Design:

The GI Joe Collector's Club Mortal figure is an interesting figure, although I don't find it quite as interesting as either Crimson Asp or Freestyle. Here I reinterpreted the design in New Sculpt format. The parts don't match up to the GIJCC figure. A design aspect (of both the original Venezuelan version and the GIJCC version) was the use of a silver Snake-Eyes head. I don't think this adds anything to the character- it just makes it look like a Snake-Eyes repaint. To help downplay any Snake-Eyes vibe, the Croc Master head replaces any actual Snake-Eyes head.

Colors:

Based on the GIJCC figure. Because the hard edges of the sculpted armor are different in appearance than the soft edges of the cloth on the arms and legs, the silver has been extended down to the torso.

Modifying:

To minimize the wonky NS proportions, I added a sculpted "riser" to the waist. It's sculpted as material on the torso below/not covered by the body armor. The breathing lines were cut off the Croc Master head. The goggles were cut from an X-Wing helmet. The leg pouches are push molds with straps added.

I accidentally clipped one of the upper corners of the goggles while cutting them from the X-Wing helmet. This imperfection adds some character and even more distinction from Snake-Eyes.

Thanks for looking.
