Agreed. Wraith is a turd, IMO.

Cool...
If no one likes Wraith, any of you have an extra variant you no longer require? |

I don't know much about the character. If you take his visor and flip it upside down he looks like a rhinoceros beetle. The guns on his arms are retarded, I could see using the armor torso arms and legs for a Nullifier custom. His head is ok if you cut the pegs off, put a helmet with night vision goggles on him and he looks like a night troop. I bought him because I wanted to give him Battle Armor CC's legs and have an armored freak. I now have a plan for him without the chest armor that is amazing in WIP I just need a paint ap to complete.
I think the worst fig of the 25th is obviously the new zartan. he comes with a storm shadow face!? wtf! why does he need to disguise himself as stormy?! does not make sense. no sense what so ever... |

It's his origin, he dressed up like Storm Shadow and murdered the Hard Master... making Snake Eyes think that SS killed the HM. Then Stormy joined Cobra to ascertain the true identity of his uncles killer...

You are exactually right there Lantern Lad on the mask and why he would need it. I always wanted Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow to corner him and take their sweet time with him. The revenge they would take out on him would be well worth it to see!

I'm actually grateful for Wraith, the sky blue bazooka trooper, and the purple Para-Viper because they broke me of my 25th/Modern carded completism. That means I'll only get Blowtorch and Torch out of Wave 13! More money saved...to spend on more Eels and COBRA Divers if I find them.

I would argue the Para-Viper as worst figure and my least favourite. What is the purpose of this character? Jump out of a plane to a Lite-Brite convention? What kind of infiltration trooper has neon orange knee pads and a bright yellow knife holster? And the big sniper rifle - I would have thought that something more all purpose would be of more benefit. What is up with the flippers that attach to the back of the boots? Is he that bad a jumper that he MIGHT need to put them on while jumping because he doesn't know where he is going to land?
I hope this guy lands in water and all that unnecessary equipment drags him down to the bottom of the pool and drowns him. In comparison, at least for me, the Wraith is at least an attempt at something functional (save for the big gun - but the Para-Viper can use that one too!) but they should have changed the colour of the Wraith's backpack. Those are my only issues with the character. But I actually like the looks and execution of it. I just wish that the pipes looked stronger. |
