Z Force Desert trooper

Post by Chopper »

Code Name: Sandy
Personal Name: Achab, Omar.
Action Force Code Number: AF 397447
Primary Military Speciality: Desert Survival
Secondary Military Speciality: Infantry
Birthplace: Duna

Sandy was one of the President of Duna's personal body guards during the Gibli uprising. He is also the Presidents cousin. He was initially trained by the SAS and was involved in several undocumented skirmishes over the last 20 years in the Africa and Middle East region's. He was so impressed with Action Force he requested enlistment, Skip and Eagle were so impressed with Omar they ensured he was eligible to enlist.

"Sandy has years of on the job experience and a distinct hatred for dictators, perfect for Action Force".

There aren't any brown or tan Zed's. Only red, green and white. Which he is. Not trying to be correct in military terms, just in Palitoy terms. There's the ground assault guy for tan desert dudes. This is just a homage to Desert Strike.

This guy was the easiest of the lot. Only paint was the Z logo's. I struggle to call this chap a custom.

Oh Sandy ;) All the Toltoys guys were articulated, he'd never have survived in an articulated Desert.

Nice one! You can't beat Palitoys dedication to making everything go with everything slse! Had AF kept going with Palitoy for a few more years you can guarantee that every head swap custom we've ever come up with would have been a reality!
