I'm so happy with my work on my custom Commando Fi, that I want to bring all of Omega Squad to life. In order to do that, I'm going to need the Fi body (at least 2 to 3 more) and some other commando parts. If anyone has these parts and would be willing to sell/trade them, I would be eternally grateful.

It would be great to see you do the full set. I can see you doing Delta and Omega.

The delta boys are going for huge money these days so they might not be in the cards.

I can probably help you out here. You can send me a PM or I could also write everything on this thread - whatever you're up to.
Great idea on your RCs by the way!
-
Same here, I'll look through my boxes of figures and parts and see what I can spare. I believe I have those Scorch parts for you.

Well, this is what I collected over the last couple years. Asian seller Viperskingdom (who suddenly disappeared) sold this SOTDS RC "Boss" for $4.99 - without backpack and blaster though - but I managed to get 3 of those - free shipping!
I also found some Commandos on ebay and craigslist:
- Fixer ~ 4€
- Boss - 2,90€
- SOTDS Delta Squad for 5€ each
I got the TSC Scorch on sale at the moment, but I might keep it for another custom...
I see people offering Delta Squad loose for 100€ or more, but once in a while you can get them cheap! So if you got time, take it.
Also those extra weapons from the Saga Legends lines are a nice source for RC blasters!
If custom casted parts are an option for you, I can make all accessories for you. Clonehead is the master of resin casting here. He got me into making molds for the hobby. I really look up to him and if he got time and some parts left, you might wanna contact him.
I collected all those RCs for future customs. Here is a selection of skins of a Battlefront II mod, which I find very inspiring. And if you played the mod, you know how awesome those are! I especially like the Chaos Commando (upper right) and the Explosives Commando (down left).

Those are very nice. I managed to order one more articulated commando body, to use for making another member of Omega team. At this point, I'm only down trying to get a backpack like Fixer's (pictured below) and one last articulated commando. From there it will only be the work required to customize them.

P.S. - I've always been fond of the idea of having a commando with a Z-6 Rotary canon. Those are a blast. Literally!

I hope we get to see more RCs when TCW starts back up. Then, maybe we can get some rereleases of these and these crazy prices will go down.

Ok, I don't know if you're still looking for parts, but here's what I found:
Saga Scorch:
- figure: 9x
- backpack: 10x
- blaster: 11x + 2x in different paint scheme, so 13x total
- leg pouch/grenades(?): 10x
Black Clone Commando (same body as Saga Scorch minus the leg straps):
- figure: 3x
White Clone Commando (same body as the black commando):
- figure: 1x
So, these are all Clone Commandos from the Saga era, with way too little articulation. I've not been keeping up to date with the figures for ages, but it's a dang shame Hasbro never really upped the POA on these fine boys.
Anyway, let me know if there's anything you'd like. I can make a really sweet deal for this whole lot (= just shipping costs + a buck or two extra) 8)

They have articulated legs in the later edition figures. Those would include the Delta Squad vintage re-release and the Fi Skirata Commando Evolutions boxed set. Only those two breeds of Commando figures have full articulation. Do you have photographs?

I hope Mr.Black has talked to you about all details by now. I've been waiting to post my next reply on here for that. I already started making Fixer's backpack and the ammo pack of Scorch. More on that in my latest tutorial:

Talking about nostalgia and brilliant ideas, I found this video a couple days ago. Actually YouTube suggested it to me. I subscribed to Cloneheads channel years ago, but haven't watched his videos for quite a while, now. In case you haven't seen his concept before, look what he made:
http://www.imperialshipyards.net/SMF/index.php?topic=3324.0
So if you need custom made parts - he is the one to ask on the U.S. - there's probably nothing Clonehead couldn't do!

Clonehead is a forum moderator here. And a good friend. Whatever he touches is magic.

Here are two auctions on ebay I watched:
The loose Delta Squad shipped from Austria and was sold for 54€ on Sunday.
The new/sealed Squad shipped from Georgia and was sold for $115 plus shipping this morning.
Let’s hope Hasbro will give us a realistic style RC “Gregor” on Vintage Card or another Multipack with repaints of this Delta Squad from 2010 as Omega Squad this time around.
We need more Republic Commandos Hasbro!!
-
That's the dream pack, because the shoulders are even articulated. These are the most articulated commandos on the market currently.
