Hey there my fellow Tankers- so I'm finally getting a chance to upload some finished pictures for you- First off my intro- I've been collecting Joes since 1982...have the complete collection all the way up till I graduated in 1992...It's been a few years- the prize of my collection is of course the FLAGG- which my father picked up at a garage sale for $20.00- complete.
I stopped collecting for many many years until the 25th collection came along and sucked me back in again- and there's been no looking back- hated the ROC movie and didn't collect any of the toys...until they all started showing up at the discount stores and now I have all of them too...DAM YOU! I have a big appreciation for the new G.I. Joe line and like where they are going with the figures and and I also really like the new cartoon and I think it is a great retelling of a classic story... so this is my first custom work I have ever done in the G.I. Joe world- I have plans to build a large scale Cobra Island that will hold my Terror Dome- and the island is going to need some watch towers...I saw the cheap PTE tower at Big Lots and TOTALLY ripped it down and built it back up. THe following items are all built from scratch- the sandbags, the WORKING spotlight, all the wood planks, the first-aid kit inside and workstation. This is a mini diorama that included the BEST Snake Eyes ever- who was just missing Timber so I gave him one... So- here it is, let me know what you think and I'll get my second custom project up really soon. Thanks and enjoy

Wow!!! Awesome job. Okay, you noted that this is the PTE Tower you got from Big Lots? I think I saw this. You just got me in the mood to buy it. I never thought to use the other military toys to mix in with my Joes. Won't steal your idea, but you are an inspiration. Can't wait to see your Cobra Island. Will it have the Volcano?
