I have a couple of new modifications to share. The first is my version of Grunt and the second is a cobra Squad Sgt. Comments and criteria are always welcome.

I think they both look great, but that pistol holster hanging between his legs gotta go, or else you know what will happen when he runs, LOL, :-P

Nice job on them.

HA! Someone pointed that out on another board as well! Now I know it has to go! Glad you like it otherwise. I'll have to come up with a better positioning for that thing. Thanks for the comments. :-P

Thanks! The head is from an Anakin Skywalker from Attack of the Clones (he's the one that's supposed to be from the Dooku battle- he has two lightsabers with a magnetic removable arm and one of his hands spin when you turn a dial on his back). I chose him because of the "grunt" on his face- it reminds me a lot of the original card art.

Thanks again for the kind words.

That head suits the character so much better than the 3rd use of the Flash (that doesn't look like Flash) head.
