Classified Leatherneck (#148)

Yeah, Repeater was definitely big in his card art.

If you do the barbell swap, sort of position his head high up and also pull his tactical belt down while pulling his drop down lega down and using the belt to sort of hide the gaps, he is tall enough for me.

Did the same thing for SAW-Viper with the legs and he is as tall as the IG and looks fine.

I don't really mind that he's not that big. Afterall, the original ARAH figures were mostly the same size except for the Fridge and Slaughter...lol.

7/10

Really good figure, no QC issues or anything with mine, I definitely like the new gun and improved rigidity of the plastic, he's just a lil on the boring side for me. But he looks great alongside the rest of the joes!

Bumping ol' Leatherwreck (high five to who gets this reference) for more votes.

I gave him a 9. Love everything about him except the paint apps for the grenades that are molded into his vest came out a little splotchy.

I gave him an 8. I really like this figure in hand. I would have preferred he was a bit bigger as that's how I imagined him, but my biggest issue is that his backpack won't fit. It only goes like a quarter way into his back no matter what I do. I do like his other accessories and think his head sculpt is very well done. Definitely a great addition to the collection and looks great next to the Marine sniper.

9. I really like him and the accessories. Love the new rifle. Height is not an issue, but that bracelet not being a full circle is a carpet monster dream come true. The glasses fit, but I don't think they were needed, and I can't figure out why, but I hate his hairstyle. It's a silly nitpick, but it just looks weird to me without his cover. I would have voted sooner, but he was stuck in DHL Hell forever with Zandar and SAW.

I gave him a 7. I think he is a solid figure but:
1. He has Army E-6 rank on his right shoulder, gold Marine rank on his collar (maybe E-7? why gold?).
2. His rifle is an improvement in the gummy department but the sculpting of it was blah. The carrying handle was too small, barrel was off, the 203 was off. His rifle was a classic back in the day. It would have been great to get a classic over/under (maybe even grey - maybe it comes with the retro carded figure?) that he had, or a modern version.

Great figure! I gave him a 10. Very nice accessories perfect head sculpt! Looks like Mr. Rudat, that is a plus. Feeling like a kid today

Now just waiting on Dail Tone, come on fedex.

He's perfectly average for the line. Nothing wrong but not a whole lot going on, either.
His size is fine - I know a few Marines, and none of them are particularly large fellows.
