New Red Shadow unit and Erika La Tene from IDW's Cobra II

Post by Red Laser »

I succumbed to buying 2 ROC figures now down to £3.00 each One was a Desert Ambush Scarlett I slightly painted to be my version of Chameleon now featured in IDW's Cobra II although my version is based on the Crimson twins adjunct Erika La Tene as Chameleon.

And the other is a Polar Red Shadow and the main reason for this thread.

My idea is to build a unit round my Black Major they all have similar helmets all of which except his will be red I have about 5 ROC Ice-Vipers already should I use them as part of a Red Shadow Polar unit or leave them as they are?

I love the Ice Vipers as a figure, but I found myself pulling the heads off 5 to Shadowise, and I have two still just as standard. My only standard ROC figures actually!

I like it to Steve but feel like I should put together this unit seeing as I did a themed Black major. I will see how this one goes I will leaving off the clear visor as well.

I have the first one done and drying now. Thanks for the encouragement I have got the others out but their overcoats don't come off like the first one's did.
