I’m looking. And out of the new fireflys I have, none really hit that mark of paying tribute to the OG.
In your opinion What version firefly is the best outside of the first?

For me it’s a toss up between the Retaliation 3 pack and 50th version.

I’m with you on this. I wish the Retaliation had more pronounced camo but he is the closest color wise. The 50th has the camo I’m looking for but the colors are off. They are still the two best IMO.

Yeah, consensus is pretty much split down the middle between the two. I personally like the 50th myself. Even though the colors are a little off, almost inverted, I guess, I still think it captures the spirit of the original better.

v26 be my default Firefly. I like that his face mask doesn’t have camo.
v28 I didn’t like the colors/camo too dark.

50th for me. I flipped back and forth on yojoe to decide which to get. I felt it was the closest in regards to the OG even though the camo is reversed and the light gray is a tad bright. I intend to swap the hands on mine since it is the incorrect gray color. The non camo head was a turn off for me as well.

Retaliation 3 pack for sure
I own both the Ret 3 pack one and the 50th one, and I must say the Ret one is better. It’s better quality and the colors are closer to the ARAH one. The 50th ones body is too dark and his gloves and boots are too light. |

50th is the one I picked when returning to collecting. I just think it looks a bit better.
I will say, he's quite a bear to get to stand up with his equipment.

I have the 50th in my collection as I think the camo on the Retaliation one is too subtle, although the reversal of the colours on the 50th one does bother me. When I get the time I should use the Retaliation one as a base and repaint the camo pattern to get the best of both worlds, but that is a low priority for me.
