Multiple alley vipers, shock troopers, and possibly shadow trackers are being harder to find, afford, or want for some. So some of us like myself are using single carded figures as mercenaries or guns for hire by cobra. Just like some of us did as kids.
What about the main Cobra characters? Did you take all the Fireflies from the TRU 5 packs and use them as Firefly vipers? Soldiers sworn to protect and be a decoy for Firefly? Croc vipers? Copperhead troopers? So which modern era figures of yours fall into this category?

I troop build beachheads, all DG figures, Blow torches, Fireflies, etc. Any figure with a mask on is fair game. If I like the look of a figure, I'll headswap them and make them a troop builder. You can make any figure a troop builder. If you don't want to pay $20-25 per figure for the hard to get ones, troop build DG one or whatever you can find in your area.
I bought at least 10 arctic Destros, great figure. Collectors have a hard time seeing past a certain item, like the head and leave nice figures on the pegs. |

I got a buddy that was army building Croc Master and Armored C/C o-ring figs. Weird. The guy that army builds Serpentor takes great pics of his collection. I thought he photo shopped at first. I did Snake eyes and S/S clans.

And yeah, any masked or easily swapped characters are fair game.

The Retaliation 3-pack Firefly is my default version while the Ultimate Firefly serves as a part of my Shadowhunters(a.k.a. Headhunters along with a black Resolute CC repaint and the Renegades CC as Headhunter guards) as an officer.
