Looking to see if there’s an easy kitbash I can do to make Sly Rax from M.A.S.K. Looking to do it using 25th era parts. Any parts suggestions that wouldn’t require repaints?

Take this with a grain of salt, because a customizer I ain't, but I have the feeling that the parts are hidden amongst the 25th Dreadnoks somewhere...

Yeah I think you’re right at least on some of the parts. Thinking Ripper head, waist and legs. No clue who has a leather jacket look for a torso and arms though.

Maybe an Air Viper?

Have a look at the v52 Snake Eyes. One of the more parts savy members will likely put forth a better option, but he's got a cool jacket and isn't expensive.

That might work. Low Light might also work with a tiny bit of paint apps to cover up that red shoulder.

2) how important is the blue undershirt to you? Various combos of the two Vipers from the Arctic Assault set would get you the blue base/black boots, but they both have blue sleaves. If arm swapping is out, you could try one of the many 2009 Rise of Cobra figures with blue-gray camo pants and blackish tops, and swapping in a matching vest to match the arms and cover any chest logos. For the head, maybe Mutt v7/Rampage v3 with some goggles? |

1) I have no problem with arms swaps. Just no painting, especially around joints.
2) not terribly important.

Other bucks that might work as a base with a swapped out head, arms, and vest: Gung-Ho v20 MARS Industries Trooper v1 < you can still find these guys for under $10, even on ebay POC/50TH Hawk v6 < + available for cheap, don't need an additional vest / - skin tone is tricky to match, as is the light gray of the chest Duke v44 Cobra Trooper v18 < I theoretically like this option the best for the high collar and the light blue base, but matching with the right vest and arms could be tricky |

Wow. Why is Rampage going for $50?
