After I brought the ROC Zartan from member COBRA_Seph, I knew I had to make an interesting custom with two heads---one unmasked, the other masked. While the ROC Zartan figure was a good figure, he had a couple of flaws that bothered me. One, his arms had limited articulation, a similar problem I found in the Shockblast and 25th Anniversary COBRA Troopers. There's nothing I could do about it unless I cut off part of the body, which I didn't wish to do, especially when ROC Zartan seemed fairly scarce to find(at least in my experience). The other problem was his skirt, which restricted movement on his legs. That was easily solved after I removed it and replaced it with a Shockblast belt.
Formula: Heads: POC Beach-Head, ROC Zartan Hat, vest and scope: Pit Commando Rest: ROC Zartan Thing is, I don't feel his uniform really limits him to naval operations...he can also be used for jungle missions or jumping out of an airplane in a parachute. By the way, since recently I've completed my Shockwave army of 25 ME figures, I have an album where you can view all of them: https://www.flickr.com/photos/113336...7650753263375/
