Ok I included the General in the Artillery list, though I'm not sure if the Brawler is better suited as an artillery piece or ADA. Again the blueprints don't give any info about missile type. It could be used like the VAMP II--a mobile ADA unit with SAMs. Or it could perform like the Wolverine with surface-to-ground rockets that release cluster bombs over its target.
The Brawler lists the Missle type as Surface to Air. So the Brawler looks like it could holds its own as a self defending self-propelled Artillery piece. |

I got into a discussion on Shipwreck's lation nationality in another thread.
I never realized/considered him to be latino. The name is about it. Cartoon and comic he was never shown to be latino. Even the figure isn't latino. Now, looking closely at the card art, he appears to be latino. So is he latino or just has a latino sounding last name? As for Recoil, at the time, they didn't really make the figures in different sizes (like they do now with Roadblock and Bazooka, who is a BIG BOY). If they made a Modern Era Recoil, they'd have to use Bazooka as the base.

So for the Alley Viper, do you guys want to see the visor plate that came with the first Alley Viper or the batman-esque mask that came with later versions or something else entirely? I must say that I love the assault vest with the upside down knife sheath on Alley Viper. Something tells me that this vest will show up on a Joe. Wonder who? It would make a great vest for a custom Billy from Predator.

I'd probably use him as Depth Charge. Wet-Down and Tracker are SEaLs, so having too many SEaLs in diver gear annoys me, lol.

You know, I like the Tracker concept and his file card but never liked the uniform they gave him. Doesn't exactly say SEAL, especially the orange weapons and raft. He needs to be in a wetsuit or camo.

Yeah. Law definately had a spanish accent, but didn't appear or have a latino name. I know a girl, she's definately latino, and her last name (not married) is Bresnahan.

I probably won't use him at all. I try to make all my SEALs out of their Scuba gear. at the moment I use the VvV Torpedo as Wet-Down. I tried to put a Clone Trooper head on a V1 25th Snake Eyes body, since they the clones look a bit Polynesian. It's too big though, so doesn't sit right.

Alley Viper needs his original helmet with flip-up mask.
Tracker definately doesn't look like a SEaL. He needs a different, non-scuba, outfit.
