The fer de lance took me by surprise.
I thought the base might have been the Joe Submachopper at first but I was surprised when I read the parts list.
Well executed.

Splashdown is awesome, and the Moon-Vipers are incredible! I always liked Star Brigade, and never had a problem with G.I. Joe (and Cobra) having a presence in space. It's a little more realistic this time around (in that I don't expect the Lunartix Aliens are going to be popping up), and I really enjoyed writing the file cards for these two great characters, and the figures are truly superb!

Spider Glitch is great, this is coming from someone who doesn't usually like things like that.

Glitch is a whole lot weirder than I expected he'd be, even though I'm the one who wrote his file card! I also think that if he were actually made by Hasbro, he'd sell very well just because of the weirdness!

Dan of the Dead and I worked together to coordinate these two customs to make them look cohesive. He finished first and this custom blew me away. I love everything about it

Today's offerings are the best yet. That Thunderstriker is awesome as is the pilot. I really love how clean the paint apps are and the design on the jet are wicked.

Mastermind is a cool figure. The parts choices are really nice and the paint apps are top notch as always.

First thing I thought of when I saw Mastermind...

That said, I do like the design of Mastermind. The parts put together gives him an unique look for a named character and fits very well into the upper levels of Cobra.

I wonder if he is supposed to be the unnamed Cobra from Marvel 1 during the Lady Doomsday mission.

EDIT: I wonder if the red on the wrists would look better in gold?

Thanks guys. Lol at Community, the resemblance is uncanny, the inspiration definitely came from the 1981 CC concept art. For the wrists, gold may work better. Since the original art did not have any color, I had a blank slate to work with. I kept the colors CC-esque while still trying to make the figure different.

Day 26 already and the Battle of Cobra Island continues...
