I would buy these as a couple of box sets no problem. Great job and an excellent example of how a reboot of the line could represent the best of the PoC and 25th aesthetic.

I would easily pay FSS second hand prices for a Clutch done like that.

People hate 'repaints' but these (and the British Royal Guard set thread I bumped) represent what is possible when you take the best available parts and think creatively.
Hasbro (and the Club via proxy) have the existing molds and paint patterns to make lots of kick ass figures but for some reason don't do it. Blue Bazooka and SDCC Steeler should not be using legs with no ankle articulation. The Club has consistently made non-optimal parts choices using molds that are universally acknowledged as bad or, in the cases of Tollbooth's legs, Skullbuster's arms and Keel-Haul's body, clearly don't work together. We don't need tons of expensive new molds (though investment in the brand is nice) - just some inspired composition and a willingness to spend money on paint apps.

These look incredible.
Grunt I wasn't sure of until I IDed all the others, but he doesn't really have a defining look for you to capture, so that's not your fault |

Outstanding job. Hopefully, you'll update the next sets of figures, as well.
