Cool headgear, but an easy pass for me. Grunt looks like he smelled something he didn't like.

The Crimson Viper is kinda boring but repainted troopers have always been a part of Joe and the Crimson Vipers aren't new or random. Also it depends on who their wave mates are as well. These just might be the filler figures in the wave.

hmm. well, Grunt IS the most notably boring original Joe, so I guess this is apt! I guess I'd like to see him with helmet on.

My hopes for yellow pants Grunt crushed by the inevitable reality of V1 version.
He does look good though. I’m glad they don’t seem to have expended much new tooling budget on him. Need that money invested elsewhere. Interesting that they included the Steel Brigade helmet.

Grunt's OK. Not crazy about the face, but need a better look at it. Covered helmet is a nice touch if they want to encourage army building. Looks like a repaint of the main head from the Steel Corps render.
Not interested in new Viper color, but somebody out there is probably all-in on the Crimson theme. Between it, Arctic BAT, PP CG, and Tele-Viper it looks like they're leaning hard into making stuff for builders this season. |

I?d totally be in the same boat if I hadn?t cut out virtually all my other hobby expenses (comic books, physical media purchases, and my pandemic-era Lego binge) and cut out a lot of other expenses now that I?m mostly working from home. But mostly I can justify it every time I see a new pair of shoes arrive for my wife in the Mail.

That's kind of you to say. Let me think about it - was just posting my gut reaction, so it may not be something I can articulate so easily. Running off for the weekend shortly but I'll think through and follow up on this.

My two cents. The o-ring ship has sailed. But worse than that our fellow fandom has failed us. We luke warm supported the Skystriker and although admittedly the 2-packs were overpriced, we weren't exactly beating down Hasbro's door for those either. However Classified is moving their financial needle thus that's where I'd wager the bulk of their support, development and design dollars will be allocated going forward. Do I know this to be fact? No, I don't. But it's at least a somewhat educated analysis.
