Vapor is another squatter in the village for lost obscurities of GIJoe... which is totally my favorite playground of the line, so an Anniversary reworking of the old H-VTOL design was definitely called for. In my verse he and WW are always getting into pissing contests though their actual pilot skills are about equal: they wouldn't be a couple of the world's primo flight jockeys if they didn't have huge egos and a determination to one-up the other at every chance.

My buddy who goes by the name "Straxus" created the head here for a Star Wars droid and sent me a cast just 'cuz he wanted to see how I'd use it for a Cobra. And I did the figure in the vein of Wild Weasel because I like the consistency of both pilots wearing similar flight gear but keeping individual color preferences... and picking their own flight helmets.

Straxus also did my "dio picture" for me:

That helmet rocks. And overall it's the perfect update for that character.

I like the helmet for Vapor as well. The black uniform might not have the cool factor that the original Vapor's does but it works for Cobra pilots very well.
