Hey kids,
Im working on a 1986 Roadblock, but I hate his torso sculpt. Just seems 'unfinished' and not very defined.

Any other sculpts that are similar?

ARAH?

What about Effects: http://www.yojoe.com/action/94/effects.shtml
Or Beach-Head v2: http://www.yojoe.com/action/94/beachhead3.shtml
Or Bazooka v3: http://www.yojoe.com/action/93/bazooka3.shtml
Or Mercer v2: http://www.yojoe.com/action/91/mercer2.shtml
Or Capt. Grid-Iron: http://www.yojoe.com/action/90/captgridiron.shtml

I wish Hasbro would make a new version of 86 Roadblock the 25th version was completely lame. I guess odds are good we'll get a vintage Roadblock remake next year with all the Rock action in the spring.

I like the Low-Light idea.

I'm also glad I'm not the only one who thinks that 1986 Roadblock had an "unfinished" look. Heck, the whole figure looked that way. I wasn't sorry that we never saw it again. In my opinion, the 1991 Roadblock was the best of the lot, including a really excellent headsculpt.

Effects sounds like an interesting idea... Also, I can attest to the BS Bazooka and Beach Head's making a great looking Roadblock, however, that Beach Head torso might have the same issues (maybe more so) than the 86 RB. It is rather plain and unfinished looking, even though the proportions are very Roadblockish.

The Low Light idea is an interesting one, and I'd kind of like to see it painted up in colors reminiscent of 86 RB.
