Blood for the Baron!

The figure isn't one of my customs, but I loved it soo much I had to have it as the pilot, here is the original source-

apparently its a Sky patrol Airwave Helmet on a Starbrigade Cobra Commander Head -both of which were non existant in the UK, so not the easiest to replicate

Hmm, its not no.

I actaully have Airwave, just not his helmet.

ive decided to use this guys torso:

and Im thinking Wild Weasel for the rest.

Lol, sods law-

went looking for something else in my parts box and I DO have that helmet.

Now if only Id found it a few days ago, I wouldnt have wasted £3....

Still, Im happy I found it- I love that Rotor Viper

And SpecOps- you must have been around the scene for afew years.

The Bivouac- thats a while ago...

Just remembered these pics from Marvel UK.

Hey, I think it was also in the 2nd Summer Special, where the Dreadnoks are chasing the Soft Master.

It was indeed.

Thanks for the images Jim, youre a star.

Chopper came today.

Im so excited, its a big bu**er tho

As promised, some pics.

I apologise for the poor quality, just using my mobile:

Paint the pseudo-Havoc-meets-Hokum attack chopper blut-rot and it's goddamn genuine borderline material.

these are on sale in ELC, reduced by £10...

Merry Christmas to everyone!

What an absolutely story that is.

Pure class indeed. This is the story that made 2nd UK gen Marvel Cobra credible. Thanks to the fuggin Oktober Guard, natch.

Didn't the Oktoborists have a Hind in support too? They certainly had a sweet 8-wheeler BMP to roll around Afghanistan in, main weaponry from Ostland natürlich. Presumably Cobber copied, kanyeshna.

This chopper could be retro- too. Well, where there's a will, there's veritably an Eisenblut way.
