#84 MAUS (based on Marvel ARAH comic character "Schrage")
W.A.S.P.
Origin: Germany
Season: 4

This one is totally ispired by OreoBuilder's great recreation of the Schrage character. Thanks bro! I overall prefer his green look for more color range within the team, and also went with the "Early War" body to get even more color with the gray pants.

MAUS is the oldest member working with W.A.S.P., he has seen more battles than any of them combined and is a valued military strategist. He was brought along from the German branch to assist in all military operations concerning the recovery of any technology from the unearthed secret lab. He also does not trust the Russians to share their findings & is is uncertain that they will keep their pact throughout the mission. The strong silent type, MAUS is curious about the secrets revealed in the expedition that lies ahead!

#85 MISERY (based on Marvel ARAH comic character "Daina")
W.A.S.P.
Origin: Romania
Season: 4

I wanted to get the Club's Oktober Guard set badly when it was released, but did not attend the Con and missed the after-window. With that said, I am glad to be recreating that great international force with the new WWII catalog from Marauders, which I think in many ways, betters the Club's offering. Daina (along with her many looks) was planned early on when recreating my version of the Oktober Guard from the new Marauders WWII catalog. I always like to have as many females represented in my Universe as possible. After going through her various figures I went for a union of looks from the early Marvel Comics (& the Daina '05 figure), plus her more modern interpretations (with the Tanker hat.) Very happy with how this one turned out!

MISERY gets her code name from her attitude. She usually gets a lot of flack from her fellow soldiers, and goes above and beyond taking the worst of missions to prove her worth. One of the very few former alliance members she was close to, died a couple years back while in combat, & now she wears his tanker hat as a tribute. Despite her negative namesake, and sour disposition, she is very bright & an expert sharpshooter. RED HAMMER says she's in 2nd command of this operation, but she feels it's more like being in 5th command, behind the 2 Russians and the 2 Germans. She is interested in seeing if the MTF shows up at the secret base, (which was suggested at the briefing), as she may be interested in what options they have in their international ranks.

W.A.S.P.
Origin: Russia
Season: 4

When listing out who I would create for my new former Soviet based W.A.S.P. team (formerly the Oktober Guard) all the parts were there to make a great Big Bear homage. I usually like to go for the more obscure versions, as well as versions that were not offered in the modern era when creating my MTF Universe, so I opted for the black rather than the green!

BADGER gets his code name from the same "don't care" attitude as the animal. He does not like his teammates and they don't like him, he also detests other nations getting into what he considers "is in the greater good for mother Russia." He's nasty, & hoping for a grizzly fight with the MTF when they arrive, because he likes them even less. He is not usually sent on recovery missions, but his tracking skills in this remote part of Moldova are needed, and he is the very best. The mission will be ground based as it is very difficult to land any aircraft at the secret base's rough terrian, so BADGER will also be handling the land transport until they need to travel by foot.

With a similar build, but a different head and with different gear(bullet bandoliers) you could make a custom Big Ben too.

They’re fantastic! I especially like the “not” Red Shadow.

Yes! I thought of that was well! It's definitely a possibility and I appreciate the suggestion!

As I mentioned with Schrage, you always inspire me so I am so glad if I can inspire you!
