FSS 7.0 from the GI Joe Collector's Club Discussion

Probably one of the most faithful updates that I've seen from the club. It's a shame the original looked like shit to begin with.

Is it just me, or is that left arm a bit low in the socket?

I think it's the photoshopper's poor photoshopping skills.

because dusty's mock came first, and everyone bitched.

they've at least proven that they're capable of listening to criticism.

also, sometimes you get lucky when hasbro(and customizers) have handed you the recipes on a silver platter.

No doubt, seems like this head was pretty much a given as well as those arms. Overall this figure looks pretty decent, of course how they look in hand is what really matters.

All joking aside, I wouldn't put it past the club to give Treadmark an orange colored knife, lol.

Skidmark looks exactly like he should - but I'm a bit concerned about using the 25th SE torso.

It may cause him look 'stubby' with the POC SE arms and ROC PP SE legs as well as make the vest fit extremely loose. Let's hope not, but a more modern torso might have been a better choice.

Once again the club is ruining what could be a solid figure with a "fatal flaw" parts choice. This 25th era torso is terrible... it is too short and has sub par detail. 90% of the 25th parts are woefully outdated and should be retired.

I agree with not using 25th parts, but the 25th torso works very well with that vest. The DG SW torso is too narrow, so the arms flare out when the vest is on as shown below. I may cut away from the vest at some point on my custom.

$30+ and we get a rifle and a pistol? Someone get me a "Whatchyou talkin bout Willis?!" Gif please.

It looks like if they go with the torso for Skidmark, it'll be like what they did with Sneak Peek and Steel Brigade, not a good combo with the arms.
