SOS GI Joe Rescue Agent Custom Action Figure

This could very well be my best custom without using paint nor sculpting, just recombining original pieces. Combining parts to make a new Joe without paint nor sculpting is an art, and a difficult one :) .  SOS is a rescue GI Joe operative, always ready to help whoever is in need, in hazardous and adverse situations.




Rosen Ritter Legend of the Galactic Heroes 銀河英雄伝説 Ginga Eiyū Densetsu GI Joe action figure custom

For this custom I inspired in a anime cartoon, the Legend of Galactic Heroes. I casted the awful movie Cobra Commander head, as I sold the figure and thought the head could be interesting if used on another topic. Then it struck me the resemblance with the Rosenritters, a special force that boards enemy spaceships with axes, as explosive gas is previously injected to prevent laser weapons to be used. Anyway, I thought it would be cool to make him in Gi Joe form, moreover that the Overkill body suits very nicely the character.

It could serve the Joeverse as a mercenary spaceman, used by Cobra or other nefarious forces.
