What version of Cross Hair hat is he wearing?

(http://http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3200/3158187835_e3d5c88736.jpg)

My computer screen is kinda old and the colours are a little off. So I'm not 100% sure which one he is wearing, can you help?

#3 http://www.yojoe.com/action/04/crosshair3.shtml (http://www.yojoe.com/action/04/crosshair3.shtml)

My guess is #3...

While the yojoe entry for 3 looks physically the closest, Colorwise 1 seems to match.

Honestly thou.... I wouldn't be surprised if the one in the picture was modded, or is not one of the stock pieces shipped with Cross Hair.

I think the figure and accessories have been moded.  I'm sure LJ will know for sure!

Negative, Bandonov - in other words I don't know  ;D. This calls for a real Spytroops expert...which I'm not.

Of personal opinion, I think it's been moded since I used to own the Torpedo figure (from the Valor Vs Venom TRU Whirlwind and Vamp repack) and it looks like the hat was either recasted or repainted to match the grey colors of the figure.The again, the pic could've been shopped we can't know for sure.

FYI, I remember that Chief Torpedo was pictured on the back of the box wearing a hat and vest from Cross Hairs...

Yeah, I was disapointed when I learned that the hat wasn't included with the figure :(

Hasbro was planning on doing a mail-away vest and hat, but never got around to doing it  :shifty:

Torpedo doesn't get the respect that his filecard or comic persona deserves!
