THAT is what they should have done. Changed the colors to match the Night Creeper's.
Then you'd have more complaints about colors not matching the original. I'm still surprised how heated the Sperahead orange/brown debate got.

Would've made too much sense.
Also, I always hated the silly blindfolded ninja cliché. The cartoon one at least had a unique look, albeit a silly one.
I think everyone would've preferred that, but I'd still take Rex's recolor over the purple monstrosity they're doing.
They really should just show us Cadet Tittyballs.....I mean Bombstrike.

I think NCL would've looked a lot better like this:
Hell, even I don't know why I'm worked up over the choice. Christ, I own a damn v.2 NCL, for crying out loud.
I dunno, it just seems an odd choice to have made. Like choosing to do pink Flak Viper instead of blue Flak Viper, or gray and green Firefly over black and green Firefly.
Like, Shadow Ninja Snake Eyes over Ninja Force Snake Eyes.
I think they'll end up using the Night Force LJ body. I wouldn't be surprised if they used Renegades Scarlett either.
Will the NF Lady Jaye mold be available, since the 50th Lady Jaye will also be using it?
Nothing particularly unexpected here:
Too many paint apps on the pants.
Looks like they choose V2 as a cost saving measure. The extra paint app for the stripes costs money. Probably the same reason they didn't paint a skull cap on him. A lot of club members seem to prefer the orange/black color scheme, but they may not realize the pants wouldn't have the stripes.
Will the NF Lady Jaye mold be available, since the 50th Lady Jaye will also be using it? That makes me wonder which arms are going to be used. I'm guessing it will be Renegades Scarlett torso with LJ v6 or Helix arms. The ROC Covergirl arms are probably too plain.
Considering Bombstrike was more or less wearing something along the lines of a class 3 quarter-sleeve undershirt, I don't think the problem with RoC CG's arms will be them being too plain.
Resolute Scarlett has mid-forearm high gloves, they wouldn't have worked any way you slice it.
Bombstrike's gloves are just short of the middle of her forearms.

Much longer than than either Lady Jaye gloves.
