Head: Custom Cast Part
Vest, Backpack, Flamethrower, and Thigh Pads: G.I.Joe 25th Anniversary Blowtorch
The Rest: Marauders Task Force Parts
This is an update of a previous figure. Blowtorch has been a real bear for me. I have had so many tweaks to this guy and have added so many layers of paint on him that, in the end, I had to throw him in some DOT-4 brake fluid and start from scratch. I really wracked my brains over what head to give him. Since I used the original 25th Blowtorch accessories, I did not want to use the helmet and face-mask as well. I did balaclava heads in red and yellow, gas masks in red and yellow, but, in the end, I just opted for a cast. Originally, there was a lot more yellow paint on Blowtorch (I made this guy several years ago), but it looked so caked-on, that I had to chemically remove most of it. Now I have him in more red with the red leg armor, knee pads, and forearm armor (all of which were originally yellow). Side note: I conspicuously added a knife to his leg. It is not there to defend himself so much as to quickly get him out of his own gear when he inevitably takes a bullet in one of the tanks.
