    8" Adventure Team GI Joe

    This is my version of an 8" GI Joe Adventure Team member using a repainted and flocked hair Zica/Cast A Way AJ head, Type S body, jumpsuit and boots.

    The belt and pouches are from CTVT's Sheriff outfit and the Beret was made by cutting the brim off a CTVT Police hat.

    The .45 Pistol and holster(repainted), knife and sheath(repainted) are from the Playing Mantis AJ.

    The Thompson sub machine gun was shrunk from a 1/6th scale one, then cast and painted.

              The figure is brilliant and trimming the police cap for a beret is sheer genius! Superbly done!

                          That is phenomenal. A lot of these are parts that I know well, and yet I hardly recognized them after you worked your magic.
