I've never been a huge fan of Major Bludd. I don't hate him but he's not a fave either. I, like many others, was a bit disappointed with the Hasbro 25th version but with a little effort I came up with a version I can be happy with.
Head, right arm, dogtags, pistol: 25th Major Bludd
Torso: 25th Cobra Trooper
Left arm: 25th Flash
Upper legs: 25th Duke
Lower legs: 25th Crimson Guard
Rifle: Marauder Inc.
Chest armor: SW Clone Trainee
The 25th Viper wasn't as huge a disappointment to me that he is to most people. I do hate that I had to fix the hands but I came up with a nice simple fix that works well. I just cut off the Viper hands, drilled holes in the forearms and popped in a set of Cobra Trooper hands. They look good and the added bonus is that the forearms now have 2 joints, at the wrist and just above the gauntlet armor.
And here are a few simple headswaps I did. Snow Job has a SW Obi-wan head, Frostbite is a repainted 25th Rock 'n' Roll, Cobra Commander is a JvC CC head and Serpentor has a BBI pilot head. The CC head is a near perfect color match to the hooded CC. I just had to apply some semigloss clear to tone down the shininess. The head on Serpentor doesn't look that happy in person. Its just the camera angle and way the flash caused shadows that gives him that smirky look.
