Featured in the upcoming EA Sports video game and an IDW comic issue, Agent Helix is the covert operations officer for the G.I. Joe team. Helix wears a gray and yellow outfit with black straps, kneepads, boots, and gloves. She also wears what looks like a black and gray corset. She has a belt with several silver compartments and a pair of binoculars. Helix’s hair is black with many bleached stripes. This figure comes with two larger, scoped pistols, a rifle (HK G11, as noted by several Tank members), a long knife, and a spring-loaded missile launcher with a net attachment.
As soon as I saw Helix in the package, I knew I was going to like this figure. The main reason was that the paint job on the eyes was not applied as seen on the figure in early release photos—the one I received was much better. Even beyond that, this is a great figure. As with the other ROC figures I have purchased, this is a sturdy figure with good articulation and cleanly applied paint. The G.I. Joe team needs more female characters, and this figure is a welcome addition. The only qualms I have are the mid-forearm joints (not bad, but I prefer wrist articulation) and some difficulty in getting the hands to hold weapons (again, not bad, but could be better). Both of these are small things, and I can easily overlook them. The weapons are mediocre, although I do like the scoped pictols—I only wish they were black instead of gray. Figure rating: 10 out of 10

Helix is one of the few RoC figures that I am REALLY looking forward to. I want to find her, but no luck so far.
I find it funny that one of the coolest looking waves (Helix, Flash, The Doctor) has proved to be the rarest thus far. Tom

Know how I know this? Because you posted a declassified flyer which was meant for fun as a NEWS ITEM. No one would ever tell you anything because the VERY FIRST THING you would do is post it here. Probably incorrectly. |

I like everything about this figure except the yellow. I'd like to have seen that in a more "military/secret agent/don't shoot me" color.
I think she's got one of the coolest hairsculpts i've seen on a female 3-3/4" figure.
