So, I didn't like the Chuckles head (plus mine came with lots of paint missing on his hair). So I had to change the head.
The other thing is that as a kid, one of the things I loved about Barricade was his bunker buster. Sure it was unrealistic and all, but it's just something I really needed to have for my Barricade. And the head reveal: So as you can see, I used a club TNT head. The hair is swept the wrong way but he has the same silly smirk that the vintage one had so I figured it's better than the Chuckles head that is too long and is missing a lot of paint. Here's the comparison to the vintage head. After some playing around, I discovered I can probably modify the backpack to hold all his weapons and still be able to hold his bunker buster if I wanted that look. I haven't done it yet, but I will be drilling some holes in the bottom ledge of the backpack for things to slot into there. For now, the parts are just staying by the elastic. Might drill the holes over the weekend and post more pics.

Nice!!! I will have to use a Blowtorch head as I sold my TNT. I don't think I have an extra Blowtorch head though. I haven't come across that figure much in my hunting over the years.

I actually do, but for the life of me, I can't find it. I wanted to find the one that had the best paint but was only able to find one in my bin.

Great job, I absolutely agree the Chuckles head was a bad choice. The TNT/Blowtorch head was one of two "better" choices that I can think of, the other being Kwinn's.

So I got around to modifying the backpack to store all his gear. If I wanted to, I can still put the bunker buster thing on there too.
