Yes, but a repaint of the figure, too, if that helps.

Yeah, if they did the torso in all tan, I could get behind it. I’ve considered repainting my resolute but can never bring myself to do it

Apologies if everyone has already noticed this, but is that the Resolute Roadblock vest on Roadblock? I hope they have the Retaliation Roadblock torso underneath and not the Resolute one (and that they have painted the vest in proper camo). I guess bad news for those hoping for new webgear for Roadblock.

Resolute Scarlett with Helix's legs (to make her shorter), and the entire torso painted tan. That head can be drilled deep to have it fit on that torso.

I agree that they make a better effort than the first wave...

Scarlett really needed new parts to be done correctly. But if they just refused to do that, the resolute with helix legs and new head would have been the best choice. It’s like they are trying to do the whole line from 50th parts. Lower arms look like lady jaye with skin area painted gray. I was excited for the line when we first saw the pics, modern joes back in production in 4”, but then the details. The cards are the best selling point to me, and that empty black bar on the right of the bubble and taking off real American hero just really detracts from that. The figures themselves (wave 1 and destro) make different paint choices that actually make them worse than the previous releases.

Roadblock was the only character from this wave I was really interested in so I wish the photo of him was better. I am happy with my 50th Destro but if this one has better legs I might swap him. The smooth torso on Scarlett probably is vintage accurate, and this figure does look like the best modern v1 figure that Hasbro have put out, but I don't really like the character so I don't set the bar too high for her. I am more interested in seeing an improved Lady Jaye in this line.
Not interested in Destro at all, more interested in his accessories than the actual action figure himself lol, it’s a good looking v1 Destro but he has been done to death with that mould through the years! Roadblock does look good, hope we get a better look soon, at least Hasbro is making ‘em look more retro and much more like the card art now! Yeah camo on Roadblock is definitely needed. |

We have a whole thread dedicated to "The best ME Scarlett." Just look at that for about 20 min, and you'll get the recipe there.
I'm a little disappointed. They had a chance to knock it out of the park with these 3, but we got a 2 out double with no one on. The non-resolute torso and arms on Scarlett , and RB's legs really bother me. We know that Ret RB's thighs and knees fit on 50th GH's lowers. Just take the extra step Hasbro!!!

I concur with AF here, this Scarlett does look very v1 vintage accurate, liking it a lot, don’t care what parts they used, that’s a mean looking Scarlett v1, yup, best they’ve done by far!

I guess the real thing here is we all see things a bit different. I like these. I do wish they used the Gung Ho legs for RB, but it’s not a big deal to me. I wouldn’t be any more or less excited by the resolute body.
