When the 1986 figures came out, Wetsuit and Beachhead were my favourite.  The only reason I got the Devilfish was that I loved the box art with Wetsuit and Beachhead on it.  That's also why I loved the cover of issue #47 of the comics so much too.

When the club showed the Wetsuit figure and that it used a lot of POC Beachhead parts, I was thrilled.  I went and got a POC Beachhead after I confirmed I was able to get Wetsuit.  I thought they would look cool side by side.  However, I wanted some elements of the scuba gear on Wetsuit so I made some changes and have him displayed with Beachhead now. 

However, the scuba mask is too big to fit on the Wetsuit head. <!-- s:( --><!-- s:( -->
I swapped out the head and put Chuckles head on the body.  Now, the hat won't fit anymore...haha. I'm debating which of the two helmets to use.  The smaller one in the pictures might look too small for him but the color is a perfect match.  The Breaker helmet seems to make his head look huge.  I don't know which to use.  Maybe I might mod a Benchpress hat to see if I can make it fit (I don't want to mod the Wetsuit at all so I can revert him back).

What do you guys think?

Here's all the Original 13 figures that I had made some change to it.  I've put them all in one thread.  I actually just finally finished Grunt last night.

The only ones that I left exactly the way Hasbro gave it to us were Hawk, Snake Eyes, Scarlett and Zap.  Some of these were posted before, but I'm just consolidating them all.  Only Grunt is new. 

Here's a list of what I've done to them:
Grunt: 
Head: Greenshirt trooper.  His head looks more like the Spy Troops Grunt which I liked better.
Webgear: SRO Grunt
backpack: vintage Grunt's modified to fit
Rest: comic pack Duke

Steeler:
helmet: BrokenArrowtoys cast
visor: vintage
lower arms: comic pack Duke
hands: random pair of black Snake Eyes
Rest: Steeler

Grand Slam:
head: DTC Grand Slam
jetpack: Skyduster
Rest: Target Grand Slam

Short Fuze:
head and Mortar: Short Fuze
Webgear, hands and backpack: Zap
helmet and visor: Flash
Lower legs: Clutch
Rest: comic pack Duke

Rock N Roll:
arms and hands: Skyduster
holster: Duke
Rest: Rock N Roll

Clutch:
arms and hands: TF Flint
Rest: Clutch

Flash:
not really anything to it, I just didn't like how Hasbro change his gear to silver so I slapped on a Breaker backpack and Night Watch laser trooper's rifle to give it the vintage color look.

Breaker:
arms: TF Flint
hands: Cobra Flint
head: Benchpress
backpack: vintage modified
Rest: Breaker

Stalker:
I liked the UBP version better.  Just gave him TF Duke's gun.
