Casie "Honey Badger" Colt: Mercenary Joe Soldier WORK IN PROGRESSThis is a new work in progress female GI Joe figure. The head is a casting of a Joe fig I believe, or it may be an original sculpt (I'm really not sure). Anyways, I bought it on ebay, along with the custom original sculpt female torso. Both came from the Angel Forge. Check them out, they have really cool custom action figure parts.

The photo below shows how I ended up attaching the lower and upper torso parts. This custom cast torso required a ton of dremeling and sanding to get a good seamless fit, and to hold the arms in place as well. By the time I had everything test fit and smoothed out, the torso peg didn't want to go in. Sithfire30, a brilliant sculptor and figure designer had mentioned that he uses magnets to hold pieces together instead of pegs, because pegs end up wearing out and magnets give a strong hold that still allows for full articulation. I think I may be a total convert from here on out.
