Alpine

UPC: 653569012481
Product Number: 60846
Assortment Number: 56990

Civilian climbing is hard enough as it is. A military climber is further burdened with a weapon or two, ammunition, communications equipment, laser spotter and body armor. He also has the added problem of having to climb while under enemy fire, usually in the dark or under unfavorable weather conditions. None of this fazes ALPINE, who simply loves the challenge of a sheer rock face as much as he loves auditing a battalion payroll. If it’s large, made of granite, and you can pound pitons into it, ALPINE can climb it. If it has double-column entries, he can balance it. ALPINE approaches both climbing and accounting with the same enthusiasm. He never tires of reminding his teammates that the FBI brings more bad guys to justice by examining bookkeeping than it does by kicking down doors.

Heh, I've been crossing my fingers for a 25th Alpine as well. He'd look amazing in that line.

Only thing I hated about this version was he didn't have goggles and decent gear, but I like the figure itself. 25th treatment? How 'bout an Alpine and Bazooka 2 pack?

Hate this version

Me too! He doesn't have that same appeal as the old version.
Let's hope the new Alpine is more promising!

In the pics I've seen he looks awesome. I can't wait to get him in hand.

My VvV alpine has a rope across his chest. The figure sucks however, because what soldier would be fighting in a bright yellow shirt and shorts?

Because of this color scheme I relegate this version of Alpine to piloting naval craft. He looks more laid back beach friendly.

I didnt like this Alpine much myself, I thought the hands were way too small and the uniform sucked. Mountians are cold!
