Random uniform related question, which has bugged me for years:
What boots does Snake Eyes (and in fact the whole team) wear in the earliest comics - E.g. the SE Origins series (Marvel ARAH #26-27) and Silent Interlude (#21). They are drawn being quite high, and with no visible lacing. They look a lot like high/tall riggers' boots. Are these supposed to be a real boot, a representation of a real boot, or just something else? The whole team appear to wear the same style boot, so it's not just a peculiarity of SE's uniform. I'll look for a decent image of other members of the team in one of the comics and append it here Last edited by lardman; 01-18-2013 at 05:11 PM.. |

Looks like we're getting a new Cobra, female, named Crimson Asp. Can't wait to see what her story is.
And possibly a new Joe female? It's not sure yet if the "Freestyle" art is a new character or Lady Jaye.

That's pretty exciting. THe one thing I love most about the convention sets are new characters. Part of me hopes Freestyle is a new pilot for the Night Boomer, of course the other part of me will be dreading a $200+ price tag for such a set.

Wow I'm stoked to hear about Repeater, Muskrat, Spearhead and Psycheout. I hope H&R isn't a simple repaint though. I think they could do better. Would have been great it they included Sneak Peek. I suspect a Night Boomer may be coming since they already have the mold for it.

Tank, you must have missed the concept art that was posted. H&R is much better then the 7-pack version. Crimson Asp looks awesome.

She looks like a Baroness with an eyepatch.
I would LOVE to have her(love the name ;) ) but no way in hell am I shelling out any major kind of cash for her. :( |

Cobra Mortal looks cool. Nice addition to the Cobra forces.

I'm a little underwhelmed. I had such High Hopes. Lime Green? They could have made him look so much better with a different color scheme. Then there is the elephant in the Room, the Jazzercise pants. I bet he'll barely be able to stand up.
Not a fan of the white cobra mortal, but we'll see if he grows on me.

I saw the the concept art, which was awesome, but I didn't want to assume that the figures would stand up equally in quality. So far Letal doesn't look so great. The head sculpt is nice though. I just hope they do the Joes justice.
