I'm just curious to know what webgear the upcoming SE is supposed to be wearing. Not the exact manufacturer from whom it's been copied, but rather what it's supposed to do.
It looks to me like the straps would be rather painful if used as a climbing/parachute rig. Apparently the 3 3/4 version takes inspiration from the Sideshow SE (and it looks very similar), so I've added a link to a thread here with some images: http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...ic-thread.html Any thoughts? |

In my opinion, it looks like from the belt up is supposed to mimic the 982 Snak Eyes harness. The bottom looks like a cheap elastic supposed to represent a rappeling harness.

that's kind of what I was thinking. I'm not a big fan of this but then again I'm just one person.

I'd been wondering about this too, seems like would be hard on that certain area with the harness designed like it is there.

Thanks chaps. So taking the idea of a rappelling harness, it looks like it might be along these lines: $64.98 30RH00BK BlackHawk Tactical Rappelling Harness 8415-01-505-9534 - Tactical Gear at Patriot Outfitters
but they've messed up the back by having the two straps join in the centre rather than towards the outside of the waist (i.e. so you would be able to sit your arse on the loops rather than your family jewels) |

The only tweak I would make on this figure is the shoulder knife. After that I will be purchasing two.

the harness is the weak point of the figure for sure. luckily, the actual figure is rad and webgear is easily fix/changeable.

I freaking hate soft-goods on my action figures. Always ruins the look.
Hopefully they won't have soft goods on the actual figure. If they do, I'll just replace it with a painted Paratrooper harness.
