Recondo and Jammer

TR101AL · **Posted:** Mon Apr 14, 2008 11:09 pm

Hey all. Just finished a couple new customs. Recondo was always a childhood favorite. In my childhood Joeverse, he was an older Indiana Jones that joined the Joe's to protect priceless artifacts and could utilize govt. budgets to fund his various treks. Jammer was my take on the Action Force character. I wanted to give him a bit of individuality rather than just repainting a Stalker figure. After going through the links on YJ, I decided the solid green was a better look to make the firgure different. As always, I appreciate the feedback

Recondo

Jammer

I just went blind, for a few seconds, looking at Jammer!
Recondo is great. One of my all time favorite Joes, and you did him proud. :-D

recondo does look great, I think his legs are a little plump compared to his upper body but you did a great job with the paints. Jammer is bright but well done to, I ain't no AF fan though.

I agree with Tim, they both rock, nice job on the mods and paints.

Wow does Jammer glow in the dark? 8-O

hehe
Well I didn't realize it before but Jammer had 3 different color variations. Yours does look like the top one.

I'm debating just recoloring my Stalker's beret red & adding the Z Force logo. Then he would look like the 3rd pic. I will be getting the DVD Stalker so hmmm just maybe will do that.
Recondo looks great! :recondo:

Updated this morning with better pics. Thanks again for all the comments. Jammer doesn't glow in the dark, but hmm...could be some potential there. Maybe new Hazmat Trooper?

I was thinking Hazmat suit when I saw him.

I think the head is sitting a little high too. His neck seems just a smidge too long. The logo needs some work too. It looks like he is wearing a patch. If that is what you were going for, great. If not you may way to paint it on instead.

Recondo is perfect. I like him a lot.

Both are good.

Special kudos to you for not just using the 25A Stalker head. You can stand your Jammer and Stalker figures next to each other and they won't look like clones.

Yeah, was thinking that as well about the neck. May go back and trim it down a bit. As far as the logo, I SUCK at logo painting but print out didn't work as planned either. May have to make an attempt anyways.
