looks good til you get to the legs. They look too GI-Joe for Star Wars.  Still cool though man.

have you seen my other figures?...  this was more to bring the character into my own style.  I know I labled him as "legacy" but it's more of a joe style blending...  that's why I put legacy in quotes. lol.

I do have an issue with the holsters, they are awfully bulky and kind of distracting.  Problem is that I made new guns for him out of the pistols that come with wild bill, so they fit in those holsters...  I could make some from scratch but I'm afraid that it'd look worse than those do.

[Tamer]

To be honest, if not Wild Bill, I do not know which legs you would use. It would have to be some type of cowboy type action figure.

I think it looks legacy or regular figure style. Heaven knows Spud you are the only one who is gonna be able to give us a non emaciated figure. I think it looks spot on.

I didn't mean no offense to you, cuz it's a cool custom, plus I love Cad Bane, it's just GI-Joes have a unique look that is instantly recognizeable to me cuz I collect them too. I would feel the same way if somebody tried to swap Star Wars stuff into GI-Joe. I just think the Joe's stuff is a little too bulky, and that brings me back to the '95  Hasbro collection with Buff figures.
Keep up the good work man.

hey, I never take offense!  constructive criticism is what I'm here for.    Your right about it looking very joe-ish.   I'm actually working on trying to find a different set of joe parts for the body and legs to try and make him seem less bulky.  I think I might wind up using a cobra comander fig from the new ROC line.  I didn't want to go with that one originally but I think it might work better, and it's always worth a shot.

thanks for all the comments guys, especially those that were critical!
