So, I was never a big fan of this figure at a kid. I think it was mostly because I received him secondhand and he had no thumbs and a broken crotch. I also always thought he was Australian between his hat and my inability to tell the difference between African Plains and the Australian Bush as a kid (because he looked like a safari hunter). However, I still feel like my ME collection is incomplete without him represented.
I built this head for another project, but though it looked too much like Steve Irwin in the end. Then I decided to merge Recondo with my childish impressions of him, so he's part Steve, part Mick Dundee.

Very good representation of Recondo. I always liked Recondo myself. As a kid I always teamed him up with Dusty.

Wait—he’s not Australian? I’ve always assumed he was an Aussie too!
Anywho, great custom mate! |

All I see is Rowdy Roddy Piper with that head sculpt.
Still, cool custom. Love your work.
