Swamp Rat - Cobra V-Troops Infiltrators

I'm not sure what a "V-Troop" is actually.

Valor vs. Venom is one part of the Joeverse I haven't delved into yet. The only reason I even know about Swamp Rats is because one comes bundled with Snake Eyes (v23).



I picked up the Snake Eyes \ Swamp Rat set because I liked that version of Snake Eyes, but the Swamp Rat has kind of grown on me. He has a kind of alien look that is pretty intimidating.

I still had an extra Heroclix Man of Steel Soldier, so I used green stuff to mod his helmet and give him the cape thing.

I wasn't expecting it, but I think the outcome is one of the cooler looking Cobra troops I've done.

Way to go, Swamp Rat!

Scarlett - Counterintelligence Agent (Valor vs Venom)

Another version of Scarlett? Heck yeah!

This time it's Valor vs Venom Scarlett.

When I first saw the figure for VvsV Scarlett, I didn't think much of it. But when I saw it used on the card art for the G.I.Joe Trading Card Game (more on that later), I started to like it.





It's a different look for Scarlett, but it works.

For this version of Scarlett, I used the Star Wars Deliah Blue miniature.

I imagine the black sash is a hold over from her Ninja Force costume (which I may get to eventually.)

Agent Jinx - Covert Infiltration Specialist

I'm a little on the fence about the name change from "Jinx" to "Agent Jinx". I like the simplicity of "Jinx" but that name is used a lot for different characters. If you search for "Agent Jinx" though, you pretty much only get the G.I. Joe character (and maybe Halle Berry).

Either way, I *do* like the redesign of her outfit.

For her Valor vs Venom outfit, I used the Heroclix Katana and added the crossed belts with green stuff.

I tried to paint her with the blindfold. Not sure how well that comes across.

I like this design enough that I'm tempted to track on of the figures down.
