Help identifying ARAH guns/backpacks

Justin311 · 01-24-2022, 05:56 PM

I am trying to sort the ARAH from my 25th. In these first two pics, can anybody identify ARAH accessories? I think they are mostly 25th?

In the 3rd pic, I need help identifying the following:
1) black backpack with 3 grenades on top
2) Green backpack with C channel in it
3) 2 loose "hats" that look like Gnawgahyde's - ARAH or 25th?
4) tan parachute pack - 25th?
5) maroon flippers - are these battlepak?

Thanks!

Quite certain the tan parachute is from ARAH Crazylegs v1. The hats look to be from Recond v6 and v7 respectively. Flippers are from 08 Cobra Diver.

If you haven't already I'd start with the figures you have and try to match their accessories on yojoe.com.

The two backpacks in the 3rd pic are Frag Viper and Heavy Duty's, the parachute is indeed for '87 Crazy Legs.

In the first pic, I see Interrogator's rifle- it's the one that has the "claw".

The gray rifle with the broken tip appears to be for 1983 Airborne, but it's hard to tell because it appeared in slightly different shades a few times.

There it is! The Frag Viper pack was killing me.

Also related to my prior post, a lot of the accessories in the first two pics were released with multiple figures (especially all the black pistols and machine guns) so it'll be much easier to match them to the figures you have vs. the other way around.

Yeah, ME accessories can be tough because they were issued with so many different figures.

Thanks all. I've probably spent in excess of 200 hours matching accessories to figures. Its challenging when I haven't seen these for 10 years and haven't known the names for 30 years. This is just the last few I have left, over 300 figures and twice as many accessories.
