They should have molded a new head for Leatherneck.

Yup. I don't think Leatherneck has gotten a new head yet .Is this the final product?

leatherneck looks great, I was hoping they'd do something like this for him.
and...the head looks way better as Leatherneck than it does for Gung Ho |

does the club even have the ability to tool new heads or are they only allowed at certain tools? i.e. all the straight repainted parts. and if this is the case is everyone expecting a new sparta head before hasbro has had it's own chance at selling this. really not trying to be a bummer about it. always seems like kitbash repaints.
nope, but yours would still be better than what they'll give us, regardless. the thing that kills me about all the club exclusives is seaming lack of details, like all the weapons being plain grey for the most part. shrugging emoticon. Last edited by Dragasses; 12-27-2010 at 06:51 PM.. |

I agree that the head is more Leatherneck then Gung-Ho even though it was used for Gung-Ho first. Looks better as Leatherneck.
I actually wish they had just used the body from the 25th/RoC Leatherneck and just went with the '86 colors since the 25th was the original Mission Brazil colors. Not as big a fan of the parts choice for this. I like it, but I would have liked a simple repaint better I think. LOVING the Cobra Trooper. I hope this is the troop builder in the set.

I just compared the cancelled roc leatherneck, the club one, and the original 86 version. The roc version was a darker green than the 86. And the camo was browner than the reddish brown of the original. It really looks like the club tried to remedy that with more accuracy. Their green is lighter and their camo is more red/brown. I know a lot of people didn't like the buzzer torso and webgear used on the 25th and roc leatherneck, so they attempted to rectify that also.
