Both of those solutions sound great! I’m looking forward to seeing pics of your improved versions. I suppose if the improved Falcon looked good enough I might consider picking up one on clearance and a Dusty (maybe the TF version, since I’m sure those will be on clearance in the not too distant...

So I opened up the Cover Girl fig this evening. All in all, a definite meh. I was hoping maybe she'd be better in person than what I had seen in pics, but she's very plain looking for a "used to be a fashion model." I'd place her below LJ, Scarlett, Baroness (WM retro and SE versions) and Zarana...

So my Cover Girl showed up unexpectedly apparently yesterday. I’ll say that I’m not a fan of the “no plastic” box. I haven’t opened it yet. Let’s hope for good quality control...

Been there, done that...

I'm curious. Is the crimson color consistent with the regular line JoeClass figure? I've heard that the retro CG has a different base red color.

Lol, yeah. Friendly fire must be a serious concern on those battlefields and in the skies above.

Outrageous!!!

The figs look well done, but I have zero interest in that Range Viper nor the limey. I had neither in the past and feel like they came along well after the line had peaked out and was in serious decline. They are odd choices for the JoeClass line in my opinion, but whatever, we’re getting Hawk...

As for the reveals: I am really looking forward to seeing Mutt/Junkyard. They'll be a must, unless they botch them somehow. I have no use for Quick Kick or Big Boa, and I mean none. Tunnel Rat and Low-Light both look pretty awesome in the renders so I'll likely be getting those down the road. I...

I just saw that they also dropped the PO's for Snow Job and the Valkyries(?). I'd like to pick up a SJ, as he's a sentimental favorite, but I don't know where I'd display him (maybe in his own area, separate from the non-arctic team members) and I don't think I'll be joining Pulse or paying...

So some new pre-orders dropped today. I went ahead and got my PO in for Scrap Iron (Yay, my first deeelux! At least I had an Amazon giftcard that brought him down to regular fig price) and Rock'n'Roll. I passed on Shippy, Torpedo (I couldn't find a place for either in my land based team theme)...

Those range from awesome to EPIC!

I’m definitely looking forward to his release. He and Firefly were two of my early favorites as a kid.

Finally got to see retro Gung Ho and Destro in the wild at my local Wallyworld. Destro is marginally better than v.1, but not worth an extra $25 to upgrade him. Gung Ho, well I don’t really have nostalgia for the original teal version, and he is very true to that, so I left him for someone who...

Yep, he's got a tiny dot of flesh colored paint on his collar (that I could probably exacto off if I really wanted to), but that's it. His mustache and other paint are pretty good. Mine is the only one I've seen in person, so I can't really judge against others, but maybe I finally won the...

That's a shame about the shoddy paint work. I lucked out and got a pretty good version of both Recondo and Bazooka. I did have to pick through a number of not great versions of the PP Viper to get a pretty good one.

Anything more appealing pop up with this abomination?

I've put together a hybrid from Alpha Commando SE (goggled of course) with the original single SE's sword and, I think, his backpack. He's got the UMP45 looking submachine gun from AC SE, which is perfect for me since that's very similar to what my v.2 SE ran with (Heavy Duty's submachine gun)...

Lol, that's about how I expected you to feel about it. It hurts my eyes, and I've generally become more tolerant to the TF schemes with some of the figs. Glad it's getting to somebody who actually wants it and not just ending up in the spare parts bin. I'm pretty much set now until the next...

I was able to get back to the office on Friday evening with enough time to open up the figs and display them with Outback. They make a decent little mustachioed (+ bearded for OB) fire team, not as whacky as I was concerned they might be. I would like to get Bazooka a secondary weapon and maybe...
