G.I. Joe Classified One-A-Day Beamish-Style Figure Poll - #185 - Kamakura (Sigma 6)

Even though I really liked Kamakura in the S6 line, if this design was ever translated to Classifies I think it would have to be a different character.
 
I have a feeling this will be an easy week for me, because I fucking hate Sigma 6 so much and that Kamakura is a perfect example of why.
 
Damn, spend one weekend waging war on volunteer rose bushes and you miss everything.
POC Cyber-Viper- maybe? Depends on how it turned out.
POC Cobra Commander- the deepest no.
Lt. Stone- Yes please, especially if he comes out anywhere as slick as that custom.
S6 Trooper- probably not on it's own, but as extra parts a la Budo for Lt. Stone I'd be down.
Kamikura- can't say I hate the yellow. Kamikura was a nice find at Ross for $8, but that's about as much enthusiasm as I have for the character. Naw.

The appeal of S6 to me was the play system, which Classified would have to drop.

The toy line was pretty great in my opinion. I especially liked the packaging as a crate idea. The designs were mostly good, it probably just suffered from bad timing and scale. It just didn't seem to catch on with both kids and collectors. The show was good as well, but not in my top 3 of Joe media (shows), and not in my top 5 of Joe media (all).
 
I couldn’t get behind the SigmaSix designs at the time because the design “style” was too unserious for my taste, I’m generally not a fan of cartoony, “anime” styles for action/adventure properties (simply cannot generate interest in watching those Dragonballs shows for that reason), and also the scale was not for me. Also a more traditional Joe toy line was running at that time, so I was not starving for Joe product.
I really want to see how Classified can take some of those designs and pull the “spandex and holes” out of them.
