First of all, thanks for all the comments!!! I hope there will be more :-) .

I had my doubts about Snowcuffs' lower legs too. Maybe I'll check my fodder bin again to look for more "arctic-suitable" boots. I also wasn't completely convinced of Laws head. That smile is a bit too happy for those weather conditions, aint it? :-P Plus his neck and face aren't covered against the cold.

You're right Nova, Bengal Tiger Trooper is not easy to make indeed. I got my NF Lightfoot in a figure lot without his accesoires. No I don't collect the Night Force so it ended up in my fodder bin (in a small plastic bag apart from the rest though, because I know it's quite valuable). Pretty expensive LBC, PP Officer head, NF Lightfoot arms, waist and legs. TF Tripwire torso is no problemo, but to make this one if you don't have the parts........Pfew, wild guess, it'll cost you US $40 maybe? If the parts weren't that hard to find (cheap) I'd army build the figure.

How about the names of the customs? Are they Joe-ish enough, yet catchy?

It's been a while, but I've changed Snowcuffs' feet and he does look more arctic this way.

The guy in front of the APC is my most recent LBC. I think he looks like a driver and since the APC hasn't got one , he probably will take that job. Or maybe some other desert vehicle, I don't know yet. I'm still working on his name, bio and ofcourse he needs a gun.

I was gonna suggest using the feet from Capt Grid-Iron for Snowcufs, but the Frostbite ones work alright.

Looks like you had fun doing these...

There are some good combinations here. I think it is really cool to see an LBC that is just parts swap because it takes me back to the things I used to do as a kid, to replace a broken middle piece or busted thumb.
