7. Pinned arms kinda bug me here because we got nipples instead of replacing these bare/muscle arms that's we are gonna see reused a few more times (Gnawgahyde, TF Roadblock, and Marauders Slaughter).
Also would've like a pair of closed fists with the tape instead of the alternate head.

I was more excited for this figure before I had it in hand. I like the concept and the execution but it feels like it is missing something. I originally defended leaving out the punching bag, but now I think I was wrong and the figure could have used at least one more accessory. I also would have liked to see them include some brass knuckles (or alternate brass knuckled hands) to give him a little more heft in an actual fight.
I was also surprised we didn't get pinless-- seems like a missed opportunity. He's a good figure with some fun details, but given the lack of an obvious combat role or nostlagia attachment from a toy or cartoon for me, I don't see him as an "essential" in my display. Solid 6. |

10 - this one is everything I needed it to be. I'm fine with no punching bag.

Finally got all of my Wave 15 figures yesterday and I am super impressed with Big Boa! This guys is a beast! I don't think his helmet is too small but I think I would have preferred his punching bag over the alternate head. You can use retro Gung-Ho hands on him too if you want him to have plain, bare heads. The Sgt. Slaughter hands also work on him, though I noticed the fists are slightly loose (they fit, but are not snug. Easy to fix with a little blu tac). I'm glad the pins present in his arms don't really bother like I know they do for others on here, but it would have been nice to get some new arms.
The dumbbells he comes with are really well done too.

My rating.
10/10 As perfect as Hasbro will give us. Has lame nipples. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz But if you don't like the Pinned arms instead of Pinless and the body puts you off. 8/10???? If you hate the fact this figure only comes with boxing gloves and Dumb bells. 6/10 If you really hate Big Boa 4---0/10

I gave Boa's helmet a few additional paint apps. Made the mask silver all the way to the vents on the side, painted the chin edge of the mask breather, the ridge just below his eye visor, the little box just above his brow and below the first spike and the little module dial on the back of his helmet.
Was contemplating repainting the breathing tube all silver, but I think I may like it black so there is some contrast. The breathing tube on the new one looks like it's made of a durable carbon fiber material which would be black instead of the o-ring's tube which looked like it was made of metal chrome.

I gave him an 8. My figure was pretty sturdy, with no looseness, so that's good. The accessories are also pretty cool, but I took off a point for giving him boxing gloves that are separate hands, instead of something that slips over his actual hands. I would have preferred they did that, and also gave him a set of closed, wrapped fist hands.
Also took off a point for lack of punching bag and more training equipment. I would have preferred Big Boa be a deluxe, with a full size punching bag and maybe a barbell (or an EZ curl bar), with some weight plates.
