Intresting 1 18 GI Joe find

As on my search for new heads for the IJ figures, I came across a GI Joe figure that is a US Machine gunner sporting a German MG-42 machine gun. The gun may be molded in green, but can be painted
So I picked up a couple of these guys for the heads and the MG-42s
Now after collecting a bunch of GI Joe figures for their weapons and heads to use as transplants into the IJ figures, I need to figure out what to do with all the headless bodies

Build a Gallows in your Compound! Attach a round object in a bag and attach it to the headless figures! 'Hang'm High'!
No charge!

Ah, they'd look better if you sawed off that "peg" and colored/painted in some red around the neck area
I could try to do something with putting the Col.'s head on or the russian soldiers head on or even the German soldiers head those headless bodies
I may come up with something ... different

What?! Female Imperial officers?
BLASPHEMY.
Only guys 45+ with sweet widow's peaks and high cheek bones make it to be an officer!

Yeah, that would be Rock N' Roll, our friendly bass playing machine gunner.
The details on his MG42 are great, but it's a tad bit over sized. Well, not a tad bit...it's really over sized.
Stalker comes with an MP40, but it's a bit big, too.

My guess would b the MG wiht the GIjoe figure is supposed to be the MG3, the modern German Army mg which resembles the old MG42. Here is some info:
