I think if they had put the suits and generals as part of the line and not as a stretch goal, this might have fleshed out the line a little bit.
Oh, and i take back the extra heads having zero interest for me - a Mike Pence head would be great fodder for a Race Bannon figure! |

There is no Torso articulation, just waist. That really is no different than vintage up to the modern line of Joes or MTF.
Cons for me. Somewhat of a high price point, definitely not much body variety, and at the upper levels of the stretch goals all it gets you is the right to pay more to buy add-ons. No price discounting or all in to make larger backing a “better” deal, so you can just do a low tier for a few figures and add on as you might want to. kinda consider that last one a plus and negative.

Having said that, I’m pretty sure this company is using Fresh Monkey’s Eagle Force molds (looks like the same exact body type, and that Russian Trooper head is spot-on to the EF figure). As a result, I would EXPECT the same articulation. Then again, we’ve all seen the Pepsident (?) Funskool figures that used oring Joe molds yet eliminated articulation in some places. Worth asking this KS contact to be SURE before pledging.

Am I reading it correctly - that as head packs are unlocked each figure you have will get those added (pending red vs blue vs russian?) so if I pledged for 1 red and 1 Russian I get Trump and Putin and basic trooper heads now...but if other head packs unlock - I get additional heads automatically? Kinda confused why they would do suits before generals...suits are available already, but generals are not yet...

Thanks, fogger, but you posted an invalid image source. For those who need to know, as I did, the answer is that they DO have waist articulation.

The white-haird variant Jet Jungle head in the new Captain Action line is good for that. This line's goggle-masked head for the Soviet trooper looks to be the same as the CapAct StrikeTrooper, too.
