Sweet man. I’ll take a look to see the parts I have. Might just buy that newer figure and start from there.

I received these figures over the weekend. They've been extensively reviewed online. I've seen some point out some flaws in the "Fearless Tiger" figure, but they all have some flaws. Here they are with some tweaks I was playing around with.
I want to focus on the PAP Automatic Rifleman: He looks great with his helmeted head and gear except for his wrists. But without gear and alternate head you get a wonky figure. The alt head sucks, and the torso to arms to legs ratio sucks. Still his boots and gear are great and the torso looked like it would work on a bigger figure so I decided I wanted to salvage the parts I like and bash it onto the popular Rego figure. Now I give you this guy and his G.I.Joe/Steel Brigade pals: I think he looks much better without gear than the original Rifleman figure, and with his gear: Head - JT Gregson Torso, Knee Pads, and Boots - PAP Auto Rifleman Arms - Hells Grim Reapers (I think) Hands - Viper Squad Waist and Legs - Rego Vest - PAP Auto Rifleman Helmet - Wasteland 3 pack (I think) Rest - JT Fodder A lot of fun to photograph...

Pretty good review. Since you do so much of Joy Toy, Have you thought about just reviewing the joy toy lines?
There’s a review thread https://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-j...uick-feedback/ And a dedicated thread just for joy toy: https://www.hisstank.com/forum/toys/...urce-line.html

I have done some reviews in that forum and might do it in the future. However, as I said at the beginning, these figures have all been reviewed online. Stimulant or Awesome Action Toys as he appears on Youtube has linked his great reviews in that forum, as well as others possibly. I didn't feel like my critiques of this figure warranted a full review, but I thought it might be useful for anyone thinking of buying this figure for customizing.

This guy is has a G.I. Joe head, hood, and vest. Everything else is JoyToy. Obvious similarities with Modern Warfare Ghost (not the newest one). Only thing painted was the skull and some gear.
With some of the guys that look inspired by MW. Background could be Gaz, Price, Soap, and another version of Price One action shot from our last snow I took back in March

OG Ghost was way cooler.

Is this Shockwave, Wide Scope, or just some random SWAT guy?
I use him as a compromise between v1 and v2 Shockwave with Wide Scopes's dog thrown in for fun. He still knocks doors, but he also has his K9, Boomhauer. Only painted the neck to match his mask and a few minor details. All JoyToy except for head, helmet, and dog.
