I apologize for the crappy picture. I could do a lot better with more time.
TNHQ is sending a team, the CC AT Commander along with his jungle expert (pulling out his machete) and a member of the military division an Army SAW gunner (for extra firepower) to help out with the rescue.
He (and the commander) are the CC versions of the AT Rescue the Pygmy Gorilla.
I added an olive drab T-shirt to the AA version. I can't remember where I got the black uni for the commander. It was what, 20 years ago? Man, I can't believe they are that old. Time goes by faster as you get older. I think he looks better with a shirt, as the figures came without one. And I re-arranged his "shoulder holster." I put the machete and sheath on the opposite side, so his pistol was in a better position for him to reach.
The holster is actually from a MAM figure made a few years earlier, a rock climber. Sorry, didn't mean to give you so much info.

No such thing as too much info! That's why most of us are here: we're in to the minutiƦ!

Thanks Dave!
Re-reading my post, what I meant to say was that the shoulder holster was originally made for a MAM figure. Hasbro re-purposed it for the pygmy gorilla AT set they made a few years later.

Thanks Dal.
The Classic Collection Adventure Team figures all have the same sculpt, just flocked in different colors. Much like the originals.
