This is another "improvement" upon a figure from the Toys R Us Exclusive RoC Desert 5-pack.
Parts: Entire figure (RoC Law), Submachinegun (25th Anniversary Shipwreck), Tactical Vest (RoC Pit Commando), Helmet (RoC Law), Baton (RoC Law), Dog (RoC Order). Nothing particularly special about this custom. It is a straight repaint of the RoC Law & Order figures that came in the Toys R Us Exclusive 5-pack. I didn't really have an issue with the desert camouflage, but I wanted something closer to the classic look, so I painted them according to that color scheme. The original figure had his shirt tucked in and the sleeves rolled up, but I liked the overall look of this when it was finished. The hardest part of this whole thing was painting the dog's fur to look somewhat realistic! Last edited by Sgt Humpty; 08-29-2012 at 03:09 PM.. |

I like it bro it looks great! But its something about is orginal colors that bother me I love the fig as a kid and now but he just dosent match and I think that's what holds me back from doing him in classic colors

I always loved Law & Order, even if they "tried it the other way".

That looks pretty clean to me and certainly an improvement over the other!

Looks good, and I commend you on a job well done.
I have a few ideas for Law I'll share. What about PoC Dusty's normal head? Will a vintage Law helmet fit it? I don't have a Law helmet, or I'd try it. Seems like he has a lot of ammo on that vest for the 2 guns he has. Would a repainted Wild Bill vest look more like the original?

Your comments were not taken in any sort of negative way. I considered making his entire uniform the same color as his trousers and leaving the vest black. But that might have been a little too much realism for G.I. Joe! |
