This is my custom AWE Striker, which was made from a Retaliation Snake-Eyes Ninja 4x4 vehicle. In real life these things were/are called FAVs (Fast Attack Vehicles). Originally they were equipped with a TOW launcher (like the ARAH toy), but that posed problems, so now they are fitted with a Browning .50 cal aka Ma Deuce! Mine has custom mini gun!! Boom-boom Fi-YA POW-WAR!!

I really like the angles of the roll bar on this version, but didn't like the middle support bar. So, that was the first thing to go. I seem to remember a green & black color scheme AWE Striker some time in the past, so that's the colors I went with.







I added a custom mini gun to the top, and the ammo belt & box from Retaliation 3pk Roadblock. The gas cans are from a Power Team Elite set.



The mini gun was made from parts from the cannon that comes with the new Star Wars Speeder Bike and the mini gun from Retaliation 3pk Roadblock. The stickers came from various Joe toys.

Comments & critiques appreciated

Thanks Tamer! We may not say it enough, but it really means a lot (to me at least) to check out ISY and to see your own custom work on the front page! I really appreciate how you try to put an update for every new custom on the front page.


Jason thank you for those comments. You can read my new comments on your new build on the front page again.
