Right then, well, the other night, I opted to clean the Cobra logo off an extra WM RoC 2-Pack Copperhead and swap out his head with the Mission Brazil Mainframe.
He's not a prefect match to the original and the face's skin tone is a little darker [though, to be fair, the arms don't match the neck either] but he's good enough for a lazy Armadillo. Even fits in the Rolling Thunder cab. |

So, we're all storming BBTS tomorrow if they don't get PoC waves 5 and 6 in, right? Right?

I'm alright with a little patience on these next few waves of Joes. I don't know how this whole thing with Japan is messing with the rest of Asia's shipping lanes but I'm sure it hasn't helped the confusion.
I also had a comic pack picked up for above mentioned custom. But I hate to paint figures and this set offered an alternative as I wanted the troop builders anyhow. Edit: And so, Last edited by Hicks_Royel; 04-18-2011 at 01:18 PM.. |

Not bad! Why the vest if I might ask? The RoC logo still makes me cringe.
Personally, I don't mind painting non-moving parts, so I would have been cool with painting the helmet. And part of me would want to paint the boots that hideous pea-green, but the other part would bitch about getting the joints right. |

Eh, I have a few too many Hawks. And the vest helps hide the neck color being off.

Isn't that vest only from the Mobile Pit Hawk? Do you have multiple Pits? I am genuinely curious. I bought one. Sort of regret it.

Yeah, I have a few Pits and plans for them too. I bought a few last time TRU.com had them on sale. In fact... one is going to be a very late entry to a contest... someday. As a Joe base, it's not much. But with a little effort, I hope to get it to shelf worthy.
Anyway, the vest does go well with the black on the legs of my Armadillo too so, I think it'll stay for now. |
