Well I saw this thread...

I would like to add a few things to that list.
First though here are some of my Red Shadow :enemy: troopers :shadow: with Shadow Saboteurs...

The Cobra Imperial Guard looks like a perfect update to original Red Shadow troopers. Especially with the skull themed helmets just like their logo. Someone suggested I add a small Red Shadows skull logo to them. I don't think they really need it though.

Crimson Firefly was another good one. This time I thought the Red Shadows needed some saboteurs of their own.

I thought about using this Wild Weasel as my updated Red Wolf. However when I got it the head was so tiny it looked ridiculous next to my other figures. If someone was really wearing a helmet it wouldn't look like that.

For anyone thinking of customizing them, those Night Force vehicles are way too expensive for that purpose!

Hehe yeah, be better to get the regular editions of the vehicles. I've scoured several Joe figures to try and find army builders and they've always been slightly off-colour, all except for Jinx, not only is she the perfect match but she also has no team logo.

There was a similar thread here long ago. Let us never revisit the origin of the CATII.
