Figures Falcon (Star Brigade) by AxonRey

Firstly, credit to Steevy Maximus for bringing the existence of this item to my attention. My nominal research revealed that this is all that's truly known of the cancelled Star Brigade Falcon:

Additonally, I read that he was to use the arms and legs of Payload 87. So, for my build, I looked to mimic the proto torso in an ME approximation, with the primary aesthetic I drew on being the armor looks to it, especially the shoulders, and then "prorated" the 87 Payload, using the arms and legs that were used on the ME FSS version.

Since there was no color scheme, I struggled mightily, first debating on some of the common reds and blues used in Star Brigade, but in truth, that line was all over the place. So instead I decided to use the same color scheme from my concept Ninja Force Falcon.

Here's the result.

Very solid work. I like how it turned out.

WOW! I love this! The build is awesome, the painting superb, & I really like that color scheme! Bravo good sir! Was not familiar with Star Brigade Falcon even as a concept, so love seeing something new for one of my favorite Joes!

Cool. Always love stuff from the preproduction vault come to plastic life.

Sweet lord…..Axe that is just perfection. I never knew about star brigade falcon but you executed it perfectly. Id buy this in a heartbeat. My onlu suggestion would be to add a pistol belt

I absolutely wanted to but didn't have anything on hand that would work. Need one of those Elite Viper belts, but I do plan to add one.

PS: A Steel Brigade build inspired by your Falcon is now in the works... that's how much I like it!
