Need some help

General Jones Veteran Offline --> Posts: 345 --> Join Date: Jan 2007	Need some help Hey peeps, I was watching the original Predator the other day and got the urge to do some customs of the Dutch's team. The first 3 that I am going to try are Billy, Blaine, and Dutch. I wanted to get some ideas about what pieces you guys think would work. I will be doing this with o-ring figures. Some of the ideas that I had were. Blaine: Head: 92 Gung Ho with Gnawgahyde hat Torso: 06 Hannibal Arms: Big Boa Legs: Gear: Marauders Mini Gun Billy: Head: Either 84 Spirit or 92/93 Spirit Torso: Arms: 87 Big Boa Legs: 88 Muskrat Gear: PP Copperhead Black Rifle, 88 Hit N Run knife Dutch: Head: 90 Altitude Torso: Arms: 86 or 88 SGT Slaughter Legs: 91 Heavy Duty Gear: PP Copperhead Black Rifle This is as far as I got so far and thought I'd poll the crowd here to see if you could help me. Like I said, I'm only doing this using O-ring figures, but any 25th gear such as web gear would be a welcome suggestion. Thanks again. __________________ Chuck Norris doesn't Tea Bag.

Marauder Inc. has an M-4 that you could swap the stock on or cut off the shotgun and add to a basic M-16 (the route I'll probably take). I'm a bit stuck on the legs, myself. They're all wearing basic BDUs, though knives and canteens and such would allow you to use different thighs. I keep waiting for an "a-ha!" moment, but it hasn't come yet.

Find the 15th Century BBI figures. They come with Tons of canteens and knives so you can cut and glue together
