No for me - it was peg warming back in the 80s. There are so many figures need to be made and there is no need to create same figure with different version.

big Hell Yes for me! not only that, I'd love to get at least one character from every branch in dress uniform, especially the sailors, who have the coolest uniforms:
Torpedo in Officer whites (Warrant Officer wear the same dress uniform as Commissioned Officers). Wet Suit in Cracker Jack blues. Shipwreck in Chief khakis. we sailors all hate the uniforms. i even had a marine ask me while i was in africa, "hey man, how many uniforms do you all have? like seven? i see you guys in all kinds of crazy stuff..." and we are actually getting rid of a few and going for a new "service uniform" its for everyone e-1 to 0-6 IIRC. would replace the working white/blue and its year round. khaki top with black slacks. i dont like it but its better to have one than two. we are also getting rid of the utilities (modern dungarees) in favor of "navy" camoflauge uniforms. they will have different shades of grey, kinda like urban, and a bit of dark blue. kinda neat. good riddance to utilities. they suck. ever since the old dungarees went bye-bye, we hated the utilities. now, as for gung-ho... YO $%&#ING JOE! give him the full dress uniform. marines have the sharpest damn uniform of any branch, and its not just the look but the pride you can see pouring from any marine in that uniform. i have a ton of respect for any marine, active or prior (once a marine, always a marine). i grew up in oceanside, just south of camp pendalton, so i was always around marines and thier families. and being in the navy, they are like brothers to me. i would absolutely love a modern version of dress gung ho. much more manly than his "blue oyster" uniform. (watch police academy and that will make sense) to all the devil dogs out there... SEMPER FIDELIS!!!!!!!!!

As another former Marine on the board, I'd buy Gung Ho in dress blues for sure. I'd prefer though if it looked more like the real thing.

I'd also like to see all 5 branches represented in accurate uniforms.
