I like it… I'd like to see a side-by side with the Resolute head, just to see which is better. Waaay better than the 25th sculpt.

Really great work. I like that head a lot, and you did an excellent job with your paint apps. I really like this version of Roadblock... just classic. He's one of my very favorite characters: the ONLY Mississippian on the whole Joe Team.


Here are 2 versions of Roadblock that Marine_Deadpool did for me... we modified the new Roadblock from the ROC Wal-Mart Exclusive pack. Just thought you might be interested in seeing it. The other is the 25th version of v2 Roadblock. Anyway, hope you like them. I certainly enjoyed yours.

Thanks! I appreciate it!

Not a problem. About to spend some time with the misses and then I'll post some comparison pics.

definate improvment...though i still prefer the BnB head with the angry face

I like the BnB head a lot too, but I already had this one and have been meaning to paint it up for awhile now as the 25th figure needed some help.

Thanks, Oliver! Marine_Deadpool does the best camo paint apps out of any other customizer I've ever seen attempt it. I certainly do like the ones he fixed up for you.

Damn son, that looks fantastic. I'd seen that head a few times before, but not painted up like that. You've gotten pretty damned good at eyes lately. It looks factory as hell!

Honestly, a new head is all that V1 25th RB needs, and those are photos to prove it. Did you repaint the camo on him too? Something looks different on him, besides just the head. I really loved the Resolute Roadblock, but the head sculpt has always appeared kind of "Wolfman" to me. And I do like the BnB head with the grimace, but this one's stellar.

Yeah, I'm really happy w/this sculpt (it looks just like the card art to me) and w/how the eyes turned out.

I didn't do anything else to the figure other than give it Resolute RB's gun. I am thinking about adding something to his right thigh (knife like the OG, or a gun and holster) as what's there right now doesn't resemble anything and looks pretty stupid to me. What are your thoughts?

Just getting around to this... No idea, you mean that weird blank plate? WTF was that for? Did they intend to glue something to it, and just cut it due to budget, or said "fuck it"?

Yeah, add a knife or ammo or something. Hell, anything.

Haha... Yeah, I'll definitely add something to it. I've thought about swapping his legs out for some different ones, but not sure which ones.

I personally hate the fact that neither Roadblock or Bazooka could kneel properly, considering their primary specialty. Destro it doesn't matter so much, but a guy named Bazooka and a heavy machine gunner? Sigh.

Yeah, Hasbro screwed us over there. Never really understood why they couldn't give them double-jointed knees.
