THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!!

Much love for an underrated character. 
TIGRUNT is the bomb! Love the homage pose that you chose too - nice touch.
Cyber-timbits are hurtling towards you in a very imaginary way.

Hey, you're welcome man! That they are Cyber, imaginary or even real Timbits, I'll take them as long as they come from a real Grunt fan like you. And yes, I actually took the pic of Grunt in that pose, knowing that you'd pick up on the cardart hommage right away  ;). It took about 20 takes before getting it right.

This is a one shot custom project I worked on. It's a just a repaint of a Neo Viper that came with the ROC Serpent armour. His code name is Death Squad Viper aka Cobra Firing Squad trooper.

And here's the custom I've been working on these past days: Tiger Force Short Fuze.

I'll let the pics talk for themselves for now: enjoy!

Nice!  I love how you even added the hole to mount the mortar on his back!

Thanks guys!

Come to realize, I do have all the required parts to make a Tiger Force Ripcord so perhaps I will be able to take on Sundance's challenge one of these days.

I'm putting Tiger Force Blowtorch custom idea on the shelves for now until I find the parts that I need to make him.

I never was a big fan of TRU's Tiger Force Stalker so I might take you up on that one.

I hope you do make a TF Blowtorch.  Blowtorch and Ripcord are two of my all time favourite figures.

Yeah, the TF Stalker was a big bowl of "meh" for me.  The sneering Sonic Commando was a weaker mold and the blue was wrong.

You could do a simple one using the 82 or 83 mold.  The tundra Stalker could give you a nice one as well - but I thought V2 would also make a great Night Force guy too (my only attempted custom).

Night Stalker should be a helo pilot from the 160th SOAR; someone who flies Tomahawks or Little Birds into hairy areas to drop off Joes. or extracts them from hairy areas.
