Bazooka is an awesome figure and I think it's a really odd criticism to say that he was made "too well" and should have just been another cheapo kit-bash. It also sends a terrible message to Hasbro that we're willing to settle for substandard figures. In a perfect world, EVERY figure should utilize 100% original parts and there should be no kit-bashing whatsoever. So I think Hasbro should be applauded whenever they go the extra mile for a figure, not criticized.
And the figure is not as tall as the others, its significantly taller and bigger than the rest...put that guy next to an SE and a Roadblock and tell me he isnt too big. Its a good figure, please don't think I'm saying its bad. I just dont understand it. |

You're preaching to the choir, every figure should have its own head...then again, I'm currently painting a Snow Job head to put on my Breaker..

Well, I have no problem with customizers reusing heads, but customizers in general are only making figures for themselves or a few of their friends. Hasbro is a multi-billion dollar corporation so they have no excuse for using one head sculpt for multiple characters.

he's pretty good, but i don't like the overly bulky look and lack of double jointed knees. His accessories and deco are ace!

Nice piccies. Good to see the missiles in his backpack properly at last, well done!
Another great wave 9 figure, with mine currently winging his way across the Atlantic to me. Not too sure about the helmet strap - Why recreate something that would be so small at this scale? - but overall, still eminently 'have-able'!!

My opinion as a customizer is that a new body type is always welcome. I collect Cobras and make Cobras in my customs. So while I don't care for "Bazooka", I do like the idea of having a large brawny body type. I will probably pick a couple of these up just for fodder.
