Here's my customized Flint. I also gave him a Grid Iron shotgun (not pictured), though I forget which one.

There's nothing wrong with him, he's Flint you would expect. I'm digging his shotgun even though it's impossible to function realistically

Do the hands that came with Flint not fit Recondo's arms?

I really like the Classified Flint. I would give him an 8.5. Some don’t like his head sculpt, but I have zero issues with the sculpt. I just wish he had the proper short rolled up sleeves, instead of the Duke arms; and his sawed off shotgun. I gave mine more classic looking gear. Which I think takes him up to a solid 9.

The stems are different. Flint's hands have the narrow and long stems which require modding to fit into Recondo's wrist sockets. I used Spirit's hands, which pop right onto Recondo's arms since they share the same basic tooling.

Same thing applies for the Viper if you are planning on modding him too. Which was annoying since you have to paint the Spirit hands. At least with Flint no painting is required.

Thanks for the heads-up. That's a bummer.

I've yet to remove the vambraces of my Vipers for fear the forearms won't match the neck. :(

Flint is my favorite Joe, but I give this figure a 7. Nice looking figure overall, but lacks some distinctive Flint characteristics obviously. I'll happily offload mine for a more classically designed version. Same with Firefly.

I think his classic shotgun is a short barrel, rather than sawed off.
