FILE NAME

Black Shadow is one of the most feared operatives ever fielded by the Red Shadows. His true identity is unknown, and all records linking him to any nation, unit, or intelligence service have been deliberately erased.

BACKGROUND

Black Shadow was recruited into the Red Shadows after a series of classified black-ops missions demonstrated his absolute loyalty, tactical brilliance, and total disregard for personal safety. He operates independently or as the spearhead of Red Shadows strike teams, specialising in infiltration, sabotage, and sudden overwhelming firepower.

Unlike most Red Shadows troops, Black Shadow is authorized to select his own equipment and appearance, allowing him to adapt quickly to mission parameters. His use of interchangeable disguises and combat roles has led to conflicting reports about his true face and rank within the organisation.

PERSONALITY PROFILE

Cold, disciplined, and utterly ruthless, Black Shadow believes fear is the most effective weapon on the battlefield. He speaks rarely and follows orders with mechanical precision—but intelligence reports suggest he is far more calculating than his superiors realize.

WEAPONS

• Standard Red Shadows Rifle
• Shoulder-fired Bazooka

QUALIFICATIONS

Black Shadow is trained in close-quarters combat, heavy weapons deployment, and psychological warfare. His presence alone has caused multiple Action Force units to abort missions.

Display Stand Information

Unfortunately, there are currently no peg stands on the market that fit these figures, as the foot hole is smaller than standard vintage peg sizes.

However, we do offer an alternative solution — figure support stands that hold the figure securely without using the foot peg. These are ideal for display and are available here: 🔗 Support Stands
