Yeah, I saw on HT that someone posted they were posting them separate. How fucking petty, just show the final figure! Also, surprise! The registration software still ain't ready. :rolleyes:

It looks… Okay. Not digging that giant googly eye, though.

I dig the eye being all bugged out and uncovered.. it gives it a resident evil feel. I don't know about all the Compound-Z blue. I think a little is okay, but that's excessive.

Enh, I'll get it when it is cast.

I will regardless, because I'll paint a better version. The only animal painted remotely well was the ROC Polly and the 25th Mutt. All the rest make me wonder if they've ever seen an animal.

Looks like it's a Nickelodeon-Slip-N-Slide-Ouchie dog or something with all that splashed blue.

Looks like a pug...I hate pugs...they are ugly...that's a fact.

I've honestly used his default one in a text conversation. They didn't understand it.

Haha, what forum?

I actually like it, the disclaimer at the bottom has me worried though. Does Iceberg ring a bell?

Might be alright with a repaint. It's no Resident Evil zombie dog, but it's better than no reanimated corpse dog at all.

There's speculation that Repulsor will actually be modeled after the '91 Sludge Viper.

Since it's ok to use on "official" GI Joe figures...I figured it would be good enough for my customs since i'm no good at painting eyes. Picked up a few of those craft wiggle eyes and updated my Harry Dresden custom.

Animals are just a waste to me anyway. They are always treated like accessories and not figures which means they are usually statues. Somtimes we're lucky and an animal might have a hinge or something, but I want an animal with a ball joint in each shoulder, tail, and head. Until then, no thanks to animals.

You know, that's the EXACT helmet I feared they'd use if they attempted a Sludge-Viper 3-pack. And now that means there's probably not going to be a SV 3-pack. So it's just a fucking Cesspool with a different head? More or less?

You do realize that they could've given both him AND Outback new heads and scrapped that stupid fucking dog, right?

Damn, HT called it. It IS a Sludge Viper.

LAME!

Oh, head underneath is kinda visible.

"Saves me money" psh!

Do you remember the endless debate over at HT about not buying shit just to buy it "not actually saving you money"? I can't remember who always got into that, I was thinking gunslingercbr or someone else.

Goes along with the rest of the shitty set...at least he wasn't some uber badass motherfucker that everyone would end up wanting so you don't feel like you spent $400 on one figure.
