    Good idea.
    I have a Knight of Darkness torso that I put all Mike Power limbs on. Both arms and both legs. I used it in a Henshin Cyborg costume for a while. Luckily they look ok on either side.

    How about grabbing some Atomic Man body parts, and having a mobile repair station with arms and legs hanging back there

    Thank you. Yes, just wet-sanding some scratches and then buffing it up.

    I need think of something to add to the back as gear for the green MARS ATV. A death-ray lol.

The AT seismograph plastic matches the vehicle body and I may put it in the back as a cyber-monitor.

    The green Action Man Power Hog I nabbed will get some new stickers as a MARS ATV for the Man of Evil.

    I'm finding the Joes very therapeutic lately.
    Sounds cool! Are you staying with the orange/red color or going a different route?

    I remember that you collect the 1969 Joes and I'd love to see what you have!

    ^ I love the neoprene suits that Cotswold sells! I have been thinking about getting another one.

    Absolutely, Paul at 3SB has been very good to me, we trade a lot.

    Good to know that the Cots cap will look OK in the tray, thanks much.

    I have Diver's Distress-type gear in the large compartment of the Aquatray, may have to upgrade to a neoprene suit like yours...

    ^ Yes. Tan cap is from Cotswold. I had to do just a little bit of reshaping with hair dryer heat and pressure while it cooled to the piece I got, but it came out nice. If I find an original, I'll swap it in, but I am okay with the Cotswold version. The pants are original ones that I found on eBay.

    3SB and Cotswold are both excellent to deal with and I am glad they both exist! I missed out on their Aqualocker. It was sold out by the time I found 3SB.
