Tunnel Rat Tunnel Rat was one of the solid figures from the original 6-pack, so I stuck close to recipe for parts and colors. He is basically a repaint of most of the 25th figure. I swapped out the torso because I felt that the original was too skinny and cartoony (I also needed it for another custom). Head, legs, scarf, holster, weapon: 25th Tunnel Rat Torso, arms: 25th Shipwreck v2 Gung-Ho Gung-Ho's recipe was tricky to nail down. He did not look right using 25th parts. When 50th Gung-Ho was released, it helped define the figure in a big body frame. It allowed me to rebuild him with bigger modern parts. That meant moving away from the original's jacket to a tank top, but I think it still works. Head: DTC Guillotine Torso, arms: Ret Roadblock Hands: Ret Firefly Legs: 50th Gung-Ho Head band: 25th Hard Master Bullet belt: Ret Kwinn Weapon: Marauder
