I'm finally happy with my Kamakura. Thanks to Sgt Humpty for the final touch of painting the neck black for me.
It's the Retalliation Kamakura with DG SS's head. The sash is from Red Ninja turned around and the backpack had the peg cut off and put onto the belt so it didn't sit so high.
Just for fun, here he is with his hood, but I don't think I'll be using the hood though.

Thanks to Sgt. Humpty for painting the head and neck, my Scrap Iron's skin tones match now. The only thing I wish was that this was the cancelled one so the parts would be a match to the vintage one, but I'm happy with what I have here. The helmet was dug out by hand with drill bits and an exacto knife. Don't know why Hasbro couldn't make it removable since it was so big anyways.

Thanks to Fesifisky from HISSTANK.com who painted the canopy, now I have the HISS V5 I always wanted. Now both my HISS tanks have the glass canopy and rubber treads.

I like the 25th Hit N Run. I only wish he came with some climbing gear and that he could actually bend his elbows more than 10 degrees.
I cut the upper arm to give him more range of motion and gave him Arctic Snake Eyes' climbing gear.
You can see where I trimmed on his arm so he can do a two handed grip on his weapno:
Using the climbing gear:
With his gear packed up on his backpack:
close up of the caribiner setup:
Slaughter's Renegades.
I have finally finished tweaking all 3 of my Renegades. The hardest was finding web gear for Red Dog that fits. It's big but I just treat it as a modular pack where he has room for another pack underneath. I'm done with them though. It's taken long enough and I've had it with tweaking these guys...haha.
Group shot:
Red Dog:
I gave him Airborne's head, 25th single pack Torch's legs with a modified webgear from Arctic Snake Eyes with Dusty's backpack.
Mercer:
I modded his thigh to fit the holster on his legs and gave him the backpack and pistols.
Taurus:
I modded his knees so he can stand straight, gave him Zanzibars web gear and modded his vintage backpack to fit
I also cut a hole in his holster so the pistol sits lower. It's hard to see. I couldn't get a good pic.

This is my favourite part of the vintage Joes. I used to do so many of these swaps. Looks good.

Hi, here's my Recoil. Not a true translation of the vintage one, but it's close enough for me as again, no paint was required. The hat was from Raginspoon. The backpack hole of the vest and the hole on the figure don't line up so I just mounted the backpack to his vest. Just for fun, I took some pics with his vintage gun, but it'll be the 25th Airborne gun shown in later pics that I will go with.

I wish the Fangboat came like this from Hasbro:
I got a second one for $10. Now gotta figure out what to do with it.

Here's my modern Budo. The only things I still want to do is I'm still trying to get a hold of a vintage Budo helmet and his sai as the sai on the backpack right now is too small and falls out easily. Would also love to get his Funskool sword (cause it's not red). If anyone can help, please let me know.
As it stands, here he is now and he's basically finished unless I get a hold of the vintage stuff I asked for above.
