holy frack....i can't believe i got home from work....saw this news post....read 42 pages of people hating (and a couple knights fighting the good fight)....i want that hour of my life back!!!
this figure is the combat heroes version of CC....the "clear hockey mask, traumaville villian" version i knew he would be.
i read some of the pro-neo-CC posts that said i should just bend over and take this **** up my *** without lube because there was that CC in battle armor.......but that figure only appeared once. there were a couple repaints of that mold over the years, but it is no where near as iconic as the HOOD or the CHROME MASK.
even in the much fan hated S6....CC wore a HOOD or a CHROME MASK.
EVERY F**KING version of CC had him in one of those 2 versions.
there's a lot of talk of "re-inventing" the visual look of CC but.........if this villian has become so iconic for over 2 f**king decades visually (no matter how much his "origin" has changed over those close to 30 years............). CC is a cultural icon that people from 2 or 3 generations know and recognise. and taking that image to just "update" it to hollywood standards is just cheap and lame and not respecting or even knowing your source material!
oh.....and i will buy one of these peg warming CC figures just so i can throw it on a bonfire.
