Title: Custom Smugglers and Droid
Post by: no boom boom soul brother on October 15, 2007, 03:27 AM

  I've always seen these two figures as belonging more to the Star Wars universe as opposed to the GI Joe world.  The "make-believe" backstory for the two characters is that they are ex-soldiers, deserters who ran away from the military to find a better life.  They are primarily smugglers, but sometimes their activities border on mercenary work when money is low.  Mercer carries a regular energy pistol, a knockoff of the Westar 34 blaster while Taurus' sidearm is a "chain revolver", a slugthrower that uses a flexible metallic ringlet clip that holds bullets, which loads into the gun in a "break-top" fashion.  They run around the galaxy in their broken down CR-12 Light Freighter, the "Blackwater Bay".  I'll post pictures of that within a few days.  This first picture is of Captain Septimus Mercer:(http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-9/1280532/IMG_1595.JPG)  This second photo is of First Mate Finyan Taurus:(http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-9/1280532/IMG_1830.JPG)  Here is their Droid:(http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-9/1280532/IMG_1658.JPG)  Here is Mercer's holstered weapon:(http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-9/1280532/IMG_1559.JPG)  Here is Taurus' holstered "chain revolver", and another showing him brandishing it.(http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-9/1280532/IMG_1841.JPG) (http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-9/1280532/IMG_1844.JPG) The rest of the photos are here:  (http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-9/1280532/IMG_1560.JPG)(http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-9/1280532/IMG_1566.JPG)(http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-9/1280532/IMG_1564.JPG)(http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-9/1280532/IMG_1567.JPG)(http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-9/1280532/IMG_1569.JPG)(http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-9/1280532/IMG_1563.JPG)(http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-9/1280532/IMG_1723.JPG)[img][http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-9/1280532/IMG_1725.JPG/img]

  Oh, this last one didn't seem to come out.  It really shows the two characters' height differences.(http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-9/1280532/IMG_1725.JPG)
