Action Figure GI JOE Kitbash Parts Help and Trade Thread

Like I said, the cartoon wasnt & unless you can find one girl or kid size with the padding taken out its not possible to get that look 1/6 scale.

Actually, it is. There's a Dragon flack vest that we discovered doing custom Dillons (Predator) and rediscovered during the SB project that fits extremely tight on HT bodies (like the TTA and TTM19). It'll easily give you that look, without having to go a funky torn shirt route. I'll see if I can find it on the bay and post a link.

That's a super rare item. Congratulations if someone finds that.

I'll believe it looks right when I see a pic of one on... I used to have one of those vests.

It'll fit but zipping it up might be an issue. If you're not planning to do so then I think you'll be okay. Just have him rock a wife-beater underneath the FLAK vest.

Anyways.... that "funky" shirt route is cartoon correct.

Not really. To me it looks like a vest with a collar, not a shirt with the sleeves cut off.

Agreed.

that would spoil the ****-erotic image he has going on!

Each to there own then, that collat is a shirt collar to me + in the real world a vest would never fit like that. Like I said, each to their own.

Shirts are long enough to be tucked in.

I can understand you defending a decision to use on your own, but don't state it's correct, when it's clearly not.

Tactical vests, yes. Fashion vests, yes and no. Nice try though.

Go with a photographer's vest. Like this one:

Dye it powder blue.

To be honest, I was thinking about going this route. But with that cartoon blue that he has a couple shade duller.
