I actually like how Banzai turned out. Since they couldn't do the original style of mask proper justice, something utilitarian like this is a clever way to at least pay homage. I do miss the splats on the pants, though.

Same here. Looks decent enough. Much preferred to yet another Snake Eyes.

I have absolutely no love for or knowledge of ninja force, but i just checked up on them, and i'm only missing T'Jbang to complete the good guys. I might even keep them all now, as they're just goofy enough to be fun.

Forearms appear to be Storm Shadow (v40). I assume the hands go with them, but I don't have a Banzai in-hand.

I'll have to stick up for the club regarding Banzia, at least for the build. The original appears to be wearing a cloth mask, so they did a pretty good job of emulating that with this version.
The lack of speckles on his pants is another matter, however.

Banzai seems solid and the one NF figure that doesn’t look goofy. I’ll get him for that and I didn’t get any NF figure
But is this webgear removable? Or should the figure be unscrewed to do so like Ret SE? And I couldn’t see a pony tail... |

I'll definitely be adding splatter. Probably a head swap, too. If i can match paint

This was pretty much my sentiment for both Eco Force and Ninja Force and I’m really happy we got as much out of these two sub-teams as we did. Now that it’s over, sure, I’d have liked other characters that weren’t made at all, especially some drivers like Dogfight or Major Storm, but I would have much preferred to have gotten Eco Force Barbecue and Deep Six and the two Brazilian Sky Patrol Joes to close those teams out. All things considered, the amount of figures the Club was able to produce in the last few years is pretty crazy if you think about it.

I could not disagree more. Another version of Snake Eyes; moreover one of the worst versions of Snake Eyes for that matter; thankfully not. Very happy to get Banzai. And I do not think that the 13th Grand Slam fiasco can ever be vindicated, or forgotten, or forgiven.
