The 2018 FSS release. https://www.yojoe.com/action/16/outback9.shtml I literally copy and pasted the text from Yojoe.com: "STUART "OUTBACK" SELKIRK was an instructor at both the U.S. Army's Survival School and the Jungle Warfare Training Center. Unlike most people, he is not intimidated by the wilderness and the complete absence of human life for miles. Regardless of how inhospitable the location, he knows - like few others - how to physically and psychologically endure any conditions, over any distance and terrain, for as long as necessary, with however few resources are available. He believes that survival means you're part of the environment, not its adversary! STUART "OUTBACK" SELKIRK has been captured, cut off from civilization and forced to evade enemies in unknown territory, yet he has time and again proven himself to be the ultimate survivalist. Even when supplies and ammunition are depleted, he uses improvised munitions and other weapons of opportunity to outlast his opponents. After surviving COBRA's Zombie Initiative, he has re-joined the TIGER FORCE special operations unit for all European missions. " |

" I dug the zombie stuff, but think it's stupid AF to explain why Outback's hair was white (which isn't on the filecard anyway).

Personally, I don't really like zombies much (I guess I have "zombie fatigue") and never really needed an explanation, I just took the figure for what it is- a throwback to the UK/Euro Tiger Force Outback.

Isn't that what Lenny said it was when they announced him?

He may have, although with so much product coming out over the past year or so, and the inevitable scramble to get the POs in once they go live, the more trivial aspects of the streams don't stick with me. Hell, I forgot Chuckles had been name-dropped until Mordred mentioned it a few days back. Probably doesn't help that I'm usually multi-tasking on my PC as I "watch" them.

Whatever the bio, I have to admit, it's a nice figure. Since it wasn't part of the arah line here in the states when I was a kid, I wasn't gonna get it. But I saw a few at a local target, and I love buying Joe's in the wild, but it's also a great sculpt so I caved and got a second to open. Hopefully I'll get around to opening it lol

You can decide for yourself what "counts" and what doesn't for yourself. I like the idea. If we have Serpentor, Zombies can exist too. Last edited by TheSteelBrigade; 12-04-2022 at 11:31 PM.. |

Sigh, first I said the file card "seemed to suggest", I wasn't making a declaration. It's a possible explanation. The file card does say he survived the Cobra Zombie Initiative:
You can decide for yourself what "counts" and what doesn't for yourself. I like the idea. If we have Serpentor, Zombies can exist too. But I guess it all depends on which filecard. I just see him as a throwback to the vintage UK release (which I believe Lenny mentioned it was in the stream where he was announced). Nobody's saying you can't go with the ME figure, my point was I didn't see it on the filecard for the UK release since you didn't mention the 2018 until after my post, meaning your original post was ambiguous.
