had these figures done for almost a moth now but forgot to post them. It's likely this is just round 1, will probably make some more later on.

The Corps! in NFCverse is the counter-Firefly and Z family hunting unit. They're NOT a part of GIJoe or the Impossible Mission Force but the Corps was needed as a completely dedicated unit based upon those templates, since the FF Syndicate and Zartan's kin represent considerable threats to all world governments therefore military forces.

comparison picture. Ethan Crown and Road Rash were made from the same body tooling with diffferent heads. This is just to show I varied my customs to look completely individual from eachother.

Those look great man! Glad to see you got them all done. I especially like the turban & mohawk guys.

Those all look really cool, especially Bengala and Willie!
Although I think Willie'd look better with some facepaint.

This is an unexpected project that turned out really really cool. The shiek is probably my favorite of the bunch. The only thing that could possible make him better is to give him RoC Destro pants. In this case it isn't even necessary.

Holy crap... Not bad at all!

Not what I was expecting, and these are just super fun. Looks like Lanard could make some good stuff if they'd step into the 21st century.

I AM disappointed there's no Hattrick Lemonade though.

I always felt like it wasn't the designs on the Corps! figures that was lacking, but the execution/sculpt.

This is a really fun project and came out brilliantly. Very nice work!

me too. I wasn't sure what to expect, but was optimistic when I clicked. I was not let down.

all this time I've been bemoaning how little use those sweetly priced Corps figs are to my customizing, when the whole time, their value has been right under my nose - the characters are the fodder, not the parts. Great job seeing that, and great job with the execution.

I would actually buy some of these if I saw them in store. Great updates to the figure designs.
