After getting a lot of new 1/6th scale goodies I found a set of BDU's and the first thing that struck me was...this would be perfect for making a 1/6th Manleh..a character more or less guaranteed that sideshow probably will not make (though who knows but probably not anytime soon at least). Now while he doesnt have orange web gear ( i went for something a little less odd) i did give him a kinda web gear that looks like a parachute harness but something that could still be worn after landing on his four point of contact. (parachute to come later). Also...as sideshow does it...I made this one an EXCLUSIVE by including the vest that was with the BDU's (normally its just the figure sans vest but this is the exclusive version ha ha) so Here is the start of what will hopefully be more to come of Argen 7 Heroic Commandos.
and the Exclusive version with vest....

looks good man! The original 1:18th figure was made with the same mold as the O-ring Stalker right?

Cool figure, even though I have no idea re: the original character. Looks like a UN peacekeeper with the blue beret. I like the use of the Russian uniform.

Awesome! Looks great. I love 1:6th stuff. I've been hoping that Hot Toys will do an "African American Female" base figure, soon. I've been dying to do a 1:6th Shooter to hang out with my Sideshows since they'll likely never make her either. :/
