Head: '86 Wetsuit
Torso: '91 Red Star
Arms: '87 Gung Ho
Waist, legs: ARAH Cobra Commander V3
Backpack: '86 Hawk
Design:
I couldn't find body parts to reflect the overall feel of the Palitoy Red Shadows figure, aside from the Red Star torso that is a favorite of customizers (and the Collector's Club). I then aimed to make a more heavy-duty trooper, less dressy and more aggressive looking.
Without any ARAH heads to mimic the Palitoy figure, I reluctantly chose the Wetsuit heads. They're adequate at best, but in all-red pass for a troop builder design.
In a working version of this custom I went with another head to mimic the red ski masks look seen in Devil's Due. However, I'll use it down the road for another figure.
Colors & Paint:
Red and black with white eyes.
Sculpting and modifying:
I removed the star from the Red Star upper torso belt buckles as well as hose posts from the Wetsuit heads.
Thanks for looking.
