Looks like Hasbro at least worked on a prototype of a Renegades Zartan since most of the Retaliation Zartan shares a lot of the same design. . .

Yep, I need me a Zartan! This is my most wanted toy out of the retaliation line.

That's the first thing I thought too, when I saw this Retaliation Zartan. Not a match, but the designs certain seem very similar. However, as if the lack of ankle articulation weren't enough, it looks like his hood will pretty much cancel out any real head movement. That's a bummer.

He looks like a piggy bank with that slit cut into the top of his head!

I have him and he's sweet. He's totally badass and ready for action. If you see him, get him. You'll be glad you did. Trust me.

The gear is obviously a homage but the figure itself looks
nothing like Renegades.

Hasbro always try to use existing tooling for their figures so its obvious that changes are due to existing parts but you can still tell its Renegades without a lot of thinking. Ohh or you wanna try to tell me that Hasbro produced very simmilar figure just by coincidence? Last edited by Storm; 05-04-2012 at 05:37 AM.. |

I was prepared to give him a go, but now I have him in my hands I don't rate this Zartan at all. The plastic is greasy, the torso too long (probably heightened by the lack of belt), what few paint apps there are have been poorly applied and the accessories are a mess. Should have used the Vosloo head too...
Give him POC Spirit's bow & quivver and he improves slightly, but otherwise I'm content to leave this line for the kids.
