This guy originally came together when I was trying to make a Clutch based on the Concept Case version, but after I went a different direction with Clutch, I had to figure something to do with the leftovers. One thing that eventually struck me was how much it reminded me of the green versions of Frostbite in GvC and Built To Rule, so I snagged the proper head and helmet to carry that idea to completion. Couldn't really match the green on the body so I decided to give him two shades of green instead.
Not sure what to name him.
Image
Head: Avengers Ultimates Captain America
Body: POC Clutch
Vest: Raginspoon cast
Helmet: Avacslab cast

Now I need to name him and find him an appropriate Forest Fox to drive.

Fixed that for ya. :D

Of all the characters in the JOE universe, I wouldn't have expected this one to be made into a ME custom.

Kinda reminds me of the Reservist figure too.

http://www.yojoe.com/action/02/reservist02.shtml

I like that a lot. Good color scheme. Maybe it's the Cap head, but he kinda reminds me of Super Trooper, or in these colors, maybe Rapid-Fire?

Or Tundra?

Anyway, tempted to steal that recipe.

Ditto. Ditto. And Ditto. That looks like a fun build.

Glad people are digging it.

Personally I'm still not happy with it. Hopefully I can revisit it someday and get the greens to match.

That's a pretty damned good custom, Jay.
