I always gave Doc a Grunt backpack from the Accessory Pack. Changed his description from Medic to Medical Doctor...

Gung-Ho, Marine

I gave him a M-4 with a M-203 Grenade Launcher. As much as I like the good ol' Thumper, not having another weapon is pointless. Since every Marine is a Rifleman, he needs a rifle. I hate the here is no option for Gung-Ho's cover, so it is made up up a card dealers visor, a belt, and a big hat. I used shapes and colored them white to hide each side to the left and right of his head. Close as I can get it without using a ballcap.

Major Bludd, Mercenary

I don't like the helmet, but that's the third iteration I tried. Three different helmets to even get it that close.

Normally I use the same color inside a helmet, but I decided to try a two tone to kinda show the mesh/webbing of the liner.

I used the color picker to ID the colors of the figure, using the best images I could find online (thank 3DJoes). Apparently that is the closest to matching the skin color of the actual figure.

Ronin, Special Agent

She has a few different looks, so I went with sort of an amalgam of the designs.

Pale Peony, Arashikage Ninja

Pale Peony has several different looks, depending on the series. She even has a few different looks in the new IDW run. Amalgam of looks.

Lola looks great, she looks like she is based on her appearance in the rescue of Generals Hawk and Hollingsworth. Am I right?
Scanner was an interesting character from the IDW series. He looks good but I'm used to him having his jacket.
Did you invert Starduster's bandolier?

Lola is based on the Hawk/Hollingsworth rescue.

Scanner had a variety of t-shirts with different slogans. I decided to go with the slogan from the Brad Paisley song on the shirt.rduster

Starduster is the v1c, which had a bandolier. https://www.yojoe.com/action/87/starduster3.shtml

For some reason I thought the bandolier was over the other shoulder. :confused:

Shotgun, Special Forces Weapons

Shotgun, Special Forces Weapons.JPG [ 121.72 KiB | Viewed 2934 times ]

This character came about after I did some research into belt-fed combat shotguns. I had wondered if there were any shotgun weapon designs that used kinks of shotgun shells. I did see there was the AA-12, and a number of other drum-based and tub-based systems, and found several pics of actual belt-fed weapons. I can just imagine someone in a defensive situation just mowing down jungle foliage in a sheer volley of shotgun shells. One of the novel series I read had the characters using a 'jungle mix' of varying alternate types of rounds.

Twist & Shout, Silent Weapons & Communications

I realize he kinda looks like Beachhead, but maybe I was subconsciously thinking of parts to use that I had extra fodder for.

Subway, Special Forces

I was thinking of putting a Snake-Eyes v1 head on a Stalker v1 body, if I was going to WIP this one.

Scatback can paint targets for attack or use his weapon to disable enemy vehicles. A scatback is an offensive player in football, usually positioned at halfback or tailback. This position focuses on speed over strength, with scatbacks often attempting to outrun tacklers and gain significant yardage through runs or passes.
