I know a few other people have done 30th Anniversary style versions of Beach Head, but I wanted one of my own. I didn’t want to just use the standard legs with the holster and silencer loop on the right leg and grenade pouches on the left leg. I wanted him closer to the original 1986 figure, even though he has the modern Beach Head mask.

Two knives on the right leg just like the original 1986 figure:

Working holster on the left leg:

25th Version, my 30th custom, Retaliation 3 pack version, Resolute, and POC Beach Head:

UPDATE:


I tweaked my custom Beach Head a little. I changed the holster and repainted the camo on his pants a darker green to give it more contrast. Pluv and someone else had asked for pics with the comic pack head, so here they are. I did not paint that head to match the body because I normally keep this head on my 25th Beach Head.

Image



Here is the holster. It’s an M-12 style that I sculpted from greenstuff.

Very cool update. I always like that you show the other versions for comparison shots/ character transitions.

really nice. I like the retaliation one but not that he has the same outfit as everyone else with that mold.It's good you changed up the knives and holsters to give him some difference and with his brown camo pants is another plus

I've got it, as you can see in the lineup of all the modern versions, but I don't like it as much as the modern head. It looks kinda derpy. I will get some pics though.

Love this, definitely an ultimate version. I like it better than all the Hasbro ones. At first glance I thought he was an LBC because the work is so clean.
