I've been playing with the idea of making an original Joe for quite some time, and had the rough basis for the design, but it never came together until now...
Here's "Mongoose" ![]() ![]() I wondered why there was never a Joe codenamed "Mongoose" ( I think IDW made one later on, but I'm an ARAH guy), and I wanted to make a fiesty female commando that was armed to the teeth. partially inspired by Vasquez from Aliens. ![]() ![]() ![]() She came together from spare parts of an upcoming project, and actually uses very few "Classified" parts. Just works out like that sometimes ;-) Enjoy!

Looks good. I got that same figure for the bits to make a Cyberpunk inspired Medi-Vipee. I'm curious to see what you use them on.

I think she looks great and makes a good addition.
Hey actually as far as the name goes, Larry did create a character named Mongoose in the ARAH comic. He is one of Larry's favorite recurring original characters from when he introduced about six or seven new Joes in ARAH. Maybe... five years back I think. Most of them didn't get much recurring screentime after their first appearance but he brought Mongoose into stories a lot. Lots of Joes share great codenames with other characters so it's all good anyway.
