Hi guys,

Here is a quick custom using an extra cobra trooper I had lying around: Lt.Claymore. (He was a cobra trooper from the cartoons episodes ''The Traitor'').

The figure is not 100% accurate with the cartoon. Since he is a lieutenant, I decided to give him a silver cobra symbol on his chest as well as officer web gear. The gun is from the Tomax & Xamot Comic Pack. The head is Mace Windu from Star Wars ( Admit it, we knew Samuel L. Jackson would end up in GI Joe one day, he's in everything else ;-) )

I still need to remove the yellow from under the helmet, but aside from this, I'm pretty happy with this custom.

As always, let me know what you think.

OB

Very cool! LOL...I have to laugh cuz kiddo is standing here and he didn't see your explanation, but immediately said "Hey I know who that is...it's the black guy from Traitor! He's a Lt. or something..."

:) I love my kid.

Very nice figure, for some reason I was expecting the Joe Claymore, but this figure was a pleasant surprise.

Your figure puts the Master Collector version to shame. Good job!

You won't have a picture of him from the cartoon, would you?
