I care not at all for the character, but I love this custom.

Awesome. I actually liked the original figure for some reason, so seeing an update of him is a nice surprise (I never had his filecard because I got him from a friend's older brother, so for all I know he's the worst-written Joe character ever). You did a great job of adapting the armor into something that doesn't look ridiculous, and the head was the perfect choice. Excellent job on a character I didn't expect to see in custom form!

I like the idea of him being in BF 2000. I think that that just happened for my universe and will now be cannon for me.

I do like him, but the helmet seems... odd somehow. Not bad - and I wouldn't change it, as it's part of the character - but I can't put my finger on what's drawing my attention about it.

Got it. It looks like an upside down colander with mesh on top. :rotfl:

It's just that the helmet is riding too high. It should cover his ears. Other than that, it looks great.

I like this one a lot. A little less Super but you got him looking more like a Trooper.

I like the ABBA reference a lot, but I like the figure even more!
Very cool!

Lower the helmet and it'll be perfect. The chrome reinterpreted as pewter is a great move.
