This is not a secret at all... some vintage Joe parts and accessories are really hard to find. I'm thinking about:
- 1983 APC seat belts
- 1985 EELS mouthpiece
- 1985 Moray Hydrofoil spolight lens
- 1985 Snow Serpent missile stand
- 1985 Dusty bipod
- 1985 Heavy-Metal mic
- 1987 Falcon antenna
- etc.
Even on eBay, those parts and accessories don't show up very often... So, what do you do to remplace them? Have you find a good remplacement part that works pretty good like the original?
For example, I replaced the accessories below by:
- 1985 EELS air nose --> I used a 1986 Wet-Suit black mouthpiece (but I still prefer the original EELS part...)
- 1985 Dusty bipod --> I used Marauder John FAMAS Assault Rifle (my best $1 investment!)
- 1985 Heavy-Metal mic --> one of my friend used Marauder John Helmet mic
- 1987 Falcon antenna --> I used a black paper clip cut in half (it looks really great!)
But I'm still looking for replacement tips for others. Any ideas?
Thanks to all,
Martin
