Its interesting they are joining the 6" crowd now too. Let's hope the 4" revamp is worthy of their copying skills whenever Joe makes an upgrade.

Im a little concerned that there are no new 3/75 figures out here yet (except for the red carry case) Almost looks like a strong 6" push...

...Ladies.
In all seriousness, though, no news from Lanard regarding the new 1:18 figures?

The Corps!® HQ The Conflict/Web Comic - The Headquarters of The Corps!® Military Action Figure Universe!
Got an email from The Corps! today, with a link to the above. Couple new single-page comics with the new characters. Looks like we're getting an army builder for The Curse! I'm stoked. Bring 'em on! Impact looks to be the new Curse field leader or something, and Smoke seems to be the new Corps infiltrator/demo expert. All 4 look really cool in the art. Hopefully they are 1/18th with ball-hips. |

If that Curse trooper is in fact an actual figure design, I'm stoked too! Is there room in the lineup for one, though? I only recollect 4 figures being announced or confirmed--Smoke, Impact, Shrapnel, and El Jefe--so I don't know if there's room for a Curse army builder; but, from the comic, the Curse trooper looks fairly similar to the illustration for Shrapnel, and could perhaps be a revision or variant.

Hmmmm! Interesting.
Impact looks like he'll have a hard mask (hockey mask style) instead of the painted Troll face in hood head i assumed Lanard would use. The Curse trooper seems to be patterned after Shrapnel with a different head which makes sense considering simple recolors would keep that figure in constant production for 20 years lol. |

Pretty pumped to see new comic stuff on the Corps website, its made me want to show you guys something.
The creative studio I'm a part of (theydidthis) did up some comic art of what we imagine an ongoing Corps! comic series could look like. What do you guys think? The Corps! Comic book art | The Corps Fans HQ

Lanard would be foolish to step in the way of you continuing this industry standard level of comic book creation (unless they already have a contract with another publisher). THE character likenesses are unmistakable and clearly the team members themselves are comic book fans. Everything about the work looks competitive with the works of BOOM , IDW or Archaia for example . VERY SOLID
