Reloaded :storm: head? I didn't know there were Reloaded figures. The nearest I knew was a :cobracommander: with a skimask, just as in Reloaded, but it was a coincidence; the figure was made to put the detachable helmet or hood on the masked head.

They look great Jamar maybe paint them up to be a brighter red do you have access to a Games Workshop or stockist? Blood Red is the shade I use on my Red Shadows.

I disagree. They look perfect as they are, especially as they are cast in red. Don't paint them! It'll make them look messy! They look like a gritty, modern shadow as they are.

ya I thought it did too and the head comes from Alyosha and HE PAINTED it NOT ME I recommend you paying the extra money for him to paint it, the paint work is as good as anything Hasbro Does and it doesnt come off LOL just tell him I sent you over !

ya I agree , I cant paint worth a dam either though so maybe Im bias LOL

also the skirt thing is rubber so if you painted it , it would always be sticky with the paint rubbing off.

This way I have Red Shadow that is playable and I dont have to worry about paint always coming off .

I dont really do much customizing but when I do its simple things like this.

but ya I think they are perfect as is, I got about 12 more on there way too !

I think with these guys and the RED COBRA RESOLUTE FIGURES that I ordered ( that Im putting SteveDs heads on ) I got a nice modern Red Shadow army finally.

It may depend on the paint as mine hasn't worn off as you can see by my avatar I used the CLAW Commander but repainted his uniform.
