I'm so neglectful. :'(
So here's the big bunch.
Nitro-Viper: Because vehicle drivers need paint too! (mine's visor got stuck somewhere and got stretch marks all across the middle, so I had to paint over it all)
(http://http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t285/Detour84/Joe/NitroViper1.jpg)
Duke: Added paint under the vest, because I want to take that jacket off him every now and again.

Tiger Snake driver: Unaccessorized Elite-Vipers are pretty bleh, so I used a HOH Firefly body, MARS Trooper vest and Para-Viper helmet to make this driver. (next to him is a WIP of my ROC Zartan)
(http://http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t285/Detour84/Joe/StreetViperZartan.jpg)
Flint: Went with a British look for him since G.I.Joe is an international team in ROC, and he lead Action Force in Europe. 5-pack Sgt. Stone head, City Strike Duke body, ROC Hawk belts and Stalker's automatic shotgun.
(http://http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t285/Detour84/Joe/ROCFlint.jpg)
Zartan: 5-pack Zartan head (with Regular Zartan head preserved in the backpack), Street-Viper body, Pilot Destro scarf.
(http://http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t285/Detour84/Joe/ROCZartan.jpg)
Tunnel Rat: The "actual" ROC Tunnel Rat was just a 25th Anniversary Night Force Tunnel Rat, so I made my own. Shipwreck body, Hard Master head (modified with thicker eyebrows and a hand-sculpted bandanna), HOH Snake-Eyes webgear and explosives pouch, ROC Snow Job revolver and Resolute Duke rifle.
(http://http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t285/Detour84/Joe/ROCTunnelRat-1.jpg)
Stakeout: An original character (http://http://www.joecustoms.com/customs/customs_specific_item.php?kind=figure&uid=1258&id=6332) I made back when I did ARAH customs, updated for ROC. Gung-Ho body and vest, Tri-Gate "Bruce Sato" head, Pilot Destro revolver, Terminator shotgun.
(http://http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t285/Detour84/Joe/ROCStakeout.jpg)
Repeater: Pretty common custom there. ROC Footloose body, Zartan Disguise head.
(http://http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t285/Detour84/Joe/ROCRepeater.jpg)
Frostbite: When someone showed off how Arctic Shipwreck's head on Snow Job's body looked like the Battle Corps version of Frostbite, I had to do one for myself. Buuuuut the TRU exclusives never show up in Quebec, so I had to make due with a regular Shipwreck head. Also replaced the revolver with a regular Joe pistol.

Glenda: Updated from my previous posting of her with some gloves donated by the Star Wars "Starkiller Hero".
(http://http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t285/Detour84/Joe/GlendaGloves.jpg)
Hiryu: Another of my original characters, martial arts specialist. Went with a Bruce Lee catsuit look for him, with the Game Of Death sneakers. Tri-Gate "Storm Shadow Unmasked" head, 2009 5-pack Snake-Eyes torso, Python Cobra Trooper upper arms, HOH Storm Shadow lower arms, Ninja-Ku Storm Shadow upper legs, Legions CC lower legs, Paris Pursuit Storm Shadow feet, MU Ronin nunchaku and I have no idea where the staff came from.
(http://http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t285/Detour84/Joe/25thROCHiryu.jpg)
Lady Jaye: Flint needed his main squeeze, and ROC Dial-Tone was underwhelming. So I used her body with the head of the Joker Squad Girl Stormtrooper, and ROC Repeater's cap to make her.
(http://http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t285/Detour84/Joe/ROCLadyJaye.jpg)
Quarrel: Originally wanted to make her out of Agent [s:yxoqrbra]Mary Sue[/s:yxoqrbra] Helix, but then when City Strike Scarlett got cancelled/delayed I realized maybe that body would be needed for a Jinx custom. So I bought a Zellers half-off RA Scarlett and got to repainting. Head is from the "Starkiller Hero" figure, most accessories are from the bluecamo Scarlett and the pistol in the belt holster was picked at random.

She looks great riding the Jet Storm Cycle:

Same here for me Jay. Your original figure customs comprise some of your best work. And Quarrel and Zartan are my personal favorites, I actually do want them in my own collection, that's how good they are. You have outdone yourself this time (compared to the simple head or gear swap or small touch-ups I got used to see LOL). Really, good work, I am very impressed - Keep it up.

The quarrel is as fantastic as the bike is crap! That Jet storm is a real stinker.I like it. Plus, it comes with Snake-Eyes version 50.
I am very impressed with your current work.
And thanks!

But I like doing simple headswaps too. So don't expect those to just go away. :P
