Andy1672's new "wave one" Custom.....

Post by Andy1672 »

Ive probably mentioned before that I was a big fan of the original wave of action force,

I loved the fact that they were basically miniature copies of the Action man range.

so keeping true to the original concept, here is another one of my wave one customs.

he is based on the original Action man "German AfricaKorps" now all I need is a general Rommel to go with him !

Andy that is another outstanding custom.
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?

I have some binoculars from a corps figure but they are bigger than this guys head !

I am on the look out for a smaller pair, not sure about Duke ? I will have to check WHOBIT on Yojoe.

Got to say Andy this is one of my favourite customs. So simple, but so right.

Cheers Steve I think he may be one of my favorites too.

I am spoilt for choice with the original action man uniforms, but it can be difficult finding parts to remake for action force.

this was my original to do list ........

Great custom there Andy!

Do you cast parts for the customs or are they from job lots?

Are there some in scale goggles that could replace the painted ones??

I just keep dodgy figures from job lots and use the body parts for customs.

not sure about scale goggles, it would be nice if I could find some tho ! also looking for some binoculars too.
