Glenda
: I've been following this thread for too long. I *knew* the old Scarlett would get recycled here, and it really clicks.
Selkirk
: Don't know him, but he looks good.
Avalanche:
Man-o-man. I was definitely looking forward to the BF2000 guys the most since they're one of the two sets of figures that I remember distinctly *not* liking when I was little (the other being the Renegades). Another great update.
Caras
: I'm completely digging this design. His uniform translated nicely, and the conversion of the half jacket into a vest was a smart swap. If the Joes ever need to run anything with Jack Bauer involved, I guess they could send him.
On the note of name changes, I had hoped you would've changed Sokerk's to something else when I saw the organizational chart. I associate the name too much with Outback. It's like having a Joe named Hauser or Hinton. I'm sure it can't be avoided in some cases, but some names are so unique that their usage stands out more than a codename like Jonesy does.
As for Faces, it does sound a bit like a scatological joke, but it *does* immediately tell you what he does. He's a fairly well known later character and although the new name has meaning behind it, I think that there are enough face* words and phrases in the English language that something more along the lines of his original name could have been used. For example, "Faceless" has the same number of syllables and ending sound as the original name, avoids the poop joke, and drives home the intel/undercover aspect a bit better, IMO.
Either way, fantastic updates all around.
