I know and didn't they cancel some waves of Resolute figures? I thought these guys looked awesome. The character intereptations are much closer in my mind to the classic versions than the movie interpretations, which I'm not as interested in. [Don't tell Troynos I said that. ;)]
I'd rather see Resolute then Movie interpretations anyday. Movie are cool, but Resolute are cooler.

Like how you integrated Mercer, giving him contractor status. That makes alot of sense. I'll believe ya on Snake-Eyes, sounds good to me.

Heh. Seriously though, it was the only pose I could find for the figure that it didn't look goofy (I posed my Mercer custom figure, took a picture of it, and textured/airbrushed over the image).
Anyway, knowing that you're a big Mercer fan, what'd you think of the filecard and my decision to make him a contractor attached to the Joe team? Beats the hell out of this one: YOJOE.COM | Filecard Gallery - Mercer Did you change anything with Ripcord from the last one you did? |

Okay, so here's the adult swim link: Adult Swim Video
It says new episode every WEEKDAY! Well there's only six weekdays til the 25th. So does that mean 2 new episodes a day on four of those days? I don't know. But I think I just watched it 7 times in a row. Snake-Eyes is beyond cool again! Did you notice he's skydiving without a parachute? Then the sword action is cool as hell. |

Yeah, I watched it like a dozen times already. Yeah, it looks like he doesn't have a chute--maybe he wrestles one off a para-viper before they hit the ground. Sword action awesome too. Looks like he snaps the guy's neck before sticking him. Merciless. The trailer soundtrack adds to the exhilaration. I can't wait to start watching these!

Just the image. I think it was blackrazor1 who pointed out that my original take on Ripcord was wearing his back-up chute on the front (a la the original toy, which was pretty accurate given the rigging practices at the time it was designed), when current HALO/HAHO rigging has the back-up chute integrated in the backpack. I think it looks cleaner this way, too, so thanks to blackrazor1 for pointing it out. Last edited by zuludelta; 04-16-2009 at 09:08 PM.. |

Is your army strictly 25th? Well I don't know who you are actively searching for to fill the gaps, but if there are two guys I think that are worth buying would be Interrogator and Overlord. |

Mix of 25th and original. Just happens that what I have in original has been made/will be made in 25th.
I'll probably go after an Interrogator one of these days. Overlord I'm not so sure about... Was after my time and not a big fan of his look. Maybe the Convention Set Overlord... don't mind that one too much. Need to start working on my Oktober Guard as well. Navy and Regular Infantry are where the most week spots are.

I'm not sure if I want to add in the rest of the Renegades, Taurus and Red Dog. I can easily integrate Taurus, I think, by making him an INTERPOL attaché working with Chuckles (Taurus is a sometime INTERPOL operative according to his original filecard). Red Dog is going to be a bit more challenging given that he has no military, law enforcement, or paramilitary background... the only way I can see him plausibly being atached to the Joe team is as a Combatives trainer and/or PT instructor (similar to how certain units will hire professional martial artists/athletes to supplement their training).
