As anyone who's seen my Cobra forces can tell you, I'm kind of an obsessive-compulsive army builder. I don't need massive numbers, but I do need specific numbers. And for every five troops of any given type, I really want a squad/group leader that is essentially a repaint of that troop...preferably in crimson.
That's how Skull Buster came about. I loved the DTC Range Vipers. So I got five of them. And a troop type this cool needed its own "Elite" squad leader.
Initially I had a Range Viper head on this guy but, in the critiques I received, a lot of people thought he deserved to be an individual "named" character instead of just a facelss squad leader. So I went with a head I hadn't been able to find another use for.
I kind of like the thuggish tough-guy look the Gung-Ho mug gives the figure. It seems to fit with the way Skull Buster's character was portrayed on his filecard. So I guess that's the way I'll be using him in my dios.
