Now we get onto 2010!
This is Dr. Biggles Jones, from the GI Joe/Transformers comics, a interesting character that replaced the role of Dr. Mindbender during some time. My first modern mould Joe custom. Here a quick mod; I got 5 or 6 Crimson Shadow Troopers without helmet, and not really liking how big the helmet looks on, I decided to cast Crimson Guard vintage heads and replacing them. [/url] Here is Charbroil, in a customized version of what would have looked like if Hasbro had introduced him into the Slaughter's Marauders. This is Deep Freeze, a Cobra ninja that uses nytrogen powered swords to freeze his opponents. Here is Fireless, a custom of a Cobra Firefighter and nemesis of Barbecue. He is specialized in dangerous and toxic fires in laboratories and armories. Here is Deadshot, the character from the DC Universe made with a GI Joe figure.

I like the camo on Deep Freeze. It would look great on Snow Serpents.

Thanks . I got the inspiration from a custom by Chad & Matthew I think, adding a bit more detail in it. I don't usually make 3.75 versions of superheroes, but this was before the craze started with the Marvel Universe and all this, and it seemed fun.
I bring you a few more; A few more of 2010; Lampreys Marine; an attempt on a more realistic Lampreys, to make use of the then new found technology of casting heads in greenish clear resin . Sea Otter; a joe sailor, one to complement the USS Flagg (if I ever have it haha) or other GI Joe boats. https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6bitXU6uY.../seaotter1.jpg These are Serpentor's Guards, when I learned of Coils and Serpentor's organization in the modern comics I thought it would be cool to create some new soldiers for Serpentor.

Here are a few more of 2010;
Urban Trooper; the GI Joe version of the Green Shirt for urban warfare. I thought the Green shirts were not very useful in many terrains, and that GI Joe should have specialized troopers for different warfares. So, I rudimentarily casted with plasticene Blast off helmet, as it is not very much seen, and made a few troopers for various circumstances, this is the Urban one. I left this idea, so maybe now I will consider him a specialized Joe, I don't know. All hail Serpentor! Everything must conform now to the new emperor! hence, a new outfit must be found for the regular Vipers, lest we confuse in Cobra's Civil War! so it was born the Serpentor Viper. One of the first things I did after discovering casting procedures, was to cast Vipers heads . The casting was not perfect, but good enough for me. Aaand, wondering what more Viper I could do, it ocurred to me a Red Shadows Viper would be cool . In myJoeverse, he is a renegade Viper that now works for the Red Shadows. Hope you like 'em.

Thanks. In person, they look a bit "squashy", not perfectly round, but from front and back they look ok . Now I know how to do them perfectly, but don't have the time :( .
Here we continue; Wombat; as a source of inspiration, I reviewed all my vehicles looking for vehicles that didn't come with a driver (a thing that I hated when I was a kid - and I still do!). I thought the Mobile Battle Bunker needed a pilot, and so here it is. Maybe I did it a bit too Cobra like, but anyway. CLASSIFIED Viper; a Viper so secret, nobody knows what it does, or who it is . I just went recombining parts, used a cool Lanard mask, and thought it looked too strange for words, and so I came up with the idea. Reload Viper; a viper made to repair and resupply BATs on the battlefield. Their uniform is as is so BATs don't shoot at them, to make them think they are just another BAT ;) . I purposed the huge empty backpack of a eco warrior to carry bits and pieces. Hydrus; named after a zone in Mars, this is the new vehicle that will bring Mars under Cobra's control! I had this vehicle in very poor condition, and thought it had some sort of lunar rover vibes. Here is the Hydrus, a ruthless Cobra vehicle to dominate the lands of Mars itself! designed by Destro and piloted by the new Mars Vipers.

You come up with new and rather interesting builds. I like the CLASSIFIED Viper's gun and how it attaches to his backpack.

Thanks . Up to this day, I still don't know where it came that gun, looks like something of GI Joe extreme or a close line, like Aliens.
More; Here is Zhen Wenli, the ruthless commander of the Golden Dragons. The Golden Dragons are China's newest team of specialized soldiers, to fight against GI Joe and Cobra. From left to right; Warmask; renegade Samurai Daodan; Obliterator driver Snake Shadow; Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow impersonator, renegade minor Arashikage ninja Zhen Wenli; Leader Dr. Yao; evil scientist Tmurtakan; martial arts mongol expert Here is the Obliterator, a vehicle for my group of the Golden Dragons (chinese answer to GI Joe and the Oktober Guard). Made over a Snow Cat with a Rolling Thunder missile. I have more individual pics of the members, you can look them up in my blog in my signature.
