Head: Duke (VvV) modded with scraps of a DTC Crimson Guard skirt
Torso, arms, crotch and legs: Ghost Bear (VvV)

Helmet: Overkill (SpyTroops)
Gun: Agent Jinx (VvV)

I know that DTC is releasing a Cobra Officer in the next wave and I fully intend to buy a few, but those figures will serve as squad leaders for me.

It must be a holdover from the late '90s troop builders (which I only owned one set of) that somehow stuck in my brain. I just love the idea of Cobra's enlisted folk being in blue (or shades thereof) and officers sporting gray with gold and black accents.

That's how this guy came about.

For the most part, this was easy to do. The head was the trickiest thing. Since I use the OCS Crimson Guard heads on all of my DTC Cobra Troopers, I wanted something complimentary yet distinctive. I never much cared for the SpyTroops/VvV Duke noggin, but with a red scarf covering that goofy grin, he gives off just the right combination of smugness and overconfidence.
