The only troop builder I want from this wave. Hopefully he'll be plentiful if people only want Gung-Ho from the pack.

It's a good figure. My only problem with it is that they failed to put a Cobra symbol on his chest under the vest.Yet they took the time to put paint apps on the buttons and the eagle. I may pick up one or two more of this pack. It sucks that this item is only one per case. I think the CC Shipwreck pack will be the Peg Warmer. The Troop build up pack is OK but they should have given us a modern Cobra Officer/Tele Viper pack instead.

Awesome pics!
This Shadow Siegie works a lot better than the regular one (which should have had a different torso), since it looks a lot more like a commando o SpecOps CG. This pack is great. You get an army builder, and Gung Ho which is and incredible fodder figure. Nobody should have troubles to get rid of the xtras with so many customizers and such an incredible useful figure. If anything, the BIG pegwarmer is going to be that yet-another-Blowtorch and yet-another Croc Master, two figures that don't need (and almost none called for) and update. At least, they had the decency to put 1 per case, but still... Quote:
This might have been a perfect opportunity to release a kind of "Ultimate" Shipwreck, at least approximating the classic design, with a bit of added POC flare. Instead, people just had to have the "Concept Case" version? I never saw the point in it. Not everything in that damn case is worthy of release! But things become so sanctified, just because they appeared there.
Personally, I'm still debating wether to buy the whole case (the only way to get that damned Gung Ho) or not. And this Shipwreck is actually one of the few figures I want.

I like the Crimson Guard, but not in black... so this figure, while amazing, is just "meh" for me.

We already have two classic version of Shippy, and the DS one (which is my default). This one is great in the sense that is generic enough to be good fodder. Everything in it is useful, going from the vest, the legs, the torso and the arms. The head might be a bit tricky, but it's easily salvageable too.
Personally, I'm still debating wether to buy the whole case (the only way to get that damned Gung Ho) or not. And this Shipwreck is actually one of the few figures I want. I'm a big fan (not a hardcore collector) and what sells me on Joe, are the strong distinctive characters, like Shipwreck. That's the real hook.

I just realized I need black parts fro my custom Rollbar.
I think a dark CG looks cool, but I'm fine with my red ones from Retaliation.

Then again, I'm probably the only one that doesn't like the new Crimson Guard head sculpt we got with v16. I also HATE those damn Snake Eyes legs especially for a Siege.
