So theres now two versions of the Mission Brazil Set. Most of us are familiar with the original set (Capt. Claymore, Leatherneck, Mainframe, Dial Tone and Wet Suit) from the TRU set. Well this past joe con they did a Mission Brazil 2 set which while cool, was kind of a let down as many were hoping for a set much closer to the original scheme..myself included. However they did make ONE massive improvement in putting wet suit in a set of woodland camo seal BDU's as opposed to a bright silver dive suit (yeah that make a a buttload of sense to run around a jungle in huh? ha ha) but I digress. With the new set came a new oppoortunity to make them in 1/6th scale. Initially I was only going to make Capt. Claymore, but after making him I opted to use the 2011 convention set as inspirational base to put together a set mixed of both old (Capt. Claymore) and new (the remaining 4 ). Capt. Claymore came out as one of the best versions I have done of him as he actually has that atrocious giraffe camo (yes its bad, but it is cool at the same time. No I wasn't drinking when I wrote this ha ha). And Claymores yellow BDU shirt can be removed to reveal a black special forces t-shirt underneath to make it more like the Capt. Claymore from the con set....but I prefer the vintage look more. I have finished my set so now enjoy the set s'far.

I tell you what you do wonders converting 1/18 scale to 1/6 scale. Great job brother.
