I had this planned the moment I saw the 25th Spirit version. That head was just to ugly so I started thinking on replacing his head. When I received my 25th Spirit I then noticed it was not only the head but also that shirt was making him look ugly. I was also never a big fan of that skirt in the cartoons he doesn't wear it. Final result was this.

Parts list:
Head: DTC spirit + 25th Spirit dremeled
Torsos: 25th Viper
Upper arms: 25th Viper
Lower arms: 25th Spirit
Legs: 25th Spirit
Backpack: 25th Spirit
Gun: 25th Viper
Belt: 25th Cobra trooper modded
Knife: 25th Spirit

Enjoy!!

Oh, man -- that's perfection! 8O

I planned to do something very similar once I get my hands on a 25A Spirit - but the head mods you did are just fantastic.

Now I'm glad I have that crappy Viper figure laying around. :D

Just plain awesome - I don't know what else to say.

Impressive. I like the 25th Spirit, but this one is great too!

That's nice. It pays homeage to the original while making it different. Plus you've fixed everything wrong with the released version. Perfection.

Tremendous job, Grip! A vast improvement over the Hasbro figure...

Best Spirit custom....EVAH! That head mod is fantastic. May have to give that a try if I ever get my hands on this wave.
