Any good alternate to T-800 pants for RoadPig. I saw a pair on "the bay" that have little slit pockets on the thigh. I am worried they will not fit though.

I have a pair and they are a bit too YMCA.

The T800 pants are fine but a bit baggy on the Kaustic since it doesn't have the big thighs and ass that the HT body has.

I'm looking hard for a Cobra officers or troopers uniform in blue with the helmet

I could trade the sniper uniform and helmet for it. Nothing on eBay for a while now

Re: GI JOE Kitbash Parts Help Thread

I have been kitbashing a figure from my overall favorite parts...mostly Sideshow, but there are a few other companies represented as well.

I am a big fan of the black equipment, so that is what I am centering on.

I started out with a True Type...I am pretty sure it is the 16, but I have not really paid attention to the numbers. I used Firefly's dark grey portrait (I know, but it is close...I may look to get a Skipaint on it), Snake Eye's shirt and pants, Hawk's Holster and pistol, Beachhead's 4-mag pouch, black .45 mags from a couple different Sideshow Joes, ACI boots, Stalker's TAD Fast Pack, and the small pouches from Hot Toys' Chris Redfield. That is where I am so far.

I want to finish him with Snake Eyes' V2 gloves (or Beachhead's, they are the same), the same figure's knife, Beachhead's vest or Stalker's, Snake Eye's V2's, or The Cobra Trooper's chest rig, and the V2 Snake Eyes' rifle and mags.

For the moment, the parts that I need and are available are Beachhead's gloves, The Cobra Trooper's chest rig, and the black .45 mags. If anyone has them for sale or trade, or has a lead on where to find them, please let me know.

Noone in particular. Just putting together the equipment that I like into a general figure.

Why dont you just paint any of the others Joes gloves black. I used a pair of Dusty and Dukes for my 2 Steel Brigades. All the Joes have the same gloves (excluding the 1st Snake Eyes).

My own paint jobs rub off.

Re: GI JOE Kitbash Parts Help Thread

Just for the hell of it, here is what he looks like so far.

I have actually worked with the blousing of the boots since I took this shot, so he looks a lot better, now.

Pull? None of the Joes have necks sculpted to the heads.

PM ProgMatinee. I believe he bashed a Cutter.

Re: GI JOE Kitbash Parts Help Thread

I used an old Hasbro CC hat. Believe it came with a Coast Guard figure. Decent hat, but not really a "baseball" hat. The one in your pic is better than mine as far as shape.

This cloth hat looks good to me, but you have to paint it.
