FULL REVIEW: That Figures: REVIEW: Elite Force Corba (Marine Force Sniper) Final Thoughts A cool figure at an awesome, affordable price. That's becoming our mantra at That Figures but once again, it's true. I want to stress that the Elite Force figures are affordable and by no means ''cheap' (at least not in the derogatory sense.) These figures have great sculpts, neat accessories, solid paint apps (so long as you're selective in your buying) and superb articulation. Hands-down they've got to be the best cash-to-quality line out there and if you don't believe me I suggest you pick one (or two or six) up for yourself. You won't be disappointed. As for Corba, he's another strong addition to the line-up. The figure's overall look is great (it's awesome to have a desert trooper to break up all the green and olive drab) and although I'm not a massive fan of his role as a sniper, it's the work of a few seconds to switch his weapon for something a little less specialized (and let's face it, if you're a military toy collector you'll have all kinds of nifty items he can use.) There's some great detail in the sculpt, the articulation is good, the paint app works well to accentuate the figure's look and he comes with some neat accessories (even if you may want to make a few adjustments to them.) All this for $5. A great-looking figure collectors of modern military figures (and kids who dig soldiers) will love. More Here: That Figures: REVIEW: Elite Force Corba (Marine Force Sniper)

I have the original, when he was a Marine machine gunner. It's a great figure.

Nice. Like I said in the Review, I switched the sniper rifle for an M16-a-like and he was immediately 81.3% cooler.

That is a *really* nice looking figure. Almost nice enough to make me break my "No 1:18th scale figures" stance. Yeah... I'm not looking at this review any longer or i'll buy this. |

I don't do custom figures and I try to avoid pulling parts off (in case I break them) but from what I gather a lot of people are using them as custom fodder and from what I hear they can be popped off.
