Did someone call for Night Patrol?

Always loved the Night Patrol figure.

Couldn't resist getting his helmet hollowed out as the group leader.

This just works so well !!
He looks like he has a look of dertermination in the first pic, and then thoughtful in the second :)

That's really cool, you've got to find a way to make these hollow helmets fit though.

I've been debating hacking up a Night Patrol to give the limbs to Black Wolf, if I do would you like the torso for your group leader?

Another thought for all of these unmasked figures would be some variations in hair colour.

I just don't think that will ever be possible without breaking through the outside of the helmet. It's really fiddly trying to hollow them out in the first place.

My first response was 'yes please', but on second thoughts I think, as leader, he should be a little different from the rest. Many thanks for the kind offer, though Baron!

But hack away and lets see what a Black Wolf will look like please!

Controversial! Personally I like the fact that the heads are all the same [as opposed to GI Joe] but it does make the Euro exclusives like Steeler or Gung Ho not really fit in with the rest of the UK Action Force imo.

Just my thoughts...

Well I made one up already using SAS Pilot limbs, but it just ain't chunky enough...

It may be cheaper to hack up a Space Force Patroller and paint him black.

So is the leader a night patrol with the chest markings rubbed off?

Yeah, I agree with what you're saying - the arms just aren't quite 'right'.

I'd chop up a space patroller, personally, as those are ten-a-penny.

Yeah, And.

He's the one that I had from you a while back.

Originally I thought he was going to join my SAS as he was all black, but he's ended up back with the patrol...
