Today I got a bunch of parts from the 1992 GIJoe Headquarters I needed to build upon my Shadowloo Headquarters to make a Cobra Battlefield Fortress.

Because y'see, when Hasbro issued the Shadaloo Fortress, they didn't include ALL the parts from the original tooling. The front perimiter, rear maintenance bay, top gunner's nest, guard rails, all guns/missile launchers beyond the double-barrelled one, etc. were all left out.

Now I've got pretty much everything I need to have the fortress look whole. I'm just missing the gunner's nest, one piece of guard railing and the fuel nozzle and accompanying hose.
Given it's taken me over two years just getting the initial pieces I needed... I'm in for a long wait.
