Figures Custom Cobra Scorcher

The Break down...
Head, Upperarms, body and upper legs are from ROC Mars trooper.
Helmet:cobra air trooper
Lowerlegs, gloves chest gear, 50th Blowtorch.

I had some parts I wasn't doing anything with and came up with this. The Helmet was modified with the air hose from an Ace helmet. And did the quick N Easy paint job on the upper arms and leg pads. Also painted the BT accessories to match.

That helmet looks really good wit the chest plate.
I get this really awesome Storm Trooper vibe form it somehow.

Keep rocking man!

Thanks man, I added a pic of the back. I think you were seeing the gun hanging from the Ax on the backpack.

The parts are actually from a 50th BT that I used as an experiment with dye. The hard plastic torso and upper legs after 6 days in the crock pot barely took dye I mean barely! But the softer plastics took the dye well after only a few hours. The lower legs have only gold paint added the yellow has been dyed the chocolate brown color.

This is a nice use of the extra Blowtorch figures that we are getting with the Heat-Vipers... I like the use of the helmet, too!
