I have no idea why they thought Bright Orange and Yellow were the best colors for this figure.

Your custom looks great.
I'd have been fine if Doc was in a snow suit of uniform color (all orange). As he was, I passed. I may get him eventually though.

am i missing something or does it not make any difference if youre a non combatant or not?

So the difference is that they can get away with the orange color scheme for Doc because he is a non-com, but it probably wouldn't fly so well with a Snow Job fig. But I agree, if Doc goes into a "hot" zone dressed like Rainbow Brite, he's the one that's going to need the medic. Regardless, the paint apps and repainted color scheme looks great, which is the point of this thread. |

Yep, you're missing the point that the question was why did HABRO choose to use those colors. My thought was they where probably channeling noncombat missions for Doc like search and rescue, where, like Lifeline's kooky color scheme, he will stand out against the snow because he wants to be seen by the people he trying to help.
