    Creating an Action Jackson U.S. Marine

    My ongoing AJ project continues. Right now I need to create a U.S. Marine.. So I got this Aussie Marine from an eBay auction last week,which has arrived now, and a good guy here has offered to make a helmet available, so he looks less like an Aussie Marine and more like a U.S. Marine. But he still needs....something. I'm thinking the something might be a backpack of some sort, as well as a grenade to be throwing. Any suggestions for getting either of those, a ninth-scale backpack or a grenade?

    I don't think a grenade or backpack will make him look more like a US Marine.
    All armed forces across the world use both as standard issue.

    Maybe try making him a little American flag for his uniform.

      I think maybe I wasn't clear in my post. i wasn't necessarily looking for something that will make him look more like a U.S. Marine and less like an Aussie Marine. I think the helmet will pretty much take care of that. I was just saying he somehow still would not look complete without SOMETHING extra, hence the hope for a backpack of some sort.

        How about Modifing a scuba tanks in to a flame thrower, The generic ,12 in FT gun can be cut down to 1/9 scale.
