These are amazing to me. I don't collect Super 7 but I could analyze the recolor patterns all afternoon. And my wife has already heard some of it. The BAT is top-notch. The red works well despite being a minor PP color originally. The Destro is rocking a PP Crimson Guard shirt and a PP Copperhead pants combo. Someone on the design team said "he's already extravagant, just do that even more." Cobra Commander is reasonable... I think the yellow is used wrong. I'd have preferred to see him with more of a Crimson Guard pattern than the yellow helmet. Baroness is logical, and fits in well. That red piping looks great on her. Duke's TF pattern is traditional. The Trooper is wisely understated as well. These are good choices. Plus if someone is army building greenshirts then this doesn't even really have to be TF. Scarlett is also logical. They could have gone more silly with her but wisely restrained themselves. This Snake-Eyes is ridiculous and that's okay. He's like TF Blizzard. They could have done it like TF Jinx, which is arguably superior to the red original, but they chose Snake-Eyes and Destro to just make super crazy. That's part of the fun of it. And with all that radar reflective material in his outfit, nobody will ever see Destro coming.

Destro is straight up a circus clown.
Baroness they played it conservatively. CC might've been better if switched red and yellow. BAT is good, improved upon Classified's "barely Python Patrol" release. But why don't the greys here all match? I feel Scarlett could've been more interesting. She sort of emulates TF Tripwire's colors. That's an odd move. Snake-Eyes in yellow? Not something Hasbro would've done. Maybe a foreign licensee. Green shirt is boring. If these were o-rings, yeah, I'd get them. HA-HA! |

Scarlett might have made more sense in TF Jinx's colors.
Instead she looks like she's trying out for Flintstones. |

Snake Eyes, is kinda cool. All yellow, he reminds me of a Fisher-Price figure from the 80's.
