Just throwing out the question here...in general fashion to see who may help.
Does anyone have? or know someone who can make me a vintage wetsuit helmet, or alternate head to look like the vintage figure? I'll throw some money for it...i am just sick of him not having the helmeted head when he came with the 7 pack. Lemme know. Thanx |

Go to Broken Arrow Toys-http://www.brokenarrowtoys.com/cart/index.php he has custom Wetsuit parts including a helmet or what I did was just switch out the 25th head for the ROC Pit Trooper head (it is the same head the Club used for the box set Mission Brazil Wetsuit) and then switch out the lower clothed arms for bare arms.

I still see those in TJ Maxx stores. Usually for about $3.
A repainted Eel helmet works pretty good too. |

Or the single card RoC Eel for a more seamless fit.
The best arm swap is 25th Tunnel Rat with 25th Croc Master hands. Use a Mainframe wrist band for his right wrist. And I skipped the helmet, just because I didn't want to paint. I use the RoC Shipwreck goggles on the Wet-Suit head. Gets it done for me. |

I ordered a 1992 Wetsuit helmet from ebay and plan on modding it a bit.
If it works out, I'll certainly let everyone know.
