So, I just got the V.A.M.P. today, and I got to say, it's pretty awesome. And as Clutch was always my favorite Joe, it was pretty sweet to get the update of him, too, which Hasbro did a great job with.
Thing is, I was always a bigger fan of the original comic, more than the toyline. Clutch was a pretty major character in the comic, and, for the most part, he was depicted not with a beard, but with a few days worth of stubble. While I dig the bearded original-toy-accurate version we just got, wouldn't it be cool if Hasbro released a comic-pack with a stubbled comic-book-accurate version of the character? Partner him up with a new fixed-head Breaker and Hasbro's got a comic-pack, made up of two simple repaints with new heads. heck, Hasbro can even give alternate color schemes, like tan Clutch or cartoon Breaker, if they think it'll help the sell. The way the new heads pop-off so easily, people could simply pop-and-swap the head they want with the body they want. I know I'd buy one, would anyone else? |

I wouldn't mind a tan clutch. Pack him with a tan grunt or maybe Zap.

5 o'clock shadow Clutch is a great idea, put him in his tan uniform, which I prefer and I'm sold.

I would not want a vehicle driver in a comic pack or a single card. IMHO, Tan Clutch goes with the Tan Vamp. That's it.

I know what you mean. It's either spend $50 for abunch of crappy figures and vehicles or spent 20-30 on ebay for just Short-Fuze. It sucks.

I'm happy with the Clutch I have. I don't think a 'comic' version would be different enough (and I thought the beard 'shadow' on Breaker looked a bit weak)

I think the Clutch we got is perfect. I plan on getting a 2nd to customize to make a tan Vamp II '84 Clutch.
