NICE!!  The bits of the filecard I can read sound cool, the codename actually being in French is an awesome touch, and the figure looks great! (Excellent work salvaging the cut wrist articulation and making it look like there's pullover sleeves above the swivel. It looked awkward on Duke and everyone else that had flesh painted above and below the cut, but the gray sticking out from under the sleeve roll here totally works!) hell yes, this is just awesome! |

Wow! That's the most creative use of those dreaded Duke arms I've ever seen - great work to all those who are putting this project together.
I did plan to attened the convention pretty early (lined up for 45 mins last year) and I kinda got scared when people in another thread were talking about camping out overnight and such, but hell if the convention set is going to be THIS promising I might haul my butt outta bed at 5AM and do the 1-1.5 hour drive to Hamilton just to be in the line.

if the black jackal here is a tank stripper, it would beg the question "is there a tank for him to strip?" *nudge* *nudge*
Taking wife to Montreal for b'day surprise at the end of May, I'm going to have to see how I can save at least two bills for "other" purposes now...

Well, you've already SEEN a Joe tank... Would it make any sense for him to strip a Cobra one? |
