I have a list of the WR that I want to make and the Bulletproof Bomb was on the list but it may never end up being made. I've been working on the Army Surplus Special and Mean Machine for months and months now so who knows. Right now all I've gotten completed is the Pink Pussycat as a motorcycle.

I was thinking of Fatman and Little Boy, with the same idea about rider and ride, but the connection to Hiroshima and Nagasaki is pushing me away from them.

I dig the other names you came up with. I am so gonna use See-Four for something.

I may just go with Ka-Boom since that's what is written on the side of the bomb to begin with but I don't know for sure. I've spent the last couple of hours trying to decide if there is anything else I want to do to it or if I want to keep it super simple. I like the lines of it as is. I was kinda thinking this has no weaponry other than itself, basically, the rider rides it as close as he can to another competitor before locking on, ditching, and watching the thing blow on impact. Maybe give the rider some sort of offensive weapon/weapons of some sort.

I've even been going back and forth on paint. Do I keep it red and yellow or paint it up to look like a bomb, maybe put some sort of nose art on it?

For the driver, I like the way the figure on it in the pic sits on it I just don't know what head and gear I'd use. I'd love to use a Resolute Duke vest on the rider along with a head like Renegades Cobra Commander. I have the head but not the vest.

There's still a lot to do on it so nothing is set in stone.

Ooooh, I've been collecting some parts for an Army Surplus Special too. Got a couple of those Kong Island jeeps (or was it that new Corps one) and various tracks. I think I have a turret in mind.

I was trying to bring it into the JOEverse, maybe as a Battle Force 1980/DARPA project.

I figure the Battle Force 2000 was just one of the iterations of the Future Soldier program, but also keeping up with the idea the JOEs were like 5 years ahead of everyone else in weaponry (Flash's laser rifle, the HAL, JU<P, etc)...

If the rider just uses it as a bomb then bonzie might be fitting. Maybe zero hero for the rider. I just thought of bonzie betty.

That HQ never even crossed my mind. What is wrong with me?

I do like the Roxy Rocket idea. My daughter has the figure in her collection. The bomb isn't as aerodynamic as her rocket but that could still work. Plus the races could use another female.

A WIP update on the Army Surplus Special. Still waiting on an order from Marauder. Once that comes in I’ll prime it all and finish it up.






And lastly a WIP update for Roxy. I haven’t picked a head or accessories yet. I do know I didn’t want the boots, yes I know Roxy wears boots. I like that the feet fit the pegs.
