Hey All,

Just wanted to share with everyone a wonderful site which I have been shopping with for the past year or so, as they are a must for people looking for different minfigure parts and accesories!

These are the guys whom helped me get the equipment to build the SHIELD tactical teams you can see below, so they are definitely worth a visit. Will also be interested to see if anyone else on the forums has used their site, and if so, your experience with them!

Hope you find it useful!

SHIELD Strike Team

Firestar is a great site for custom stuff. I would recommend however if you are looking for Official TLG figs or accessories, Bricklink is far less expensive.

That looks like a nice team assembly you have there, I would try and upgrade their legs when you can though, little bit vanilla. There are some good options that you could use if you want to stay with black.

These knee pad legs could be nice

Thank you for the suggestion :) Got a more up-to-date photo here where they have SI-Dan Kneepads and Tactical Belts :)

Splendid!

Plenty of black there!

 

I did some swat stuff a while back in 2013 and noticed that in a lot of pics the guys are in blue aswell. Guess its a state/county thing.

 

A little bit of extra colour can do wonders to give your figs some extra interest, the grey gloves add a little something on yours for sure.

I used the TT arm patches and experimented with the legs to see how they looked. The standard legs are definitely a bit boring on the middle guy. The swimming cap makes a good balaclava top if you are doing insurgents or bad guys.

Also teams also have different rigs depending on their team role I believe. My favourite in my team was the shield guy.
