Some simple stuff, I had to copy the pilot idea, self explanatory.
I wanted an updated version of the black Cobra Commander so there it is, Resolute CC without his cape and skirt. The problem is his neck is too tall, so I added Pilot Destro's scarf thing to hide it, I think it looks ok. Finally I have a not very accurate Wide Scope. He's made from the Firefly from the TRU set, the new carded one will work better but I haven't seen one yet. Head is Battle Armor Cobra Commander and the chest protector is from pilot Destro, I sanded the Cobra symbol off with sandpaper, 800 grit I believe. Obviously he needs his leg guards and hat but this will do for now. Last edited by BigErn; 03-30-2009 at 10:32 PM.. |

The pilot looks good, but there's just something about the webgear with the red accents that I used that makes him pop IMO. Honestly though, it's such a minor tweak that it probably doesn't make a difference either way.

Yeah I did like your choice of web gear better but that's the best of what I had lying around.

Swapped all black commando Snake Eyes' head with armored Cobra Commander's unmasked head. Instant assassin!

Here's a couple Greenshirts you can make mostly with your spare UBP parts:
Left: Just Short-Fuze with CP Beachhead, uh, head. Scrap-Iron pistols. Right: UBP Steeler body with UBP Stalker webgear and Serpentor head. Falcon's shotgun. I like this one especially, he looks a lot tougher than Steeler and the helmet actually fits on his head. |

Here's what I'm currently calling an Iron Gladiator.
It's a use for those extra Destros from the IG comic set. I also don't use the red Air Trooper helmets from the FANG sets, so this came together quite nicely. That's not Destro's head underneath there, I switched it with a Legions COBRA Commander head of which I have many. The next I'm quite proud of. This is my COBRA Admiral code name Maelstrom, the COBRA Air Force Commander codenamed Vortex and a nautical Destro (Blackhead Destro with a regular Destro head). Maelstrom is just a Tripwire/CC Commander body sans cape with the comic Shipwreck's head, and Vortex is the CG Officer from the TRU set with a Legions CC head and a black hat from the Star Wars Juno Eclipse action figure. These are my COBRA JUMP Troopers. I never liked the yellow on the Air Trooper so I use them as naval officers, so I had extra helmets and JUMP packs from my Legions sets. The body is the FANG/CLAW Officer with a Legions CC head underneath the Air Trooper helmet. I think these look much sharper than the blue/yellow combo of the Air Trooper.
