Hopefully he comes with another head too.

The Aussie's do that with Vegemite.

We bloody well don't!

Airtight – He looks cool! I like the kind of older looking headsculpt like his animated appearance.
Hydro-Viper – Very well done, but not for me. Also not giving him two grip hands is crazy.
Cobra Overkill – Nah. Not a fan.
Red Dog and Taurus -Yeah not too bad at all. Not my favorite characters ever, but Im always happy to have a few more Non-Americans.
Zanya & Chameleon – She looks cool, but I don't get the Dreadnoks.
Ninja Force Zartan – Nah.
Dawn Moreno - Hell yeah, she looks great! Unmasked head is a bonus!
Cobra La Roya Guard - Nah
Snake Eyes/Viper vs pack - Nah, not for me. A lot of money for stuff Im not really into.
Sundown - Fuckin LOVE it! New character, cool backstory, great details on the figure. Brilliant.
Professor Rottclaw... yeah not too bad. I dunno, Im on the fence. I LIKE it (And love the Dino) but don't love it, and this year will be tight money wise. So Im going to have to see how I feel when it hits I think.

Like others, Zartan is going to be a different character for me. I like the Raptor dude a lot, but not the raptor, so I'll be waiting for clearance with that one.

There is something here for everyone. This line is cooking for the whole family.

Yeah, that's the thing, if you don't like one thing there's almost certainly gonna be something else that absolutely floats your boat so what's the problem? If you don't like it, just skip it. And if you're obsessed with having a complete collection and are mad at having to buy something you don't like, get therapy, it's a you problem, not a line problem.

Anyway, having gone over it all now:

Airtight – Hell yeah, mah boy.
Dawn - Awesome, already ordered her.
Hydro-Viper – Looks great, wish they'd offered a useable left hand though. On the fence as whether I get him or not.
Overkill – Thought the render looked like dogshit but the cyborg face and cannon tits have brought me around a bit. Might pick him up in a sale.
Red Dog and Taurus -Nah, I don't give a fuck about these guys.
Zanya & Chameleon – Fuck yeah, especially loving the flight cap & goggles look. Day one.
Ninja Force Zartan – IDGAF about Ninja Force, dude looks lame like most of those clowns.
Night Creeper (spooky version) - Okay, on the other hand, this I can get with. Give me all the spooky bois.
Cobra La Royal Guard - Ew, nee thanks.
Legacy Special Forces - Looks good but eh, too many shitty dudes doing the skull mask thing these days. Might pick one up dirt cheap off Ali Express a year down the line.
ATV/Flight Pod - I like the colour scheme but nah, I'm good. Plus ew, still using pins in TYOL 2026 like some kind of peasant?
Sundown - Looks amazing, another day one. My only slight quibble is purely a lore one...why do they need a bounty hunter with sixshooters? The Joes have the might of the US military behind them, all this guy brings to the table is looking fucking awesome.
Professor Rotclaw - lol, no. The only dinos I care about are pissy bastards from Cybertron.

Something about Overkill still doesn't sit right with me. It's so accurate to the old one, minus the transparency. But that's not the issue. I think it's the proportions. Or maybe it just looks silly at a higher Fidelity.

Either way, I will get him.

Everything else looks really good. To no one's surprise, it's just the ladies and the robot I want, but it all looks dope

I was actually wondering if you knew and had a visceral reaction to the new Savage Crucible barbarian coming with a seax too.

Not at all. I mean.. I -like- seaxes and I think it's really cool to get one in toy form. It was basically the dominant form of utility knife carried for a few hundred years throughout a large chunk of western Europe. It's actually super under-represented in fantasy and historical fiction.

Yeah, I think the proportions are kind of thrown off by the lime green snake head design against the black (which is a really nice touch.) He looks so much better with the unmasked head to me. I had no interest in him until yesterday.

His vacuum cleaner-like weapon really sucks, though. Bro's going pincher and knife hands for me.

Pincer was mandatory as a kid, mandatory now.
