We are finishing up the 5th box with the 10th figure from each FSS. The winner last week was:
Bombstrike Week 10 brings us 1 Joe, 1 international Joe, and 7 Cobras. There are some real strong characters this week!!! There are some great builds this week too. Each week has been difficult to choose one, but this week may be the toughest yet!!! After interrogating this list, I may have to wave the white flagg. Please vote and comment on who is your Ultimate FSS - 10th figure!!! Please also post who is your Best of the Worst figure. In case there is a tie for the least number of votes, we'll determine the Best of the Worst from the figure that has the most BOTW posts. Winners: 1st Figure - Psyche-Out (3.0) 2nd Figure - Repeater (3.0) 3rd Figure - Muskrat (3.0) 4th Figure - Big Boa (1.0) 5th Figure - Salvo (5.0) 6th Figure - Desert Scorpion (2.0) 7th Figure - Hit & Run (3.0) 8th Figure - Cesspool (2.0) 9th Figure - Bombstrike (3.0) Best of the Worst: 1st Figure - TF Shipwreck (2.0) 2nd Figure - Ice Viper Officer (7.0) 3rd Figure - Barricade (4.0) 4th Figure - Skull Buster (2.0) 5th Figure - SF Falcon (Final 12) 6th Figure - Lt.

imho, this is a tough choice among three drivers/pilots: WORMS, Keel Haul, and Interrogator. And Xamot is a close 4th.
The others are nobodies or bad builds. TF Tunnel Rat is worst of the round by the same merits as last week's TF Psyche Out being the worst. Nano BAT means nothing to me and would also make a good Worst, but I hate the Club wasting spots in the Final 12 on dumb stuff more than I hate another BAT rendition. I'm leaning towards WORMS as best because it's a pretty excellent WORMS and while WORMS is just a driver figure, it's a Cobra that's memorable from childhood with a unique look. Keel Haul is a good driver figure as well. Interrogator came along later and wasn't as memorable. Xamot is nice but not as cool as WORMS of Keel Haul.

It’s not a perfect build, but I voted for Keel Haul for having an important role on the team.
For the worst, I’ll go with purple and yellow Night Creeper Leader. Should have been orange and black. I also dislike the Nano Bat and the international TF repaints.

We only have 3 figures left after this week. I've whittled it down to 2 figures, and I'm just not sure who to vote for. Here's my run down:
Nano BAT: This is our first BAT with translucent plastic. I don't really know what a Nano BAT is but it was cool looking when it came out. I like this BAT, but it will not be winning this week. Keel-Haul: I wonder if getting this ME figure made anyone go out and get a FLAGG. I was very tempted to do so, but I just don't have the room at the moment. I love this figure!!! Yes, I had to change the legs, and it uses the ROC nondescript vest, but it works well in this color. The head sculpt is probably in the top 4 of the FSS head sculpts that we got. It makes the whole figure!!! And we got a flag of the FLAGG!!! Night Creeper Leader: I never knew about this figure when he came out, and after seeing the different versions, I wish he came in the orange/black colors and not the "Lakers" version. I do like the build, and after getting the Raginspoon blindfold, and painting the head gold, I'm actually happy to add this figure to my Cobra Ninja team. Now if we could ever get concept case night creepers, then the value of this figure will go through the roof!!! Interrogator: I'm happy to have this figure in my collection, and this figure has a great chance to win this week. I have no nostalgia for this figure, and I don't like the ROC parts. I do like that Mark Weber wrote the file card, and that his name was the original name for Dr. Mindbender. Alas, it will not be enough to get my vote this week. Xamot: Like last week, a suited crimson twin is a great figure, and this is the better of the 2 that we got. The gigantic head doesn't bother me, and he is the final figure we got with the stacks of cash!!! Unfortunately for him, he will not be getting my vote this week. WORMS Officer: I was out of Joes when the MAGGOT was released, so he has no nostalgia to me. I also don't like the gigantic "Rocketeer" helmet. I was able to trade him at Joelanta so I guess he's not that bad. I'm sure it would be cool to get a few of these and display them in a MAGGOT (hint, hint, pics please)!!! Crystal Ball: Again, I was out of Joes when this figure was released, and I guess this was a peg warmer back in the day. I do like that Stephen King wrote his file card, but the look of this figure is just too out there for me. I also find the head sculpt to be too cartoony. His head just got beat out by Carla "Doc" Greer for the worst FSS new head sculpt. This figure may get my BOTW vote this week. I made a more realistic version of this figure, inspired by how he was drawn in the GIJCC magazine: PS: My MOC Crystal Ball is on my BST!!! Price is better than ebay, the last time I checked. Munitia: Yes, this figure shares her body with the Baroness, but this head sculpt is just awesome!!! To me this head sculpt is also in the top 4 of new FSS head sculpts (Frostbite, Big Boa, Keel-Haul, Munitia). I like the paint on her body that makes you not really see the Baroness parts. I like her pistol/blade thing too. Is there any real world inspiration for this weapon? She is going to make voting for a winner this week very difficult. TF Tunnel Rat: Like TF Psyche-Out, I have no desire for this figure. Maybe if he came with the pulled down overalls piece, then I may have been tempted to get him, but he is a pass for me. Of course, if the "End of the Club" sale gets him to a $10, figure, then he probably will be worth it for the parts I guess. Keel-Haul/Munitia? Keel-Haul/Munitia? Keel-Haul/Munitia? I don't know!!! Both are awesome figures and great additions to our collections. I guess I'm going with Keel-Haul this week as I was still into Joes when his ARAH version came out. Nostalgia wins again!!! I think the Nano BAT, or NCL will be the BOTW this week, but I'm going with Crystal Ball. I hate the head sculpt, and the reduced articulation single jointed knees don't help either.

Best for me is Interrogator, one of my all-time favorite characters. Crystal Ball is my runner up. Worst figure is TF Tunnel Rat, not because he’s bad, just the weakest in a strong lineup.
BTW, when this is over, we should poll the strongest of the winners and worst of the worst |

Yes. The plan is to add 3 more weeks to vote on one single winner. I guess we can do the same for the BOTW figures too.

I went with Keel-Haul. That figure is a must have for any Flagg owner and I’m very glad the Club got that one out.
