Took me so long to get these guys finished up and posted

The Consortium is the international criminal alliance. Headed by global tychoon Philip Delecroix, a french buisnessman and financier of the underworld. Together with the Gong Tau Tong (more on thm later) and the Faulkner Group (again later), they drive and control the syndicates of the world.

Very nice, the color scheme is great for this tipe of customs.

Looks cool.

The color contrast on the Consortium Agent is wicked. Very nice little group.

Very cool idea and execution.

I love these guys! It seriously looks like they are comic characters like. 3demensional off the page.

Those are some nice, crisp, uniform paint jobs. A wonderful use of the parts on the Consortium troopers.

The first guy looks like Gomez from the Addams Family

Thanks for all the comments and compliments. I always wished they'd given the Joes more organizations to fight against. The Headmen seemed a little small time to be any real threat, and Cobra cornered the terrorist nitche, while M.A.R.S. & Extensive Enterprises had the whole corporate thing covered. The next angle would have to be globalized, organized crime.

I have to admit Delecroix does look like Gomez, heh.
Thanks again.

Phobus,

Awesome job across the board. Really nice concept and re-use of those vehicles and figure parts.

I did have on question. When did you land that Elite Operations vehicle? Was it recent? It looks a lot like the Marine Shadow vehicle. If so, I got to head on over to my local TRU again.

Nicely done. Excellent backstory and well-executed customs. I've got to get me one of those Little Birds.

I've had that for over a year. It was a three pack of vehicles and soldiers. There was a helicopter (which I turned into an OG chopper), a boat which I've had almost completed for a Dreadnok pirate boad and this truck. They pulled them off the shelves for a while I believe due to that whole TRU lead paint scare a while back. I'm just now starting to see this line return to the shelves in quantity.
