Congrats! I'm feeling kinda good knowing that my vote counted

Great choice and she will be a welcomed addition to my collection. I also really hope we see all entries at some point.

Hasbro, please just make all of them and place it in an online exclusive boxset.

Congrats! I will buy her!

Congrats, Bill! That is beyond awesome!

Grats to the others as well, out of the 90+ books out there, I'm sure it was an honor to even be selected.

Here's the deal, if one of the female characters had to win this was the one I choose. I was looking at the Cobra Black Jack was my personal favorite though. The reason being the sketches depict the figure build/parts choice. I really liked the parts they used for him. I can't tell which parts they will use from her given the picture and female figures have minimal part choice as it is so I'm not that enthused. But her head sculpt should be amazing. I will buy her no matter what. I would buy all of them no matter what.

Stiletto was my runner up choice. My vote was Whisper. But congrats to Bill and us as I am happy to add this figure to my collection. Did you guys notice it said this figure will be added to the 2016 Joe figure line up. Could she be included in another 50th wave or a whole new line?

Thank you all for the support, votes, and encouragement. I've been sitting here for a while trying to figure out how to address this and say what I want to say, for as thrilled as I am to have won, I don't want to make it seem like I am gloating or in any other way slighting Justin, Troy, and Jim, who were nothing short of 100% encouraging throughout this whole process and with whom I have grown very close. Reading the announcement last night was a great joy, and I'm on cloud nine this morning. I can't wait to walk into Toys R Us and see a figure I created hanging on the pegs (let's hope she's easier to find than Gung-Ho). There is just a touch of bitter-sweetness to that knowing that Justin, Troy, and Jim won't be able to share this experience with me.

We made a vow that the winner would take the lead in the campaign to get the other three characters made. Toward that end, I will be starting another thread as soon as I publish this.

Please don't mistake my words above as anything less than excitement and gratitude for everyone who has voted for my character, offered encouraging words, or otherwise been part of the process (because in the end, I think that this was good for the brand regardless of who you voted for). I'm thrilled that Stiletto was chosen. I just don't in any way want to make it seem like I am gloating or otherwise doing anything to make my fellow contestants feel bad.
