I'm a huge fan of the idea of the Steel Brigade. I see them as the joe's answer to the Crimson Guard. They work in the civilian sector and thwart Cobra's non-military activities.

everything looks great. Paint is tight too. Only thing I would change is paint Ace's eyes. I really dislike the factory paint apps on the eyes. Other than that, it looks great.

Seen alot of 25th SB troopers here in the critiques thread, and I gotta say this one looks as good as any I have seen so far. Great job!

Solid figure! Using the Cobra Commander arms is genius, and a good way to move them out of your scrap figure pile.

Thanks guys, glad you all dig him.

Matthew, i completely agree w/ ya on ace's eyes, but for the most part he will be wearing his helmet and i just needed a head other than duke to use so i decide on ace.

Tim, i'll try to get some pics of him w/ the new SB helmet as well.

Thanks again!
