Does anyone have any pictures on what the new Beachhead is gonna look like?
Also I don't see the problem with Firefly. The guys costume changes all the time. As far as I'm concerned he's perfect the way he is. Either I love these figures. I would also love to have the cash to spend on them. Well at least I can window shop and day dream. |

Very glad Flint is next and not Beachhead. Not that I dislike Beachhead by any means, but Flint should be first.
Well, I like his new look, but the camo balaclava is pretty iconic. I can only think that the look would be improved by this.

Also it might be a smart move on there part if they gave you both heads in the package. That way we could choose the camo or plain mask. All there units would sell and all the customers would be happy. |

[QUOTE]
Question: "Why was the GI Joe Firefly 12-inch figure made so different from the concept artwork we were shown at SDCC? The concept art looked like a great interpretation of the character. A perfect mix of his traditional look and some modern updates. But the actual figure seem completely different. His mask doesn’t even feature the classic camo pattern, and the rest of his clothing is very different from the concept artwork as well. Can we expect any tweaks to this figure between now and production? At the very least a camo pattern to his mask? -AND- I think the upcoming GI Joe Firefly is pretty impressive. But I was wondering why the drastic change from the production art shown at SDCC 2009. Also, PLEASE PLEASE reconsider painting Firefly’s mask camo colors. Keep up the great work, YO JOE! -and- There are many of us wondering if we are going to get a camo head with your current Firefly in the GI Joe 12″ series? If not, will a classic version be issued down the line?" Answer: "Our development team works hard to find a balance between classic Joe designs and modern practical real-world gear so that the 12-inch figures are immediately recognizable as their source characters but feature as much of the gear that a real-world operative of their type might actually use. We did read the feedback to the Firefly figure reveal and do see that many wish that the facemask could be painted in camo colors. We were hesitant to paint it in camo due to production paint limitations, but we are attempting to turn-out a sample with painted camo to see if the effect looks good enough to warrant including a second portrait in the package. Stay tuned - we’ll have an update for you before Firefly ships." [QUOTE] With Firefly, his original look, still remains functional & practical today. I don't see why they had to make such a drastic change. Duke looks like Duke with some added gear to his kit, (knee pads, goggles, etc,) Firefly looked perfect with the concept art. I hope they release a uniform & web gear change for him somewhere down the line.
