Custom GI Joe Classified “Zap” Action Figure

[@19delta32]

I think that's the Carl Gustav rocket launcher, it's supposed to replace the AT-4 Rocket launcher I think.

[@ryantorney5581]

Carl G seems like the right assumption. It’s an 84mm with a Venturi locked breach. Good call!

[@westittle8538]

Also the Carl Gustav is a 8.4mm recoiless rifle. Not a rocket launcher.

[@ryantorney5581]

@@westittle8538 you totally nailed it. I’m ashamed to say I wasn’t really paying the right attention. I was kinda cheering to see someone else electing it as the Carl G. I’ve been out a bit too long I guess. I handled the thing enough in my earlier days, I shouldn’t have made that description error. I was too quick to validate the vote, lol.

[@modelandtoyworkshop]

That turned out great! I wish that Grunt body would have been on the market when I did my Zap custom.

[@Actionfigurejunky]

Thanks man! I’ll bet! But I’ll bet Urs is still legit.

[@ryantorney5581]

Hey man! Do I ever love your stuff! Especially when you hit these OG line Names. I am focusing on doing my own ( really amateur) attempts at Zap, Short Fuze and Cutter ( yup, I’m scratch building a Hovercraft together). You are way cleaner with your product then mine seem to be turning out, lol. But thank you for being so inspiring with your work and for explaining your approach to these. I am a Cdn Vet, so I will chime in on the weapon. We call it the “Carl G” up here. Hope you don’t mind that I shout out your channel someday in the near future! Thanks again! Thanks to Wes for correcting my mistakes. Edited.

[@Actionfigurejunky]

Awesome dude! I appreciate it! Please shout out all U want! Carl G, huh? That’s cool! I bet Ur customs are kick ass!

[@ryantorney5581]

@@Actionfigurejunky lol, well, no….they don’t….not yet. But I am learning a ton watching vids like yours and figuring it all out. So thanks so much for that! What a fun spin on collecting Joes as a model builder!

[@Toy_Matrix]

Good eye. Looks amazing. 💪

[@Actionfigurejunky]

Thanks a lot!

❤❤❤Bro You are Crushing these 6inch Joints Keep Em Coming!!!❤❤❤

[@Actionfigurejunky]

Thanks a lot! I’ll do my best!

Great custom! Using Grunt as the base figure is very fitting since the original Zap and Grunt used the same head, arms, and legs (Zap’s torso was also Short-Fuze’s). And you did get Zap’s name right, he’s Rafael J. Melendez!

[@Actionfigurejunky]

Thanks a lot dude!

[@campbellruleV1kiwiGI]

Very awesome custom bro I’m super impressed mate

[@Actionfigurejunky]

Much appreciated dude.

[@batandjoefan8108]

Just found your channel. Really enjoy the customs of figures that Hasbro hasn’t produced yet. I’ve made some myself like Hit and Run. If you can figure out a way to make Blowtorch I would appreciate it.

[@Actionfigurejunky]

Dude!!!! I would freaking LOVE to make a Blowtorch. But I bet Hasbro will soon.

[@comicbookbin]

That's quite nice. I made one too but it's ore of a kitbash.

[@Actionfigurejunky]

Thanks dude. That’s cool!

[@curseoffenrir]

“Although most of them date back to childhood” bwahahaha, that was great 😂

[@Actionfigurejunky]

Thanks dude!
