would definitely spawn some nerd rage! I think, if they did it just like tan Grunt, some would be disappointed, but everyone would know what to expect.
I'm glad the club put out red pads Grand Slam, but with his 2007 parts, he was underwhelming and a disappointment as the 13th figure. |

Believe it or not I took the tan Grunt body and gave him green Clutch's arms and I used a Dollar General Duke's feet. I couldn't match the tan Grunt color so I ended up painting the whole damn figure anyway. Wasted some cash trying to go the easy route and ended up doing it the hard way.
Would like a Rumbler figure that would be sweet! Last edited by HydroMan; 05-28-2014 at 09:48 PM.. |
