Inspired by Prowl's excellent Recoil custom from a little while ago I set about whipping together my own (in the old school style).
Recipe: head: ROC Zartan goggles: ROC Firefly body: ROC Dusty (from cancelled wave 3 alphas) webgear: 25th Cobra Officer grenades on webgear: ROC MARS pack trooper belt and pistol: ROC Viper Commando Rifle: ROC Desert Duke with knife glued on Not sure where the backpack came from but I just drilled a hole and glued the Arctic Tele-Viper antenna in. Really the only full on custom I've done other than fixing up my Wet-Suit. Be kind reference: http://www.yojoe.com/action/89/89card/recoil.jpg |

Thanks
Yeah simple is the keyword. I'm not really at the point yet where I'm comfortable taking a brush to the body so this worked out well. |

Looks awesome!
After seeing a few Recoils lately, I want to make one too. I'm looking for a Jungle Ripcord if anyone's got one to spare and also the goggles from the TRU Firefly.

If you have trouble rounding up the goggles, you should try Resolute Baroness' glasses. I was kinda tossing back on forth on which to use but decided against using glue (as I had the goggles available)

I don't want to have to paint...haha. I actually ran out of silver paint, which is what's stopping me from posting my updated Monkeywrench custom. It's still got the black Baroness goggles and I don't want to post it until I get a chance to get some silver paint.
