Nice job, normally I don't like S/W figure parts used in :AFLogo: customs, but this one works very well.
I think it's the goggles, they seem to fit into the :AFLogo: "vibe".
If you think about it, sos many of the costumes from the original Star Wars films have a lot of old amy kit used in them.

As for a vehicle how about the Lynx (in red) form the "Slaughters Marauders" line?
I love some of the upgrades in that line up.
More news, as its made, from new Action Force!

Maybe an Armadillo custom?
what is that vehicle?

it's a bit hard to check google when all you've got to go on is it's German and it's small. possibly with SAMs...

as for vehicle, either a red AWE Striker or a red Armadillo.
Not quite sure but I'm pretty confident I already mentioned using the AWE Striker :roll:

Oh look I did! :-D
