No joke, psyche-out rocks, as does crystal ball, psychological warfare,while not involving big guns,equally cool. I even hope he comes with his little iron with the satelite dish on it

I think Shockwave, Lt. Falcon, and Tunnel Rat would be the coolest to remake...Do you think it would be cool to add an automatic shotgun to Shockwave's accessories because he was the SWAT's first man in? How about Tunnel Rat with working flashlights?
Apparently, I've done too much opinion expressing on hisstank.com already, so what do you guys think? Quote:

1.Shockwave 2.Storm shadow v2 3.Falcon 4.tunnel rat 5.Jinx 6.Iron grenadier destro 7.Iron Grenadier 8.Night viper 9.Crimson Guard Immortal 10.Night Creepers 11.Snake eyes v3 12.Techno viper 13.Alley viper 14.Roadblock v4 These are and have been the most popular and valuable monetarily figures of the line if you don't know this just try to buy a complete of 2/3's of these and it will set you back 15 to 20 dollars. So for those of you who think the first part of the line is best, wroooooooooooong, there are many fabulous figures throughout the entire run of the line that many of us want remade in 25th style. |

If they outifitted and gave them equipment relevent to their jobs. The Mindbender with the vials, the laptop, and pistols wasn't bad. Psych-Out could get a backpack that houses a laptop, a satelite hookup, and a Firefly style phone. Then just give him some type of weapon he can holster and he's off to the races.
I'm not in the military, but most psychological warfare people are behind the front lines, correct? Quote:

hope you are being sarcastic because i can't wait for jinx and covergirl as well as zarana, hopefully we get a zanya figure as well. I don't think we need any new female characters other than zanya but we sure do need 25th versions of the old one's.

The thing is, I totally disregarded his psychological warfare gig (though I realize now that psychological warfare is a powerful tool, and that having a counselor/psychologist as an active member of a SpecForce team is actually a good idea that has happened in RL) and pretended that his little hand-held radar thingamabob was actually some sort of target designator for orbital laser artillery. Really. I think that's pretty imaginative for a 9 year old, if I do say so myself. Quote:

and the same, Crystal ball might be interesting as a character, but i really found the figure just far to silly. (even as a kid) Quote:

But, it is a finite line, so i try and be realistic about expectations, and 3 female characters isn't bad.
