I luv Wave 11 Zartan

i just got my Wave 11 Zartan and im so happy with this figure
aside from them screwing up the swamp skier the figure alone is really nice and makes the 1st one they gave us look like crap when u compare them

im sure sum others may not like this fig but i just wanted to give Hasbro a pat on the back for giving us this version to replace the 1st

Good Job

Agreed, though I didn't think the first figure was too bad. The only negative on the new Zartan is no color change. If they had this bad boy change blue in sunlight it would be the best figure of the 25th/modern line easy. Not that I'm a huge Zartan fan, but to me, that would have been the perfect nostalgic figure.

yea but id like it to color change on the chest and not the face cus My 1st 25th Zartan looks like a witch now.

i was kinda glad it diddnt have the color change on this one for that reason

but i would have luved to have the Color change on just the chest

Would make it more worth getting. Now I only really want it for the Baroness and pissed Zartan, but if pissed Zartan changed color, I will easily choke up the $30 for a bunch of figures I already have.

I don't even like Zartan, but I like how his eyes look in the Wave 11 version. IMO that version is better than both the previous single card and the new 5 pack version.

when I first saw images I didn't think the figure worked; the proportion seemed off a bit combining the Gung Ho torso with Zartan legs, but in person the figure is fantastic.

My first reactions to the pics of this figure released a few months back were mixed. The original Zartan is my second favorite toy that I own, so I was psyched to get an "original" Zartan, but he still looked too similar to the wave 3 version for my tastes, particularly after I found out he wouldn't have the cool, transparent chest protector that his earliest shown prototype had.

However, after I got him, like gunslinger, my opinion changed. He is now probably my favorite 25th Joe. I really love this toy. He is a worthy update to a really terrific toy. Additionally, his card art is a thing of real beauty.
