Hi all, Names Mike 32 from Canada. been collecting and customizing GI JOEs for the last few years. I remember reading Action Force when I was a boy and loved the DDP take on the Red Shadows (probably one of the few who liked LJ's death) the ending seemed lackluster but left me wanting more. Recently I found my self wanting to get better acquainted with the Action Force/Red Shadows mythos, so here I am, hoping for some good times, make a few AF/RS customs and to make some new friends. BTW On the hunt for a Roboskull if anyone has one for sale. heres some of my past customs http://hereticscustomtoyforge.blogspot.com/

Welcome to the forum!
I can't say I liked Alison's death, but I still defend it as a well written twist and sort of a character development point for Dashiell (though that means Marissa doesn't exist in this continuity? :-? ).

Thanks all. I liked the way Flint was going too, traded in the pretty boy for a pissed off, hate filled man on a mission. Too bad DDP lost the license, would have liked to have seen where they went with him.


Double-tap, thanks, yeah Headmans a custom, real easy too. SDCC Destro body, a random BBI Head with Buzzer. pony tail and an Indy Fedora

howdy, very slick customs you have there, do you customise vintage figures, or do you find there isn't enough to work with?
