Storm Commando figure?; Where did the colour scheme come from?

Just wondering where the colour scheme for the Shadow Scout or Storm Commando action figure came from. The figures armour is of course black, but the cumberbund is grey with black pockets and cod piece and a cross stitch front. The flight suit is also grey, not black. Is there any reference material to support these colours other than the picture on the packet, or are they an action figure only thing?

All current color schemes proposed for this costume were garnered from existing licenced LFL artwork. This doesn't mean the action figure is wrong, but if it supports the existing art, it may qualify. I'm willing to look at your proposal and compare it to the CRL standard that was submitted to the Legion Membership Officer if you can post some pics. Kev Det Lead

It also includes my outfit, based on the figure version. Thanks for your reply, i'll look forward to hearing from you. I couldnt believe how hard it is to get reference pics for this one.

The Legion usually frowns upon the Hasbro figures as references, but it can be worked. I think with that photo, it can and will be approved. Kev

I'll be the first to let you know when I hear something back. I don't feel it will be a hard thing to pass, I just have to modify our current Storm Commando CRL (and the Det members need to approve it for release).
