yeah i was bummed to find out that the armor cobbra commander has beach heads (head). i love the new joes but i am also let down in the fact that almost everybody shares some kind of bodypart with another. i feel as if they traded detail in along with quality. (does anyone feel the same?)

Not me. Most the Joes from the 80's shared parts too. Often times a LOT more parts then the ones do now.

As has been said, the 80's Joes used a lot of parts swapping too. Heck, the O13 had what? Four different heads (including Snake Eyes) and two different bodies? These figures manage to make almost every character look unique and still get a lot of efficiency from the molds.

i have to admit....i dont easily notice any of this. and my eye for small details is usually pretty acute.
flash/grand slam...yeah, thats obvious. but usually i either have to really stare at figs with shared pieces, or, read about it first. heck... the only reason i realized that crankcase's uppers are shared with shipwreck, is cuz of those popeye forearms. and the legs i noticed cuz the HISS trooper was sitting right next to crankcase on my desk. as far as the head, i think thats breaker, all i see with breaker is two eyes and that bubble! |
