i dont know if someone has done this already...
just a simple rateeg modification.

i do not know why destro's suit was dark gray, as i see him on t.v., he's wearing a pure black suit. and what's up with the green eyes?
see pic below:

so i decided to repaint my 25th anniv DESTRO figure that came from the cobra boxset.
collar was repainted to a much more red color, straps were highlighted with gray paint drybrush, painted the leg strap and holster with bright red.
had the chance to repaint his pendant, grenades, guns and missiles too.

here is DESTRO.

thanks folks for looking!

looks awesome, hasbro probobly made him the greyer color so they could release a black one later down the line like the black snake eyes, I think you did a great job on making him more "destro"

thanks folks.
i think what made him more "destro" is the eyes and the bright red color.
do you guys know if destro wore green eyes anywhere?

WOW! those red eyes make him look much more evil!
Awesome work!

rateeg, can you post another pic of Destro? Photobucket's bandwidth was exceeded on the original ones.
