Picked up a near complete Rolling Thunder a couple weeks ago, only missing the driver, which means it's time for a ME version. Pretty easy, just a little paint and some parts mixing and matching.
I opted to leave the top OD vs trying to do the baby-poop yellow of the original figure. Likewise, one could probably swap in some Storm Shadow forearms, but I wanted to keep it simple. |

Looks good! But yeah, I'd use those SS arms--uppers and lowers.

So, why hasn't the club or Hasbro figured out how to do this?
Simple yet effective; great custom. |

Looks good. Mine was even lazier with no paint at all. I just straight up used the Walmart Copperhead. Only had to remove Cobra logo but it was expensive cause I used a Brazil Mission Mainframe head to avoid painting.
