Because Hasbro's 3.75 Paramount figures can't go without spring-loaded, over-sized, hard-to grip, impossible-to-lift-in-earth's-gravity kinda weapons (did I mention the spring-loaded??!!)...
And because Hasbro's 3.75 Disney movie figures got jealous and tried to carry the same, if less rectangular, kind of gizmos... Well, this seemed kinda obvious to try.. HD likes this one: Yeah, Poe wishes he were V1 Retaliation Duke. Last edited by ARBCO Avenue; 06-13-2020 at 01:44 PM.. |

MORE PICS ADDED:
Messin’ around with a few more black-clad armored Joes, most with SW weapons. It's like a nightmare from 2009...only I like it this time. Last edited by ARBCO Avenue; 01-21-2018 at 03:42 AM.. |

Thanks everyone! Taking these parts out of their originally disappointing contexts— (ROC untrue to ARAH, big goofy weapons and gizmos being untrue to the Paramount and Disney movie figures)—well, to me it really showcases the talents of Hasbro’s toy designers.
Quote:
Thank you Foxtrot! Using these parts together seems to kinda work somehow. Thanks Phantro! I hesitated on showing that one because the city strike mask was a project I had shown before, but the SW wings took the figure in a completely different direction. Thank you Range, it was that piece of gear from an otherwise undesireable 2 pack, that 1st sparked this weird idea. Last edited by ARBCO Avenue; 01-13-2018 at 05:18 PM.. |

Great idea, the weapons look like they belong with the Joe figures.

Poe headsculpts from the Last Jedi are both pretty good. This is the single carded one. The one that comes with the vehicle is possibly better but from what I’ve seen usually has derpy eye paint.
