With Tripwire, Airborne and now Doc pipelined, there are only four figures from the ARAH Class of 1983 that haven't received the Classified treatment.
With two of those (Grunt v2 and the Viper Pilot) being straight repaints, and one (Grand Slam) being a pretty safe bet as a 90% reuse of the (all but inevitable based on Glenda's loadout) Flash tooling, we only have Ace left. With that in mind, what is your preference for a Classified Ace: straight update of the vintage figure in the fishbowl helmet, a wholesale redesign to better represent a modern pilot outfit/aesthetic, or some combination of both? Personally, as much as I love the vintage designs in general, I think Ace is one of those who could really benefit from a ground-up redesign. I never really cared much for his vintage look. It just seemed more spaceman than Top Gun to me. Last edited by YouNotCookin; 07-16-2023 at 02:12 PM.. |

I'd really prefer the v3 Ace (1993) that resembled the Hall of Fame figure.

I would prefer the v1 Ace. In all his white astronaut gear type look with removable helmet.
