Has anyone else seen this site on Facebook it looks interesting even though I thing most members prefer the ME style Joes. It looks like a Viper with new style head. The creator stated the site was in the start up stage but things are progressing. Heres a link to the site

I would love to see that in Viper colors. Always nice to see the ARAH format.

SOME of us prefer the RAH format.

This looks interesting, but we'll see if anything comes of it.

Hm.

They have my attention .

IF the height is the same as ARAH but with slightly updated construction I'd buy a few. I have very little interest (if any) in ME figures.

They are starting with the original 12'' Joe in 1964 and the video was posted in 2014.

The video creators do need to make that clear though.

IF they were to add some swivel wrists and maybe some type of foot articulation... they'd be sweet..

3D printed blanks with no factory paint doesn't interest me. I'd need some more info on them and their production process before I can get excited about them.

If they are fully painted production figures, they have to be 100% ARAH compatible. If they deviate from that standard, again, no interest.

Why not just get ARAH Vipers? :shifty:

Look, I get it, they want to pay homage and an army builder is a sure fire way to go to get repeat customers. But there is no lack of good Cobra Vipers out there on the secondary market. I get the same could be said for the Black Major's Cobra troopers or BATS, but I'd argue good condition Troopers and complete BATS with all of their attachments aren't cheap. The Viper isn't in that same boat.

I guess I'm asking, if you could have any army builder you wanted, would you go for something that has been done and still exists readily, or would you do something new?

Image says figure 2.
What's their first figure?
Is it another generic figure or is it a character?

Pluv is right, why buy a fake Viper when the original one is still easy to find.

At this point I'm happy with anything in this scale
