To be honest, Kwinn is such a badass that I'm surprised that he didn't just wear his safari clothes in the artic. Hell of a way to intimidate people.

Higgins if I only get one

Sign me up for one of those three-packs. I'd be excited about a deluxe release too.

Higgins Kwinn in the three-pack, Arctic Kwinn as a deluxe? The other way around? I'd buy two different Kwinns.

Prefer him to be shorter than Road Pig, but with a heavy build. Make him taller than average for an Inuit, but maybe not freakishly tall for a Classified figure.

The comic does make him look like a giant sometimes but he's not a consistent size there. He shrinks when there's a lot of people to fit in the frame.

The first pic makes/draws him huge and lumbering second pic he looks a lot bigger than the 30 cal but the bottom him w/the other 2 and the cops he looks about 6-3 to 6-4 . He needs to be big and I?ll be honest no matter what he will look 100% better than the 2 previous versions of him look both of those are a mess ..

As you probably heard me say in other threads SGT. SAVAGE and the Screaming Eagles are all big & tall guys. While you with the Extreme figures with the exception of SGT. SAVAGE, LT. STONE, FREIGHT and IRON KLAW, (who are all tall,) Lenny could cherry pick from the Extreme Team and S.K.A.R. who he wanted to be a big muthafucka.

If Lenny were to make Kwinn true to his height, since tooling is there it could be used to make a new big muthafucka for Cobra-La. Which would be dope as fuck.

As I said earlier I'll give the design team on Tracker Kwinn a pass. However, that Higgins Kwinn that came out with the R.O.C. figures. They should have scrapped that shit. Damn that figure looks bad.

See I can?t even give the first one a pass the way his head is sculpted crooked into his parka hood or whatever is just terrible , it just never sat right w/me .. the second one is just as bad the only thing that made him okay was all the parts he came with ?.

But I kind of agree how you could give the first one a pass. The second one is just terrible.

I wonder if they would spend all the new tooling required to make him a Road Pig sized guy.

Yes, I hope RoadPig remains an exception. Bigger and bulkier is fine, but not to this extent. RP is my favorite Dreadnok, but his sheer size and face sculpt have kept me from buying him so far.
I've seen a few comparison shoots, if you put him next to some girls or regular dudes, he looks like a complete different scale, crazy.

But back to the topic.
While I personally prefer "Higgins", I can easily imagine that they reuse the body of an arctic Version for other big guys like Horror Show or an arctic Bazooka.

I'm not going to attack that guy. I'm just going to wait ten minutes until he gets hypothermia and dies.

He does have plenty of natural insulation, though.

I wasn?t crazy about roadpigs look when we first saw the render but he grew on me after I picked up my first one . Then got another for half price from target and I?m okay w/him he?s better than I thought he would be he looks good w/the muzzle and the pig mask as well .. he s a big lumbering dude and it the sculpt suits him I?m still not a huge fan of the open mouth and while I still feel like he looks like human shrek im glad to own 2 of him I couldn?t imagine
Not having him w/the rest of the noks on my shelf ..


Also will take any wins they make .. Higgins or arctic ..
