Lost Planet is one of my favorite Xbox games, and when I heard Byung Hun Lee (the model for main character Wayne) was cast as Storm Shadow in RoC, I knew a custom Wayne figure had to happen.
There have been a lot of cold weather-themed figures, but I can't find one that matches well enough. The Ice-Viper may be a good body to start with, and Paris Pursuit Storm Shadow is a given considering the unmasked head. Also, it's not shown in the pics attached, but Wayne wears a gas mask-style breather over the lower half of his face. Does the facemask from The Doctor fit on PP Storm Shadow's face? I appreciate the help. Last edited by I.G. 84; 05-16-2010 at 05:23 PM.. |

I also wanted to do this! but have had a hard time finding parts. The Night Creepers belt and straps work for his but, other than that. I have been stuck

The more I look at it, perhaps the Snow Serpent's fuzzy collar and shoulder pads would work.

Well, based on the pictures, here's a recipe I'd come up with:
BODY Head: Storm Shadow Paris Pursuit Upper & Lower Torso: Any Collar Shirted Figure (ROC Duke Desert Ambush, Duke DVD 5 Pack, Cobra Viper, etc.) Upper Arms, Forearms & Hands: Paris Pursuit Snake Eyes Thighs: ROC Duke Desert Ambush / ROC Ripcord (Jungle Assault) Calves & Feet: 25th Gung Ho (Comic 2-Pack) / 25th Snake Eyes (DVD 5 Pack, the one in the Olive Green Suit) I'd opt more for Gung Ho's calves and feet as they are bulkier and match the picture better than Snake Eye's whose boots and calves are somewhat slender. GEAR Vest (or the body of the Winter Jacket): Ripcord's (ROC Jungle Assault) Vest / 25th Gung Ho (Comic 2 Pack) Vest, with either the collar of an ROC Arctic Viper or ROC Snake Eyes Paris Pursuit cut out and glued to it Belt: ROC Snake Eyes Paris Pursuit Gun: ROC Helix / ROC Ripcord (Jungle Assault) Face Mask: ROC Doctor Lewis (it is a somewhat snug or tight fit on Storm Shadow, but it does fit)

My friend was going through his figures and recommended RoC Breaker's vest. It looks good and is cut short, plus it has the sculpted zipper down the middle.

Of course, it's just advice, and it's also based mostly on what I have in my fodder bin at the moment (I was actually browsing through pieces in my fodder bin as I was typing up that recipe).
But, as a poster here just said, Breaker's vest is also a good choice.

I did some more looking and (unless someone corrects me) the head on the unmasked Arctic Assault Storm Shadow variant is a better-looking shade than the Paris Pursuit one.
