Still, I will be ordering hands, feet, weapons, and more from them to upgrade my figs.

That is a good mold. From what I can tell, Hasbro crushed it by using the tooling from POC Snake Eyes in a lot of figures.

That Duke is definitely old school green shirt material. But WOW - I didn't even know that Beachhead existed. With head swaps, he may be the perfect modern green shirt.

D'oh! That's not good! And here I was just saying no to them because of aesthetics.
Thanks for the responses, all! If you have any other suggestions, please let me know.
Have fun!

Holy crap! There were five troop builders in 1985 - what am I getting myself into!?!
