honestly I'm not as thrilled about this one as some are, but the sad thing is, to maintain my completist-single-carded MOC collection, I'll have to pick this up on the secondary market for ridiculous prices. It's not even a 25A articulated figure!

over at hisstank http://www.hisstank.com/gi-joe-news/25t ... ages-7352/ That jacket is really going to interfere with movement . . . looks good though. I'm assuming that's the variant since it has the coat of arms on it, which works for me, since I think it looks awkward, and now I won't have to track one down. |

I wouldn't mind getting it, but Hasbro is too busy trying to setup the figure so that scalper can make money. Hasbro apparently doesn't really want to make much. I just wish they'd make these exclusives where everyone could easily get a version that wanted it, then they could have exclusive packaging that's hard to get. We'd all get one then, and the scalpers can fight over cardboard. |

Crappy looking figure, in no small part do the the fact that that logo looks awful. Still whatever figure that it's based on would make a perfect DR. Venom. - R |

I am not too conserned with this figure really, he's a nice variant and if he had normal retail distribution I would buy him, but he isn't worth all the trouble IMO. Still his knees kind of look like an Indy figure's (IN paticular, indy himeself) and it makes me think that at least the legs were borrowed from that line. Still in the figure's defence, what need does CC have to side kick. Really if you were going to limit the figure's articulation that way, it would make sence on this character (vs Snake Eyes or someone with a martial arts background). |

That kind of makes the hip joints moot anyway. This figure's not quite what I was expecting. I thought he'd be in an actual business suit. As it is, I'm glad I don't have to try tracking one down. |

Yeah, I was wondering about that. Is that supposed to be a movie look? Cuz that head looks a little like the Third Rock kid. |

Aw man, I was under the impression that it was a normal sports coat, not some weird long European thing. I don't like it as much as I thought I did now. |

That's probably because this IS an Indy figure. Hasbro stated as much in the latest Q&A. I forget which site had the question and answer but I know I read it and it made my heart sink. I was really hoping this would be a new sculpt that would see some use in the movie line but alas that is not to be. I'll just be getting one of each to keep MOC. I had planned to get a few extras for fodder but not if they have that crappy T-crotch articulation. So disappointing...

Does it matter that he has a t-crotch? The jacket would restrict it anyway. |

I've been thinking about it, and I bet that's the body Hasbro is using for Toht. So I guess I'm going to have to go back to hoping that they give us a 25th style suit body before too long. |
