On the left here is the Kid Connection version of the Chap Mei figure I had in mind. I don't know if he has an "official" True Heroes counterpart, or what it looks like. (Patch has a very similar body and profile, but the helmet differs in style and he has no shades.) The one on the right is Barracuda from True Heroes. He might actually be a closer match now that I look at him.  |

I don't shrink anymore. I haven't for a long time as there weren't enough items that i personally wanted enlarged. I mold and cast a lot (or did before 3d printing and other techniques). However ! There is a guy that does shrink and cast often in the toy community. He used to be on Hisstank but has had his own website for years now. I think both AVAC and Vortious have shrunken casts. Many of their items (heads in particular, actually) appear to be adapted from 6''. |

Ahhhh theres a head that could pass for Roughneck...
What sets does he come with? I'm trying to recall if I have seen him down here.

You can always cut the mustache off Buckshot too. I had been meaning to cut it off for a while and thought he looked a lot like roughneck. I need to sand some stuff down still, but I quickly cut off his mustache and squared off his glasses. Simple green paint scheme on the helmet and painted the glasses black. I'm waiting on the El Jefe fig to mod the head since I don't know what that looks like yet.  |

Green dude came in an army builder pack, but the pack assortment saw a refresh recently so he's not part of the current rotation, unless he's one of the random vehicle pack-ins (and I don't think he is). Barracuda comes in a couple sets, most notably including an exo-suit, but also in a 2-pack. |

Well, the Sentinel 1 exo-suits are common over here, so if you want one...

TRU had a lot of True Heroes vehicles, figs and sets for 30% off online including the exo suits.

Swivel wrists would be nice.
Some of the older figures being used again would be welcome.

I just want the comic expanded a little to give the characters more character beyond the bios on the site.

The comic is currently the only way to experience the Corps narrative and it would be nice to have something a bit larger ... not Hama levels of ARAH but more than the rare 2 pagers. |

My studio and I pitched a comic series to them. They turned us down citing cost issues but the latest rumour is that they have approached or will be approaching Image...
