I took it to mean a armored vest on the figure designed to work with the exo-suits. I agree that a lot of it is about the route they went for design, but it left an impression that there may be a armored vest some day.
I fully concur that its not going to create the full armored look that many wanted, but I hope that it makes the figure seem like he is at least wearing hard body armor that thematically fits with wearing an exo skeleton. If I am wrong, I'll figure something out, there are a ton of armored figures, and armored vests already to use. Anyways here's hoping for future add-ons to the exo-suit, would be cool if we could build a tank exo at some point, dreadnaught/heavy. |

These appear to be closely modeled on the exo-suits from Edge of Tomorrow. The suits in the movie have little torso armor as well. They wore vests under the exo-suits. I take it that Marauder is working on a new vest that will fit the current torso and fit under the chest pieces of the exo-suit.

Chimera Ops are probably my favorite new color scheme. I'd love to see Stratos Ops unlocked too!

No, I agree with you completely. It's not armored if you look at photos of Tom Cruise in the movie. It's a plate carrier similar to what Marauder already makes. My guess is that their current plate carrier won't fit under the suit, so they're trying to design something thinner that will still work.

Stupid question: the figures are well done with articulation everyone likes?
I'm debating whether to go from a single contract ops guy to a pick 6. Thoughts? |

The articulation is just as good as joes, probably better than some of the older ones. Being able to split them at the waist( just pull apart) makes customizing a breeze, while still maintaining a very sturdy construction. As far as a pick 6 goes, you could get something different with each choice(val, dog, exo...ect. .....) and try them all out. At $22.50 each they are a great deal, as to buy them with all the gear these will come loaded with would be a lot more, and of you don't like them you can always sell or trade them off.
