Final Faction Arrow ATV

 

Just picked up the Arrow ATV from the Final Faction line from my local Dollar Tree. 

It's a durable vehicle for under 5 dollars and the build quality is durable and compatible with 3.3/4 figures.

I had some extra Crimson Guard sentries lying about that had no weapons or accesories and I've managed to gear them up with the accessory packs that come with Final faction figures. The end result is quite nice. 

Good vehicle for a good price. 

Update: Just received the Arrow ATV armour upgrade kit.

Cobra Commander

 

2015 Walk for Autism

Just finished the Walk for Autism at the University of Western Ontario dressed as Cobra Commander. I was teamed up with Dr Doom, Boba Fett, a Sandperson and a Dalek.

Later I got caught up with some old friends (Serpents courtesy of Little Ray's Reptile Zoo). Really happy as with my current work schedule I haven't been able to get out much.

So I got some exercise and had lots of pictures taken with people. In short a fun day.

London Rogues Sci Fi Fantasy Six

Managed to finally get some time off of work to attend a Science Fiction Con close to my neck of the woods. In the two days I was there I managed to display both my stormtrooper and my Cobra Commander outfits. Needles to say I was a big hit with the crowds and the pictures didn't stop.

Along the way I met some other incredible cosplayers as well as some great people who helped out a LOT. Kudos to all who attended and I hope to make it again next year... with possibly some new surprises along the way...

Here are some of the pics:

The Cobra Commander CQBR Project

Just working on another addition to my Cobra commander costume, this time I'm putting together a CQBR (Close Quarter Battle Receiver). This particular rifle was developed specifically for urban warfare. The CQBR is an attempt to combine the hitting power of an assault rifle with the compactness of a sub machine gun.

I managed to find the remains of this rifle in the bargain bin of my local Mil-surplus store and through a little perseverance, paint and parts hunting have come up with something that's not too bad and that old CC himself has given his nod of approval.

The rifle as I found it.	Didn't look like much at the time.
A stock I found in the parts bin.
A little bit of paint can work wonders.	Starting to show some promise.
Fully painted with stock & magazine added.
Added a scope.	And a tactical light.
The finished product.

And the final result:

COBRA!
