But this figure will not fit well in the ONE Joe vehicle released.
Fixed arms. Ahem, fixed like a good pair of rabbit ear antennas on a 1970s television set. Never mind we have HD clarity available on Smart TVs.

Eh, solid stool is better than diarrhea. At least it's not the ones with "wrist" articulation in the middle of the forearms.

Meh. Why have sexy cleavage Lady Jay on the card art but puritan Lady Jay in package? They have a Cleavage Jay buck.

Pass on screaming Duke

Maybe a buy on CC. I'm pretty happy with the CC's I have.

Biggest disappointment is still no Cobra Troopers or Vipers. Where are the goddamned army builders? There should be one in every wave.

I've yet to see anything from the previous waves in a store. So, should I even care?

It's like army builders. Really want those? Scalpers aren't over charging enough for the characters? SUPER SCARCE COBRA TROOPER ARMY BUILDER $45 MOC. *Meanwhile on Instascam...gram*, "Yo, I bought 12 Cobra troopers to trade."

I had interest in Ultimate CC, but that's not quite him...no hooded head, either. And I understand he's tall even for modern.

I didn't care to begin with having little to no interest in that style anymore, not because of 6" but because the vintage o-ring style is my game. I may pick up the Lady Jaye if I ever see it, but being that I've never seen any of them in the store, I probably won't. heh

on edit, maybe duke is my fault. Someone at Hasbro heard me say I wanted o-ring figures and must have thought I said o-face.

Hey mustache. Do you see the results of this after just 2 days. Do you see how your core fan base is disappointed in your Duke re-use? You just damaged Joe. We aren't going to buy it. Parents won't buy it as they can get something that looks the same at the Dollar store. Kids won't buy it as he's not the same quality as your W1 SE and SS figures. You really hurt the brand with this laziness.

You smell what I'm stepping in here. Its one thing to have a few scattered posts on a couple threads, entirely another to have hard numbers.

The best part is the fact that 'tankers that rarely post anymore are submitting their votes.

Thanks for bumping this.

Everyone- vote!

Lurkers- sign up and vote!

Lady Jaye looks cool.

Cobra Commander looks good. I just don't need him as I have other ME versions. (v36 from the DVD Battle Packs with the chrome face plate.)

Duke is ok. As many people have pointed out, there could have been better versions. The thing that really gets me with Duke is: If they're going to use that version and include the harness, why can't they include the JUMP jet pack like in previous releases?

The large empty bubble looks so much better that some old jet pack.
