I like Ace for its nod to the classic figure, but for my money, the best Ace came with the Ghoststriker.

I think some folks, since he is in a comic pack, where hoping for a more standard pilot look like Slipstream (or Ace v.2,3 and 4) and i can understand that, since that is what he frequently sported in the comics...

I'm actually glad he looks like my vintage figure. I do love the look of that other Ace too though. Maybe we'll get that version along with a new Skystriker?

I don't know about seeing any chin in the pics, but it does look like there is the possibility of the visor raising up (which would be cool as hell). Let's hope we can see some more pics soon.

I love the new figs. Ace looks like a cross between a test pilot and an SR-71 pilot (they dress like Astronauts). WW looks like a good base for pilot customs. Some green paint, and you've got Wild Bill. A little swapping between the two and you could have some fun.
Rock N Roll's gun was based on the German MG-3, in turn based on the WW2 MG-42 (they just rechambered the MG-42 to NATO standard 7.62mm ammo) For the original R&R they took the backend of an M-60 and stuck on the front end of the MG-3. |
