G.I.JOE Retaliation Flint Wave 2 In-Hand High-Res Images

No meaning none, and yes like a Star Wars Figure.

I'll get one just because I'm a completist, but I would rate this figure "M" for "MEH!" (especially with the lack of ankle articulation).

Really? Are jointed ankles really so important? I don't ever remember complaining that I couldn't bend the ankles on any of my ARAH Joes as a kid.

I already have Flint! Show me someone new.

I've been really spoiled by previous ankle articulation - especially the rocker ankles! So it's a real bummer to have a figure with none at all. I won't say it ruins a figure....but it does really detract from it.

Still though, I do like the looks of the figure. The headsculpt too. I'm glad it comes with a beret!

Ahhhh - that's different, man! I didn't complain about the AM/FM radio, manual steering, and manual brakes in my first car - but I wouldn't like it too much now!

I think I'm just going to hope the second version comes out.

I think the figure looks good, I like the head sculpt... my only crit would be maybe a darker color palette & jointed ankles... (& maybe some different webgear.)

Not a bad figure it's way better than the wave 1 duke that shared the same body type. I really like the sculpt of the head. I got mine from Dorksidetoys today and this and the battle kata Roadblock are both pretty good making me wish I had gone ahead and grabbed the firefly while he had them. Oh well only a couple of more months till the release of the movie and hopefully these will be abundant.

I also liked battle kata RB until they showed the one coming in one of the later waves. I think this is the issue some of the figures are going to have. They have much better versions coming later.

So how many are you gonna buy? But seriously i think it looks pretty good myself.
