Yeah, I filled the holes in SE's guns too, but then managed to get the exclusive one so he uses the Uzi now.
I agree with the weapons. The color choices ruin it. However, I don't like painting weapons, especially where the figures hold them cause the paint will chip off but the more muted colors you gave to your Beachhead and Duke look really good. It doesn't always work with painted joints, but it should keep paint from flaking off just because they are holding a gun or you are taking in and out of the hand occasionally.

Never did that before. I just try avoiding painting any joints and weapons handles.

Even after painting the gold away, I cant stand those shin guards on the joes.. just too out of character.

I don't disagree but it's the cheapest way to make it look better.

Just wondering, has anyone removed the neck from the torso? I've popped the head off the neck post before, but not sure if it's easy to remove the neck from the body.

Can't stand the pegs sticking out of the Cobra Trooper's rifles, so I cut them off and made custom slings for them.
Dull down Gung Ho's weapons and made them all hang securely on the backpack. Added Gunnery Sergeant rank on his hat. Fixed Scarlet's arrow quiver, now she can shoot with her right hand and pull an arrow from her left hand. |

Opened Cobra Commander, gave him shiny boots. You know Cobra Commander is the type of guy that'd have someone spit shine his boots. His grasping hand and pointing hand also give him a lot of character.
