I repurposed this guy as I made Red Mercury V2, and I have another of these coming in the post.

Red Phantom -

Wow....you just never stop with the Red Shadow customs! The latest ones look great...again, good use of that Comic Pack "Pilot" Destro and the ROC Trouble Bubble Viper. You took some pretty bland originals and transformed them into nice customs. Is that skull head on the Phantom from the Joe DVD pack?

Yes mate, it's a cast of Montezuma's skeleton.

Thanks for the kind words!

Code Name: Red Baron
Personal Name: Lothar Bolko Manfred von Richthofen
Action Force Code Number: None
Primary Military Speciality: Fighter pilot
Secondary Military Speciality: Aerospace mechanic
Birthplace: Wroclaw, Poland

The great grandson of the most famous fighter pilot of all time, Lothar von Richthofen always dreamed of surpassing his ancestor's accomplishments. Joining the Luftwaffe at the earliest opportunity, Von Richthofen quickly mastered all aspects of aerospace mechanics, and was constantly customising and updating many designs. As time progressed, Richthoven grew sick of his family name gaining him an easy time. He desperately wanted to prove himself, yet was often passed by by other pilots for fear of his safety, on order of his superiors. Von Richthoven became desperate, and as his behaviour deteriorated, so did his relationships with his fellow pilots. The situation came to a head whilst on a training mission over the Balkan mountains. Von richtoven and top Luftwaffe pilot Jurgen Immelmann were testing different prototype fighters. Furious over Immelmann's constant taunting, Von Ricthoven shot down the Eurofighter and killed Immelmann, and stole the prototype stealth fighter he was piloting.
Panicking at the result of his anger, Von Richthoven flew as far as he could with his remaining fuel, forced to land on what he thought was a disused French airfield. Quickly set upon by a unit of Red Shadows, Richthoven was quickly brought before Baron Ironblood. Already familiar with Von Richthoven's career, Ironblood promised Von Ricthoven all his dreams could come true at the small cost of his devoted service. Von Richtohoven was quick to agree, and submitted himself for genetic upgrading immedietely. Assuming his great grandfather's name, the Red Baron now pilots the Red Hydra (the stealth fighter Von Richthoven stole and later upgraded), and is perhaps the deadliest fighter pilot alive today.


Short bio -

Descendent of the original Red Baron, this pilot pushes the limit of human capabilities in air to air combat. Seemingly unstoppable in any dogfight, and totally obedient to Baron Ironblood.

"The Red Baron is just as infamous and deadly as his great grandfather."

Advanced drivers groomed from the Red Shadows to operate Hyena battle tanks. All are highly skilled and ruthlessly aggressive on the field of battle. Also trained to repair damage to their own vehicles, doubling their usefulness to Baron Ironblood.
