Confederation of Independent Systems Commando Unit A0 (CIS-C/A0) Group Shot.  They consider themselves "The Anti-ARCs".

 The squad leader "Alpha1", gunfighter.

 The squad techie/sniper "Zero".

 The squad heavy gunner/jet trooper "Goblin".

 The squad flametrooper "FireBug".



  Terrific customs man! They remind me of the characters from the "Army of Two" series-

Hey man, get those mandos so you can get Slag and Sludge to us quickly!  I think a cool thing you could have done for Grimlock, would have been to make him using a Bossk figure because he looks like an 80's Tyranosaurus, he has three fingers, and trandoshan+mandalorian=pure cocentrated awesome!  I think I may do a dinolorian squad myself and do that if you don't mind.  ;)
Call me master, cause I'm faster on fire.  I no longer have to hotwire, I'm a hunter for hire wit no plans to retire and all the sucka MCs can call me sire!  Screw the Jedi and the Sith.

Hey!  The Mandalorian...I just snagged a pair of bodies and will begin work on them sometime this weekend...provided the rain lets up so's I can prime them.  Your TrandoMando idea is, indeed, awesome...but beyond my capabilities as the bucket wouldn't have fit the head.  I tried to do a MandoTrando a while back.  Finally...have at it!  If anything I have done inspires anybody then that's just fantastic.

Thanks Darth, I never said the "trandmando" had to have a helmet though.  And as soon as Christmas comes I crack out my spending money and purchase all the figs I need for all the customs I wanna do, plus others like those battle of Endor sets.  Can't wait to see Slag and Sludge!

Great idea and execution with your anti-ARC troopers...I like the brushed metallic look you gave these guys.  Turned out very nicely!

Light side, dark side...meh.  Just give me a lightsaber and a blaster and I'll take care of it!

Thanks again everyone. 

JMT: My "Anti-ARCs"
are from a Jungle Viper from GI Joe.  Their metallic ghille suit went towards making my Digital Reaper Droids wings.

Any chance you could get me a pic and a page in this thread of any that I have missed. Your work is too good to keep off the front page.
