#285/X80. KANAGAWA (SHINOBI SQUAD VERSION) (based on GI Joe Sigma 6 Kamakura Airglide Ninja)
MTF Shinobi Squad Shinobi Squad Version/Version 2 Origin: USA Season 8 When the Cyber-Ops body dropped I knew I had my next Kamakura, & the first figure in my MTF Universe to be inspired by Sigma 6! I don't have much connection to the S6 figure line but I do to the anime series. One that probably would have went much better without Hasbro's later involvement that lead to Japanese anime studio Gonzo being to embarrassed of the show to list it in their filmography. I would have had this figure out a bit earlier, but was waiting to get an extra GI Joe Retro Cobra Officer head for him. Even though I'm normally against using retail GI Joe heads on my kitbashes/customs, I felt that Officer head was a perfect match for the S6 Kamakura look (& also ended up using his mortar for my Downtown homage, so that was an extra win!) The original figure's fan-weapon inspired the left arm exo-add-ons, & the sword is from Vitruvian Amory/Boss Fight! KANAGAWA (as DEAD EYE'S apprentice), was chosen for Shinobi Squad for their maiden mission in Japan in the unique role of air support. The team of 8 boasts some of the most impressive martial artists ever assembled by the military & offers an unprecedented chance for them to infiltrate the rogue factions of ninja, yakuza, & upstarts vying for control at Japan's most vulnerable hour. As the "eye in the sky" he will be fast tracking intel as well as joining the fight with his new spinning tri-blade combat knife! Although one of the least experienced team members, KANAGAWA is a fast learner, & sees YAKU as both a teammate & a rival, looking to impress both DEAD EYE & YUREI KAGE with his ability to handle any obstacles in the Shinobi Squad's sights! SHINOBI SQUAD: 1. GINZA 2. TAK 3. YAKU (Shinobi Squad Version) 4. SHIN HADDO SENSEI 5. KUNOICHI KAEDE 6. YUREI KAGE (Shinobi Squad Version) 7. KANAGAWA (Shinobi Squad Version) 8. DEAD EYE (Shinobii Squad Version) (coming soon!) |

#281 WILD WOLF (STRIKE FORCE VERSION) (based on GI Joe VvV Night Force Wild Bill )
Marauder Task Force Origin: USA Season 5 Wild Bill has been on my radar for a long time, he was one of the first figures my brother's & I had as kids, & much like his rival Wild Weasel I have been looking to add him to "My MTF Universe." I just wasn't sure the catalog was there to build a good representation for awhile, even with Chicken Fried Toys having some good hats! Then they announced the Cavalry Officer & I figured my WB-stand-in was there, so I thought I was all set... But then I ordered a head from Vitruvina Armory, thinking I could use it for a Gung-Ho custom I am planning in the far future. Got the head in & realized it would not work because of the port for a hair piece it has in the back & that I did not know about prior lol. Looking through Yo Joe for some more bald goatee guys & bam... Bill was back!

Great round of figures SB, you touched upon a few different eras of Joe with this batch (VvV, S6 and 25th). And you got to finish up the Mutant Girls, nicely done!

Big thanks bro! Under the Ghoul mask IS a balaclava, as that's the only MGR head you can use that does not stress the mask because of the nose! Thanks again for always checking in & of course the kind words! |

SB you're killing i with the Mutant Girl Squad and congrats of course for completing the trio. I got to say Yoshie is also my favorite of the three without taking anything away from the other two as they're also looking groovy! Keep up the use of BFS parts, it didn't take you long to masterfully refine those builds as well.
Then Ghoul looks very imposing and mean looking. Very creative as it's pure parts bin build! Really digging the simplicity in Wild Wolf, I think he looks fantastic and one of my favorite MTF builds of yours. Finally Kanagawa is a beautiful addition to your Shinobi squad, love the color scheme! Awesome additions bro. |
