Skystriker (Tiger Force)

First released in 1988 as part of the Tiger Force sub-team, Skystriker was a "Frankenfigure", meaning he used existing parts from 2 other figures to create a new one (Wild Weasel and Ripcord, respectively). When he was released again in 2015 as part of the convention set, he was, once again a "Frankenfigure", this time made up of parts from Tripwire, Snow Job, and Sgt. Airborne, and looked even less like his original incarnation. What I did here was try to get him to look closer to his first design, and added the removable helmet which the newer version lacked. Tiger stripes created with the use of a Micron .005 pen.

Formula:

Head: Duke v38
Body: Wild Weasel v6
Helmet: Custom cast from AVAC'S Lab
Pistol: Fodder bag

Paints used: Citadel, Model Master

Thanks for looking.
