So we now have Lt. Falcon in Marauder fatigues, but if you're like me... you're still looking for somewhere in the middle of the 25th and 30th figure. More of a vintage look like the 25th but with a more "upgraded" feel of the 30th.
I was wondering, which do you guys prefer for your updated Joe squad, for our buddy Falcon? Does anyone know if the head of the 30th will work on the body of the 25th version? |

Why not just repaint him in his vintage colors? I hate those arms on the 25th version.

I too would like to know if the new head fits on the 25th body. I don't want to paint because I want a completely playable figure without having to worry about paint wear. I've modded the arms on my 25th Falcon and if the head fits, then I'll swap the lower arms and hands of the new one onto my 25th and then I'd be happy with Falcon.
Only painted that will be required is his beret.

There are several customizers on here that's figures are playable without paintwear.

Holy crap, it's been a while since I saw the 25th version but that looks bad!

They have yet to make a proper Falcon. So far every offering has been sub-par at best.

For those that are wondering, the new Falcon head does not look good at all with the older 25th version. It appears as if there is no neck at all using the new head on the older 25th version.

This. I have to say the new 30th is far superior in just about every way to the 25th. I know it's not ARAH accurate but I happen to really like the figure a lot. |

Damn, next to Spirit, that 25th Falcon head sculpt is got to be the worse ever. It's a shame cuz I've always liked Falcon. He definitely deserves a better sculpt!
