Gi joe renagades law & order

[frenXy]

Hi fellow joe collectors! Its been a while since my last figure review...

Last week during the Megamall leg of the Hasbro toy fair, we were given a chance to get several new toy releases from Transformers, Marvel & GI Joe.

For me, the chase was to get hold of the 30th GI Joe W3 & W4.
And one of the figures that I was really looking forward to was Law & Order.

The figure is packed in the typical 30th card with the GI Joe renagades artwork.
At the back we get to see the full art, filecard, as well ID sized picts of other figures in the wave.

Heres what we get once opened the card...

Law came in with
.submachine
.shotgun
.MP helmet w/removable transparent face plate
.2handguns (45 cal w/silencer & 38 cal)
.handcuffs
.removable vest
.police batton
.and of course, Order

Suprisingly, Law came in with more realistic gears as compared with the other renagade figures that came out. Which makes him fit in easy with recent 25th, ROC & POC line...

I do kinda miss the riot shield that came with him when previewed during recent comic cons.

Law uses elements of the renagades duke. The cal45 & silencer can be stored in his right leg.

The vest is really nice. Gives him a feel of being a law officer. The cal38 can be stored at the vest.

Order on the other hand is a great improvement from the recent K9 allies our joes had in the team.

Order came in with a sculpted vest making him really look like a police dog.

My only complain is that Order is just to tamed... compared to others...

I happened to have a police jeep on hand and decided to issue these to Law for their stakeout missions.

Law & Order has some great potential for troop/army building for city strike missions.
I now have 3 on hand may get 3 more later...

TFL!

Awesome review as always! And you are right about the troop building potential with this figure. I plan on purchasing a few more and do some head swaps so they don't all look alike.

I love this pic. I can't wait 'til I get my Law & Order waiting at BBTS.

I love jana defi.

...And that pic

[Kroenen]

Really nice figure and very cool review. I especially like the last shots with the police car.
I wasn't sure I would pick up this figure but I see now that he really is a must have.

BTW, strange request but has anyone tried to give him a Steel Brigade vest?

[krooklyn]

Love the pics, but where did you get the jeep? And could take more pics of the interior?

That is a tame looking pet friendly police dog, but overall those playtime shots make this look like a cool figure.

[Snow Wolf]

Cool. I laughed out loud when Law had the Cobra Trooper bent over the hood of his jeep for search incident to arrest. Where did you get that jeep?

Is it just me, or does the face sculpt of Law somewhat resemble actor Ray Liota?

go get one... or two... or more...
secondary markets here in my country, now sell L&O at a higher price...

The small hole on the back of his vest is to store his handcuffs, same as with the Renegades Cobra Trooper.

How did Law & Order and Airtight make it into the show but not Covergirl?

[~Synder Corps.~]

Great pics for a GREAT fig...my only complaint was the head and the two holsters on the same side... Allthough, a few quick fixes I made was ditch the pistol w/ silencer, cut off the ring that holds the silencer, place the .44 in that holster, use a full sized (and black) sigsaur in the higher holster, then do a head swap using the POC Hawk head, which dosen't look like an old man, and the skin tones match.

Storylines...and actually they did mention Cover Girl in the episode with Shipwreck. She was still a model and hanging in the control room on SW's boat. "Courtney"

I like this figure quite a bit. I need to get him back out of my bonus room (where all the Joes are kept) and play with him a bit more, because I opened him the same night as several other toys and I don't think I gave him a fair shake. But I really like the sculpt and I think this is a great POC style update of Law moreso than a Renegades one.

I loved the police vehicle pictures! Toys R Us has some True Heroe police vehicles, I will have to see if they have one which will work with Law!
