C'mon! Give us a hint like you did with Godzilla! GE brings good things to life! I guess we'll just have to wait...

I'll tell you. It's a radio scout. He's for calling in back ups. I'll do some pictures today once I get the chance and show you where I am right now.

Radio Scout front. Radio Scout side. Label. Effect. The effect would use the "power-up" clips that we were talking about. The special will be "Attackback for 2 launcher figures". Endor Scout, Dare Devil base, Sand Trooper backpack. I still need to paint the radio in his hand. I kept meaning to do it and keep forgetting. I'm not entirely happy with the radio. I had it looking good until it dried and cracked out. It works though and I'm happy with the overall results.

Yes! I really like what you've done with the Effect using power ups.
The radio looks awesome, what did you make it with?
Oh , 12 speed, he's gonna be a hoot to play! Get those power ups quick!

I made the radio out of some stuff called "paper clay". It works really well. Easy to use and dries hard enough for you to paint and mess with. The only down side is the cracking you'll get. I found it at Michaels for around $5 a brick. I've used it for all kinds of custom work I've done from filling in cracks, to filling in cavities of figures so that I can install striking mechanisms.
It what I used on Godzilla's spike on back of his head. There was originally nothing there, but I had to make the spike to cover up the end of the launcher I installed.
I wanted to make him fast. I probably made him a little to fast, but oh well. I feel a scout should move faster than the other figures.
