Delta 6 Accelerator Suit Ripcord from G.I. Joe Rise of Cobra has been reviewed. The first figure of Ripcord to be released in the line, the suit shown is only used in the movie for a brief time, and has been shown in action extensively in the trailers.
While the fans are divided over who likes this suit in the film or not, the figure may be a different case altogether. So how did it turn out? Click on the discuss button to find out!

Ripcord is in the Accelerator Suit. His helmet is removable and also splits open midway to show his face like a knight looks with his visor up. The head sculpt is a good one that looks very natural. The robotic look of the legs allows the knee and ankle joints to hide in plain sight. The entire figure has a good range of motion except for the shoulders. The shoulder armor hinders the movement a little, but not too much. Ripcord comes with a removable Helmet, Rifle, Ammo Belt, Missile Launcher with Missile and GI Joe Stand.
This figure has a cool techno-armor feel to him and is well made. The biggest flaw here is the lack of weapons he comes with. While most figures in this line have so many weapons they can’t possibly hold all of them, Ripcord has only one rifle. The missile launcher looks like a generic launcher with some detail on it and a small gatling gun on the side. The ammo belt can be plugged into the bottom of it.
Figure Rating: 8 out of 10

I like it.

I'm skipping all the Accelerator Suit figures, unless we get a Scarlett, Cover Girl version. The helmet flipping open is a nice touch.

i'm getting a bunch of these and turn them into RoC Steel Brigade!
(one reason why i'm skipping the pit commandos!)

Reminds me of Robocop or even the Valor vs. Venom Razor Troopers without the blades. Don't like the acceletaror suits that much, never really cared much about Ripcord, and hate the fact that they changed his race.
Archrivals says
These Delta 6 suits are cool IMO. The Duke version should available soon..

Griff says
dont like em one bit. Easy pass. however if someone took his head and put it on speed metals body we'ed have a devent STATIC LINE which i firmly believe that was gonna be marlons character as the name of said Character was Wallace Badduci and one of RA ripcords guns look eerily like one of the sky patrol figures weapons. Whjy the changed him to ripcord i willnever know or understand or like.
