First Tunnelrat: I made two new outfits for him as I'm not that crazy of the original TF version:

First I liked the orange version better, but now I'm liking the yellow version somewhat better. I'm not sure which version I'm going to use in my collection display. What do you think?

And since I wasn't so sure about the yellow TF Tunnel Rat at first, I gave that body a different head which made this guy:

He doesn't have a name or specialty yet.

Next up is Dial-Tone. I like him way better than the one from the 5-pack:

And here is another new TF member. I see him as a commando the way Snake Eyes originally was meant to be. You know, a special forces guy with advanced martial arts experience. As you can see I armed him with several different weapons, but I don't know which ones look best yet. His codename probably will be Ghost-Tiger, because he sneaks through the jungle without being noticed and kills the same way.

I'm pretty sure he'll be functioning as the TF Sting driver or TF Shark pilot. Possible codenames for now are U-Turn and River-Rat. I'm still looking for a suitable helmet, but his head is quite big.

They all turned out pretty good, i think simple is sometimes better than complicated. You get a thumbs up from me.

Decided to name him U-turn and make him the Tiger Sting driver.

This one will be River Rat and he's the Tiger Shark pilot.

How about 'Tiger Stripe'?

Can I go ahead & say that Ghost Tiger looks like he should be the TF Big Brawler we never got?

tim those are all really cool, man.


only suggestion i have is that on the yellow tunnel rat, on his right arm, right below the black band you maybe should just put another layer of yellow, that it looks kinda faded.


other than that, really cool.

Hehe, I like that idea. I'll try to dig up my BB and fit his head on that custom. Or maybe make him a new TF body.

Oh, well since it is a LBC I'll just replace that arm with another (but unfaded) Lightfoot arm.
Thanks all for the comments so far!

Well, just in general. I just can't believe with the number of Tiger Force products and customs that 'Tiger Stripe" hasn't been used.

Doesn't quite have a character name quality, but I can't see a vehicle using it either.

n/m :)

I choose the blk/red Tunnel Rat. The yellow one is too loud for me but hey the whole TF image is loud. TF "Ghost-Tiger" looks really safe to go as Brawler but he could also be just an exclusive TF member like that one Wreckage figure released (2003). Dial Tone is perfect I think. Excellent work on all of them nonetheless.
