Hi
As I havent got a stalker Im going to make my own out of the original joe figure, am i right in thinking that the only grey bits are the grenade, dynamite bit and mask?
And to make him really authentic I have to put a bit of paint rub on his nose?!
thanks

you should really consider getting a 25th anniversary stalker instead, there really are superior toys and look amazing when converted to AF characters
you can find them pretty cheap too
big bad toystore has them like for 5 dollars I think

thanks for the suggestion but I hate the 25th style articulation and resent hasbro for updating them and making them so different...
I want all my collection to be able to sit side by side and not look too out of place (bar the odd kraken and skeletron), with 25th Id have to start all over again and essentially have two collections so I refuse to buy anything but some of the updated vehicles like the flight pod...
sorry, rant over! but appreciate the suggestion...

ah I see! got ya, but IF THEY DO A QUARREL ( which Im being told is very very likely since we have a photo of one ) THEN EVERY MEMBER on this BOARD HAS to order at least 2 (and Ill be arranging a deal with someone to do that) ............
its a mandatory thing for members of this board LOL !
( just kidding..............or am I?)

not being a Mod or anything, but I think TKW meant "Stalker" as in Snake Eyes, but I think Jamar was referring to Lorenzo Stalker.
btw have to agree with TKW that currently the 25ths are of such a different scale to classic Joe, that they really don't go together, except maybe the odd Quarrel.

Yes sorry I did mean stalker as in snakes, think I mentioned I was using an original snake eyes as the base...
I have some 25th figs and love the accessories, Ive used quite a lot of them in customs but im not a fan of the figures at all...
So! Does Stalker / snake eyesv1 / sas panther driver only have a grey mask, grenade and leg bit??!??!?!?!?
