I picked up RoadBlock and the basic Joe Trooper at Wal-Mart yesterday. I'm planning on doing some modifications to RB.

Hands are from Sgt Stone from ROC  Feet are from Benchpress ROC tru exclusive fig

Hell yeah Chad!  You sure don't hesitate to get crackin on these customs. I'm just waiting till my days off from work. So do the Sgt. Stone hands just plug in? I already tried Night Adder hands but the pegs are a little small. I might have to beef up the hand pegs or fill in the arm socket. I'm guessing that's a Dutch from Predator custom on the left. Looks pretty sweet so far, just need to paint his beater green or camo. I think he could also just be a "what if" custom. By that I mean what if Arnold was made into a G.I.Joe character.

One more thing. Did you just have a Sgt. Slaughter head laying around or did you just pop his head off from one in your collection. I would love to get my hands on just his head. HELLO CASTING GUYS!!!!

The Sarge's head is from  a build n brawl wrestler figure. It was really rare. I got it from ebay and it was customized into a joe with a Benchpress figure. I like this a lot better. Yes the Stone handa plug in perfectly. Have fun!

Yah the Sgt Stone hands work great, I did the exact same thing to my Roadblock. I have a spare Bench Press layin around, might have to give his lower legs a try.  :)

Can I acquire/borrow/something that Benchpress head so I can mold it?

If I can find a Sgt Slaughter head, I'll give it a go... but that wide brim is gonna be hades for catching bubbles in the molding, let alone casting!

Picked up a Dollar General Shipwreck via Ebay. I think it's funny how the DG Joe's come with a stand and have full articulation but the Retaliation Joes do not.

Finally saved up enough to order the Dreadnok pack, got it today, barely had time to look but so far I like it. 

Updates Mon-Fri every week, also reviews and much much more.

Picked up POC Blowtorch and Cobra B.A.T. and also POC C.Commander at a Walgreens and a CVS. I think Hasbro is distributing more POC Joes due to the movie being delayed.

At this rate, the drug stores will have better selections than TRU and WalMart...
