Scarring on his face aside, I'd have to agree, plus, like, when have we ever seen him without the helmet on, much like Scrap Iron before him, that's staying on in displays.

Speaking of which, what is the story with Wild Weasel's scars, is that covered in the comics, because I don't remember it ever being touched in the cartoon...

I assume the broken visor and scars are in reference to Issue 34 when WW and Baroness took on Ace and Lady Jaye. Ended in a draw.

That and it does mention him being in an accident as well on the ARAH file-card .. to me he actually looks like classified tripwire a little bit ..


Also that was a great issue ..

One of the absolute best issues of the comic, and anyone who's only kind of familiar with Weasel should read it to get a sense for the character, especially if they bought into the Haslab.

Lenny said anyone is possible, though it requires more planning and obviously legal logistics like licensing rights and royalties and such to make guys like that possible.


- Regarding Road Pig's physique, I know Road Pig looked ripped in some of his comic appearances and his ME figure, but the guy has the word "pig" in his codename lol But besides that, his original card art and other promo art when he was new (Cobra accessory pack, the motorized pack, the GI Joe Magazine cover, etc.) depicted him as being big, but also not pure muscle and he looked more like an NFL offensive lineman, big WWF wrestler or an olympic powerlifter or strongman like others are saying. His original figure was very muscular and really big and beefy, bit he wasn't ripped like some figures were (Raptor and Big Boa and Steam-Roller were actually ripped).







This is what I plan on doing too. If he is impossible to get on Pulse, to ebay I go lol

I have to agree with you about Road Pig man... I will buy it but first need to get me Gnawgahyde. 😃💡👍

If you turn the rotors the way of the rattler wings how comparable are they in wingspan?

Now Wild Weasel has a fully revealed face that should make for a nice additional feature on any 12" figures or something Mezco might consider doing for the one-12 line or Hiya Toys (Lol) for the (mythical) 4" line.

Shame they didn't do Classified Copperhead with a revealed head though.

Does anyone have any advice on how to keep Torch's backpack on? Even when I perfectly line up his vest with the opening in his back it will not stay in. This is a problem I have had with several figures actually and was wondering if anyone had a solution. It's like for some figures the hole in the back is too big for the backpack peg and it just falls off if you even look at it.

Made an ammo drum clip for the Night Force RAM. Next up, making a pin for the wheel.

You might want to try stuffing some blue tac in the peg hole.
