1. Cobra Trooper * (this is the figure that made me love the line)
2. Baroness (don't have her yet, but she looks amazing in all pics)
3. Destro * (do not like his character, but the figure is very well done)
4. Snake Eyes * (again, not a fan of the character, but the figure is excellent)
5. Duke * (best Duke figure we've ever gotten)
6. Beach Head (the green weapons are a problem)
7. Cobra Commander (helmet is fine, color scheme is fine, but the uniform reminds me of Sgt. Pepper and the weird gold chain is just awful)
8. Scarlett * (she is why I originally bought Classified, but her design is too busy, her weapons are dumb, and her hair should be darker)
9. Gung Ho (a boring, weirdly non-traditional take on the character)
Refuse Bin (won't buy):
1. Red Ninja (what the heck even is this thing? no pupils? lots of bulky armor? just an awful design)
2. Both Roadblocks (I don't have this character in 3.75" and I guess I won't have him in Classified)
The Trooper is amazing.
Hit the nail on the head. I'd invert the order of 1-3 primarily on the basis that I have Destro in hand and can tangibly see how phenomenal it is. CT is fantastic and I'm sure will be in hand, but my personal position is to give preference to unique characters. For me, Scarlett is in the refuse bin. Design is just not enticing to me. Beach would be in top five easily if they painted his weapons. Sucks they didn't but the figure itself is stellar.
