I have been considering doing a U.N. peacekeeper for while now.. :marine: with a blue berret + a paper arm badge..
How about a member of U.N.I.T.? I've forgotten what colour berrets they have..I'm thinking the old style guy's not the "nu" black uniformed Red berret guys here.

I've just started work on another Russian WW2 custom. Thanks to Malcolm's advice re: miliput I think I may have come up with something good! Miliput seems to be great stuff. Once I'm used to it I'm looking forward to all sorts of options!

I have another cutom idea (and I'm also too lazy to do it myself): A Doctor X who could rival with Night Force Action Man.

Recipe:
McDonald's Dr X head
Most of Dr Mindbender v1
BAT v16 arm (so it looks more robotic)

Well, it's not very difficult to think, but...

Wasn't Dr X a re-do of the 12" G.I.Joe Major Bludd (or Dr Mindbender) figure?

I didn't know that. Then, it's easier: just take the 3 3/4" version and put McDonald's Dr X's head on his shoulders. Then just paint the figure.

Mate thanks! I'm touched you're making a model of me! Do you need any reference photo's?
When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?
