12" cobra trooper

Post by Ross SC »

cant afford a sideshow trooper, so decided to make one.
no idea what the blue uniform is from, or the vest but guessing police/swat of some kind. the helmet isnt quite right, but overall i guess im pretty happy! really wanna make a cobra sniper next, was hoping to get some urban camo & dye it blue, but no joy so far..............
need to work on the cobra logo a bit.

I find the helmet is right, but he looks more :ctrooper: -like with the googles on his face rather than on the helmet.
Without the helmet, both with and without googles, he looks similar to the helmet-less :ctrooper: s who appeared during the first few marvel issues.
Overall: Cool! Even better than the Sideshow one (being unmaskable is the main plus)

yeah, i love the sideshow one but do think it would have been cooler if the mask wasnt fixed!
wasnt going to give him goggles, but had a pair & i really liked the look of them in resolute!

Great Job kind of a cross between a Viper with the goggles and an ordinary Cobra Trooper.

Ross - I love this! The face on him actually looks real up close! What's the base figure?

hot toys true type, awesome base figure as the articulation is amazing!
thinking about doing a bit more work, might turn him into a cobra sniper & also make him a bit more viper-ish.
ive found some leg armour for him, also may give him an alternate head. have been thinking about dying some tri-color camo blue, to give it a night watch look.......
the head does look really life like, one of the best ive found so far.

Before you know it you'll have the sewing machine out mate and be going to haberdasheries! I speak from experience....

I'm sure Chopper can relate to the funny looks you get off the neighbours and the Missus when you start pegging out little Action Man sized uniforms to dry on the washing line!
