So what other figures that could potentially be made in this line to give us "Ultimate" modern era versions of V1 ARAH figures:
So far I can think of the following that need updates: Duke Scarlett (Retro is close, but the torso and forearms/hands are off) Roadblock (Retro is better, but needs new head, webgear, and fully articulated legs) Falcon Shockwave Doc Tele-Viper Ninja Viper Major Bludd Buzzer Ripper Torch Monkeywrench Wetsuit Alpine Anyone else?

Disregarding club figures:
Bazooka Quick Kick footloose Jinx Crazylegs Outback Tunnel Rat Spirit Serpentor Dr. Mindbender Tomax/Xamot Zarana Zandar Zanzibar Wild Bill Cover Girl Dusty Salvo Mutt Shipwreck Hit&run ( a simple palette swap) Stalker Iron Grenadiers Cobra Officers Recondo Ripcord General Flagg Rock Vipers ...and many, many more. a lot of great characters were never revisited post-25th/ROC construction, or never made it out of ARAH at all. |

I would love Footloose and Dusty. I don’t think we got a 25th version of Dusty. Maybe in the one of the DVD packs but not an a card. Recondo I want to see get the retro treatment too. Oh, apparently I got a second Retro Scarlett today from Walmart.con.

What's wrong with FSS Salvo? That figure was one of the finalists for the best FSS figures voted on here on the Tank.

My Walmart has a spot for a retro striker. Right under the spot where the hiss tanks go. Might just be a place holder for something but still maybe something.
Edit: Here is the picture.

As for Salvo, he is a good figure, but for me, it's a matter of accessibility. He was pricey enough when released, let alone trying to track him down on the aftermarket. Also, at a glance, those legs are just all wrong. Never had one in hand, but in all of the pics I've seen, his knees are always a bit bent. |
