I have been rotating the line ups of my JOE team rosters in my set ups at home. (Think in terms of X-Men blue and gold squads to get an idea of what I mean.)
And... I've noticed that I have moved Gung-Ho in his comic pack darker camo'd colors into the mix more than his old school minty colors. Which Gung-Ho color scheme do you prefer? I like the darker green one, because he seems more like a bad-assed marine and less like one of the village people. The outfit looks less like a "costume" in dark green. |

That's a pretty keen observation (yes, I just used keen. No, I'm not 70). I prefer the darker too.

I also have him armed to the teeth from marauder. Which distracts from the outfit. So, I'm now noticing.

The only thing I don't like about the original release is the skin tone. When I got my CP, I swapped parts to end up with V1 vest and legs, V2 everything else. The hat needs to be OD, and the waist needs to be re-camo'd, but otherwise it looks pretty good. I've heard people complain about V1 being "bright blue" and "zomg shoot me here!" but I just don't see it. The ARAH fig is guilty, of course, but the 25A figure's "blue" is very desaturated, much more gray than blue. Line him up next to Shipwreck, Spirit, Cutter, Airborne, Starduster, Shockwave, Glenda... he suddenly ceases to be "blue."
