Would have preferred more of a tan ochre color with an olive green and either a silver mask or tinted clear.... but then that would have been reasonable.

I mean for a toxic cleanup guy he's a little more normally-colored than the other bright blue guy. At least he pairs well with Airtight. That's what I like about him. Shame about the covered head… that means it'll take another fucking 4 days wasted on that reveal. :rolleyes:

And he'll just look like Luigi.

I think the only disappointing thing (besides not seeing the head) is that the helmet isn't translucent to show his face through it. Other than that, I think they did a great job pulling off the original. I think he's been pushed to the front of the line due to the fact that he at least would work well with Airtight. I don't mind the colors on a environmental containment suit. They're always ridiculous colors.

I'm sure will waste a reveal on his head instead of just fucking showing it now.

I'm one of those who don't like the neon's as uniform paint.
Maybe with more darker paint..a bit more "realistic" colours, could save the set.
But honestly I don't expect something good out of this.

I might be wrong, but I suspect a lot of discounted sets in the future...

I just wonder...if there will be so much discounts - what they gonna do next?

I love this figure, it's more or less what was expected. The only thing I don't like is that the hood does not fit tightly. There is a gap between the should and hood. That's not very air tight.

Pretty faithful to the original (which I'm ashamed to say I own). The ARAH figures head sculpt screamed "I have no friends, so I spend my weekends beating my dick to deviant lifestyle pornography", so I'm hoping the Club changes that for the better.

Ohhhh yeaaaah.

Damn, now I hope they do make him look like a registered offender. We'll finally have the right head sculpt to go with the A-Team van!

There are always going to be those of us who feel there's no point in updating the figure style for the better if you're just going to use the eyesore colors. If ARAH style is flawed enough that it has to updated, then why does it have to use the exact colors? They could improve the colors and many people will still love them as well as expanding the customer base.

They could have done a military NBC/CBRN suit as opposed to a neon HAZMAT suit, but fuck doing anything redeeming with the Eco Warriors concept.



Cant figure out how to make it visible..aanyway - Clean Sweep's mem for sure )))))))

Yeah, that does look pretty bad...maybe it just needs to pressed on better.

I'm pretty sure he owned a windowless van too.

Hmmm...that pic makes me wonder why the club went so bananas with the green paint aps...

Also, Hasbro has a tendency of making bad product preview images. They always have too much light and exaggerate the color intensity.
