    Custom Retro 8-inch Mego Style "GI Joe: A Real American Hero", ROCK'N'ROLL

    This is a previous custom. I made some changes from dessert camo to green and got a more appropriate gun.

    Nice--I like the green tones. Could you share the origin of the vinyl vest?

      Dude, I've been trying to figure out where I got that vest from myself!! I found it in a bin of mine. I will check but something tells me it comes from those Mattel WWE Build-A-Wrestler packs that KMart used to have.

        I bet you're right! I bought some of those for wings, etc. Thank you and keep these coming--I'd love to see you do Zartan.

          The vest came off of a WWE Mattel Randy Orton "Tribute to the Troops". It looks pretty easy to still get on ebay. And, yes, I've been thinking about Zartan. The FTC Lex head would look pretty sweet!
