Ash's background is that he's a member of Black Squadron Security (hence the gear and armour) but is sympathetic to the Breakers and may take their side (hence the absence of Black Squadron Security logo on his armour.
This is a great figure on multiple levels. First up the sculpting is great with some great depth and texture. The gear is not only suitable for Broken Contract but potentially many other near future games as well (he'll be the latest addition to my Peacekeepers for This Is Not A Test). And he comes with multiple arms and heads so he can be assembled in various configurations. In addition to the 'basic' model I assembled one with the riot helmet and taser-rifle.
A funny thought occurred to me while taking pictures tonight. My friend Darren asked me a few posts ago to start including pictures of the backs of some of my miniatures. For the most part I've never thought that was really necessary but this time out I'm including one. For some reason the only scene that really sticks with me from Iron Man 3 is when Tony Stark is tied to a bed frame in a basement/dungeon and while insulting his captors he refers to one of them as "Pony-tail-express". Painted my Ash Walker figure and it all came flooding back....
Alright, now maybe I'm painting cowboys...or maybe I'm not.
