DeSade
Paine Brother

Appearances - GI Joe #95

Parts Used - Red Star head, Salvo Torso, Star Brigade Payload arms, 1983 Gung Ho waist, 1986 Dial Tone legs, 1991 Snake-Eyes sword

DeSade was the last of the three Paine brother I completed.  I had the darndest time finding a head that looked even remotely similar to him.  I finally gave up and settled on Red Star's.  After all, you can't have just two Paine brothers.   Anyhoo, the only reason I chose Red Star is because both he and DeSade are rather ugly.  Beyond that, they don't have any real similarities.  An interesting sidenote: even though Snake-Eyes made his new costume from the three Paine brothers, unlike the other two, I didn't use any 1989 Snake Eyes parts on DeSade.  The parts I did use more closely resembled the artwork for him in the comic.
