I created this figure for a really fun and well-organized contest Daremo hosted on Hisstank. The contest called for an original martial artist character, complete with bio. I had won the tiger head in a raffle of Trigate parts, and had just recently learned that one of the proposed names for the Night Creepers was 'Ghost Tigers.' This stuff just clicked in my head and away I went. I ended up winning second place, even though the flash in these pics washes out some of the details on his head.

Here's the bio - Believed to have ties to both Cobra and the Pan-Asian criminal organization known as the Black Dragons, there is a scarcity of reliable info regarding the operative known only as Ghost Tiger. Thought to be a Chinese national, we've ascertained that he made his rep on the underground death match circuit before joining up with the Night Creepers. After a falling out with Aleph, he began hiring himself out in a mercenary capacity, serving as an assassin, bodyguard, and enforcer. Analysis of surveillance footage captured during a Black Dragon raid suggest that he eschews modern weaponry in favor of a particularly ferocious version of the Tiger Claw fighting style, though it is likely that he is proficient in other styles as well. The tape indicates he prefers to attack forcefully and viciously, with little regard for his own safety. He seems to favor getting in close and finishing his prey quickly through the use of claws worn on his hands and feet, as well as a nasty looking set of working fangs mounted inside his tiger mask, though the swords on his back indicate he will resort to a more pedestrian form of melee combat when necessary. An informant claims Ghost Tiger received his numerous scars in combat with an actual tiger but that can't be verified at this time. Joes operating in the Asian theater are advised to exercise extreme caution when encountering this decidedly deadly new foe.
