I love this figure! But I caught my kid eyeballing it when it got delivered so I let him have it and now I am waiting on Amazon to ship another for myself.

I would love to give the figure a 10 for design, but I have a massive problem with a production decision that was made. Since I don't see anyone mentioning it I'm not going to point it out. If it's not bothering you, good.
It took the whole figure down to a 6 for me. |

I gave him a 10. It took me awhile before I opened him up and had him sitting on the shelf for a bit before I decided to rate him. I think he looks perfect imo. I think I would have preferred his original backpack or something similar, but that's my only gripe and its a very minor one as I don't even have him displayed with it. I love the deco on his swords and nunchucks. I have him displayed with one of his nunchucks and love how it looks. It's just bendy enough to be able to do some poses and to me looks and feels better than the ones that did come with Nunchuck. Greatly appreciate both head sculpts, even if the second one is subtle, but feel it's done is a way that adds to the character. Multiple hand options help out a lot as well.

what's up with the weird chocolate bar accessory? I suppose Quick Quick was eating a candy bar in an episode of the old GI Joe cartoon?

I cannot abide the production stamps on his thighs. It's infuriating. It's not an error, it's not a production oopsie; everyone responsible for approving these things at Hasbro said, "Yeah, those are fine there." I'm pretty easygoing about figures in general, but something like that - so clearly visible right on the front of the figure - destroys the aesthetics. I'm still absolutely flabbergasted that the figure was released like that. He might as well have another face on his stomach. FALCON'S FACE, EVEN. That's how off-putting those are to me. Okay, not that bad, but PRETTY BAD. Someone speculated it was so they could sculpt the bottom of the bare feet, but there's a big, huge production stamp on his left foot, too. So that didn't work out. I would much rather he have had weird, flat feet than completely visible stamps on his thighs. Thank you for your time. I apologize for bringing any of this to anyone's attention.😂 |

There's nothing really "wrong" with this figure, exactly, but the fact that he's just ARAH Quick Kick, with the only update being some fancy patterning on the legs, annoys me. He looks weird next to my other figures, like someone from a nearby costume party wandered into a group of soldiers. I wanted a modernized version of him, and we got the Retro version in the mainline instead.
Also annoyed by the accessories. Like, of all the people to give an alternate head, and it's not even that different from his other head. And his backpack I guess is just being held in place by his sash? Don't think the throwing stars look good either. At least he has lots of alt hands. Yeah, I'm not a fan of this one. No QC issues, posability is good, I can't really go lower than a 7, but I could nitpick this figure to death. |

Yeah, in the cartoon, he's an actor and was doing a commercial for Frozen Fudgy Bars, when he first met the Joes.

Pros:
I like it way too much. Looks good. Cons: Ah Nipples. He comes with very few accessories. Besides his nipples. *Rating 9/10 *Note: The production stamps are indeed on the inner Thighs. You can see this on the Promo pics to confirm. This is not great but it's what I expect from the Hasbro Half ass.
