Who is OoalB and what does he do?

Okay I'm seriously new to the boards, and I'm relatively new to Actionforce in general.

The reason being is I live in the US, where Actionforce is G.I. Joe.

Which I love.

Thanks to the Blood for the Baron contest I have decided to learn some more about my loves European counterpart.

Now that's a little on who I am....here's what I do, I make some Fanfic, and some custom file cards.

Not just your average cards see I got tired of Hasbro repainting figures and reissueing them. Honestly who needs 22+ Dukes?

What was the straw that broke the camels back was the Toys R Us Crimson Guardsman 6 pack.....honestly 2 Fireflys?

But then something occured to me....why didn't I hate Tigerforce Wreckage? He was the same mold, yet a differant character....the seed was planted, but yet had not come to bloom until I saw the Cobra Imperial 6pk at Toy R Us.

I saw the back and looked at the picture of the Baroness, and kept thinking this picture makes the Baroness look like she's 18

.....maybe her daughter, but certianly not.......WAIT!

That was it, I started giving new identies to repaints...here's the sample of that repaint.....Raina DeCobray...

That got me going full tilt, since then I have redone all of Tigerforce, Eco Warriors, Star Brigade, and a few others as well. I'll start a thread later and show you more of them.

These characters spun off most of my fanfic...which I will also post later on as well.

Jamar I'm know you from elsewhere....I was Arsenal from Brandon Jerwa's board before he shut it down.

Thanks for the welcome....

Ultimately I'm sorta here to gather more info on the Red Shadows, and all the characters that have never seen print in the States, so I can do some similar cards for them.

Welcome to the board, OOALB! If you're after an alternative Baroness origin story, this one is a cracker:

that is the ultimiate Baroness Declassified story ! I wish they would use this one in the US comic, really wouldnt contradict anything either so it could easily fit it

Welcome to the boards, Owner of a Lonely B.A.T..

Love the images posted, I probally know as much about the American GI Joe as you know about the European Action Force, but I reackon that Raina DeCobray would fit right into the Shads.

It was inevitable that :baroness: would spawn eine anderes kleine stute. Especially in der Schweiz. Just another target for :major: and :sas: really. Maybe even :quarrel: if she is not suborned round the back of her antiques shop in Basel.

If you want to meet her, try parties in Salzburg every first Thursday of the month. Otherwise she's in Lausanne on Saturday nights. When not importuned by Shad-esque villainry*

:quick:

* Er, yeah, let's face it, her outfit is totally :enemy:, she's rebelled over to the other side from that mad-Cobra school http://www.bloodforthebaron.com/Blood/S ... nakes.html

Which was obviously really in der Schweiz auch.

Ich danke gott für meinen gemütlichkeit in Garmisch.
