Title says it all, is there a Marauders hand that can replace the molded Amazon Retaliation 4 Pack Road Block hand? I like the figure, but the hand is junk.

AVAC actually sells a pair of fairly generic replacement hands that appear to be intended for Roadblocks, although they aren't exact replica of the hands included with, say, the Night Force RB included in the Ninja Battles set (who had the same hands, but without the gimmick). AVACs versions're also a bit smaller than the RB hands. He doesn't seem to have them listed right now; here's the URL that used to lead to the product listing:

Thanks for the prompt response. It doesn't seem available at this time. Think the Marauders hand will work? General Joes said that knob is a bit bigger, but I guess a bit of glue could fill in the space.

I prefer the bigger Marauder hands. I've used them on several customs. The MTF hands are a little longer and smaller. So what I do is cut the tip off and then fill the socket with a shot of hot glue, then insert the MTF hand. Works just fine!

Marauder hands have better range of motion & grip weapons better as opposed to G.I. Joe P.O.C/30th/Retaliation/50th hands.

All that being said, I think I am interested in the missile kata system in another application. If you have an extra molded hand and missile set from a Wave 1/Zon 4 pack Roadblock, get them out of your life and kindly send them my way. I'll pay postage! |

Thanks for the tip on the tip! In a few weeks when everything is together, I'll try to post some pictures. Picked up a pair of black gloved hands from Maurauders (among other things).

I'll check my fodder.
