Ice Cream Soldier

Easily one of the most hated G.I. Joe characters ever produced, and constantly prone to ridicule by fans and collectors alike because of his "ridiculous" code name (which actually dates back to the old Sgt. Rock comics put out by DC), Ice Cream Soldier was initially released back in 1994, in both the last wave of the Real American Hero and Battle Corps series. Hey, let's be honest here. Flamethrower characters are always fun, so of course I had to make him. And being the character was essentially a blank slate in terms of look and personality, I thought giving him a unique, unmasked head would put a cool spin on him overall.

Formula:

Head and harness: Custom cast from RaginSpoon
Backpack: Buzzer v4
Incendiary weapon: Tombstone v1
Alternate head: Jurassic Park prototype
Everything else: Marauder Task Force

Paints used: Citadel, Model Master

Thanks for looking.
