      Yes I will reply the desert crimson guard. Did you ever think a polical office role like the old Soviet Union, enforce Cobra doc. and keeping an eye on the commanding office of the unit. You know the old saying keep your friends close and the enemy closer.

      But why they got two figure in the pack beat me. I think the retool of the croc master with the A.V.A.C. didn’t go way

      I just finally got around to opening up my Defense of Cobra Island set. I love it!

      Justin, re: your issue with Mindbender’s bowlegged knees, I’d recommend filling a bowl with boiling water and then dipping his legs into it. The heat from the water will soften the plastic in the knee joints until they have straightened. You can then dip him in a bowl of cold water and then you’ll have perfectly straight legs!

      The hot water trick works great with soft rubber weapons as well (like Pit Commando’s submachine gun) and can be used to make loose hands tight again.

      Cheers,

      Also, Re: Mindbender, if you pull down on his metal suspenders down more, to cover his belt, you’ll find the suspenders won’t bunch up so much in the middle and will go in their proper place (on the left and right side of the chest) giving him a more accurate look.

      You got the best Joe reviews on the ‘net!

      For me, SPC Altitude from the Assault on Cobra Island set is the original Ripcord. The design is pretty much identical. Even his picture on the back of the box is the same as Ripcord’s original card art back in the 80’s.
