 Post subject: Recoil, Charbroil, V3 Wet-Suit

Recoil and charbroil are my 2nd attempts, my first weren't very good, My 1st Charbroil just seemed off to me and my 1st Recoil was made about 3 years ago and there wasn't as many parts to pick from back then, plus I think my skills have improved enough (maybe?) to make versions I will be happy with in my collection.
The only reason I made v3 wet-Suit was because I dug his helmet and mines on his web gear.

Great work as usual.

It never ceases to amazed me how you cantake someof the goodies character designs andcolor schemes in Joe history and totally legitimize them.

Yes, great stuff as always. I'm patiently waiting for the day you try your own color schemes on some of sillier characters, though.

That Wet-Suit looks fantastic. I know you were faithful to Recoil and Charbroil which look good too, but Wet-Suit looks cooler than the original.

Another great Recoil! People are really bringing this figure some respect! I always felt weird about that figure, like it had potential but something about the design was off... somehow this is extremely faithful to original but "feels" much better.

All are great!
