How stupid that he's holding that dumbass bomb. Not bad, I guess. At least it makes sense that it's the same colors as the other Toxo-Viper instead of different colors like the vintage figure. Surprised they didn't bother weathering it or having some Compound-Z splatter effects on it, though. They're so random with the detail on their paint apps.
This is what I wanted to use earlier upon viewing the new reveal...
that coffee smiley is fantastic. Gotta save that one for later.
The must've all been doing the Hokie Pokie and been on “you put yer left side in†next to an exploding Z canister/bomb...that's the only explanation
I like this figure. Of course I do, it's a zombie. Some paint and I think it will look fabulous. Sucks that it is in the Joecon set.
Well, we all have parts for the recipe and I believe there are a few toxo zombie heads floating around at various 3rd part sites.
Yeah, SWG has the vintage head (as do I) and AF has their own sculpt. I plan to get the AF one when I order Darkseid's head. Just need to figure out a few more heads to add to the order to make shipping worth it.
Oh hey, full 12" preview is up today! SO AWESOME.*

Yeah, that gives them, what another week minimum? At this point, they're going to be holding open registration in person AT the goddamn Convention. 
Footloose was more Tom Selleck-like. This one looks like an old actor, I just can't bring to mind which.
I'm thinking of having him greying once I've secured one from the casting syndicate.

Hah. They've stretched the fucking registration yet another week by revealing THIS today:
I like the head
Nope, still missing the Repulsor & Dawg set, which is actually the one I'm the most anxious to see. I haven't loved their new characters from the last 2 years, but they're at least interesting that they're new characters. Plus, I've always kind of liked Joes with pets, as dumb as it is.
I'm expecting him to be crazy fucking neon with a mutant dog, but I could be wrong. I'm hoping he's more normal looking, but I highly doubt it.

… maaaaybe? I'm thinking more… "mutant-y" if that makes sense. I honestly have no clue, which is why I'm remotely interested in seeing it, unlike most of the other reveals. Lab Rats were a letdown, as was Outback. All the others are pretty much their vintage look, more or less.
I'll be really happy if he has a new head sculpt and blown away if he also has new webgear or some other new accessory, but I'm thinking it'll just be a damned dog and reused tooling for the guy. Wouldn't surprise me to see them reuse the collar/chain from the SDCC Ravage.
Just playing a guessing game, I'm wondering if he'll use any parts from the Vault figures, maybe that Jason-looking guy with Thrasher's webgear? Maybe using POC Viper armpads since he's a dog handler? I don't know, really, I just wish they'd fucking show him and end his month-long game of charades.
