Parkour is the art of getting from A to B as fast as possible, assuming a chase.

Freerunning is all the flippin' and jumpin' and leapin' and rollin'.

People use the two terms interchangeably, but there are distinct differences.

The word "Parkour" came from the French "le parcours" - typical French, never letting obstacles get in their way of beating a hasty retreat. :D

So I was one of those guys....and picked up a Lady Jaye from the eBay seller.

I was expecting her to be tossed in a bag, missing some accessories. She came fully carded. I was quite surprised. The detail paint on the SCAR and HK (I think it is that...the rifle that came with Lifeline?) is phenomenal. I could have done with about four or five less accessories though...including that stupid javelin thing. That's WAY too ARAH for my liking.

I'll try to have some pics up later on...but I've been sicker than a dog these days. Time to be put down.

Her other one is an M4/M203 combo. Her H&K MP7 doesn't have any paint at all.

I'm getting one, as that buck is good and I'm thinking she'll convert well to flight crew for the Bbi OH-58D

Yeah, about all I've found them useful for are as suppresor donor.

No, she doesn't come with a sidearm.


The pack is nice, but tiny. It's not a back peg either. Has working straps...that are also tiny.

Oh, and the head sculpt isn't THAT bad really. Sure it's a bit walleyed, but that's par for the course at times. It actually reminds me of my wife's likeness.

For me, it wasn't so much that it was bad on its own, as it looks nothing like Palicki. But I understand why they didn't get it close, if you look at most of their actor likenesses. They often are more charicture than portrait, and Palicki has this thing with her jowls that if you don't get it right, she'll look like Alfred Hitchcock with a ponytail.

Yeah, the 25th LJ pack is tiny.
Factory head paint is busted, but that's par for the course. I'm sure one of those allstar head repainters will do an bang-up job on it.

The apps on the torso are pretty good. The head sculpt itself isn't that bad, but neither was the sculpt for Renegades Scarlett. It's just those wonky ass eyes! Dear God, can they not paint a Joe female's eyes anymore?

Oh my god, a version of Lady Jay that has swivel wrists. I guess I'll be doing a head-swap sometime next year! I am going to miss seeing dat cleavage though, like a lot. I may just steal the lower arms and hands from this new figure, and repaint them a matching flesh tone (if I wasn't lazy and unskilled).

I'm thinking of just tapping the 25th LJ arms and putting the new hands on them.

Ninja Knights in tights will almost always get me NOT to buy something.

I'm as alergic to them as most Joe collectors are to tactical colors and nomenclature.

I believe I still have one of those set aside for you, mister...

You should give me the set. I don't have a LJ with swivel wrists, or an old fashioned Hawk. KT will just ritualistically burn it for not being tacticool enough for his tastes.

I'll have to check to be sure when I get stateside, but I remember setting her aside for you a while back. So, unless somebody else asked for her, she should still be there.
