Hello 'Tankers,
Been awhile since I posted a custom, so I figured I'd hop back in. I can't lie this one was greatly inspired by the ST custom done by GI Joseph, with a few tweaks to his recipe. As soon as I saw Joseph's, I knew I HAD to make one, so I jumped on eBay and ordered all the vintage pieces in one sitting...for about 10 bucks total. My recipe is based on Josephs with a few differences: -GIJoe Greenshirt -Torso and Legs -Breaker (RAM Cycle) - Head (I wanted to use the vintage helmet, and Breaker's big ol' head was the best fit) painted hair and eyebrows black - Viper (5 pack) - boots (I liked the highlight on the toes of his boots **shrugs**) - Dr. Mindbender - belt (modded) - Custom sculpted arm gear Here he is:

never liked super trooper, but this looks like a great translation to 25th style.

Thanks guys. Like I said, the inspiration to finally do this custom comes from GI Joseph's version.
@CaptDP - I custom sculpted the bands on his arms with Apoxy Sculpt...and as far as the vintage chrome gear, I picked it all up on ebay. I lucked out and found all the vintage chrome pieces pretty cheap and in GREAT condition. @dragongravy - following Joseph's recipe, I used Pit Commando hands. They had to be modded a bit to fit the Cobra Flint forearms

I'm too old to remember super trooper, but it looks good.
