but the SIGMA 6 sculpt of Zartan is 100X better than that awful 25th anniversary version.

thank you.

You know the Sigma Zartan is awesome, too bad I never saw it in the stores. I do own Spirit and I will probably get Flint for his namesake.

S6, while not my cup of tea is certainly a very cool line, I just prefer my joes 3 3/4.

Sigma six sculpts are funny looking and ugly, hence the end of the sigma six line. While the first 25th rendition of zartan is good,"not as good as the original" I expect the upcoming zartan and swamp skier designed like the original to blow me away......the 25th line rules all!!

I really dig the 25th version. It's a great figure.

But I dig the Sigma version too.

You know what they say about action figures with big feet don't you....they need big boots.

I prefer my Joes 3 3/4 to 4 and nothing will EVER change that.

I have a few sigmas but stopped collecting them because they were too expensive and I need to finish my 12 in custom kitbashes, I'll have too post pics of my 12in line because they are by far my favorites, but I like the 25th Zartan he looks fine to me!

See, although I would agree that I like the S6 Zartan more than the 3.75", and I'm not an S6 fan...we're comparing apples and oranges here, IMO.

With the 8" line, Sculptors/Designers were given a lot more room (literally) to work with. S6 designs flow well with the Character they're designed for...because that's just it...They're designed that way.

With the 25th line, the sculptors tried to catch what made the ARAH figure great and bring it screaming in to "today", ala what T4H did with He-Man.

Although the sea sickness is something I can do without, the 3.75" 25A Zartan is the best Zartan released to date....in that scale.

Since people typically read 1 paragraph and move on, I know I'm wasting my time with all these keystrokes. :D So to wrap things up, sure, S6 Zartan does rock, 25A could've mimmicked it...but then neither would be original and true to their line.

I think my main gripe with the sigmas was the weapons, I like more realistic weapons as opposed to the future made up stuff that most (not all) of the S6 came with, but I think both S6 and 25th did the Joe line some justice! Dashing through the sky comes the .....nevermind!
