Viperskingdom. Give the guy credit he's a good inside man for a hiest. Why doesn't he work for Apple or Samsung and liberate that shit early?

That's true. Are these TRU exclusives again?

I went by TRU over the weekend on a lark and they had a ton of 2-packs sitting around for like $8.99 and then had single pack PoC figures (arctic CC) for $9.99.. TRU.. *shakes head*

And was that stupid snow vehicle thing really $40 retail? What a ridiculous price.

They're not terrible looking, better than most of the 2 packs from last year. I hate to say it, but I kind of want them to do a classic Duke at some point. They can never get his classic look quite right.

Those CGs and the Alley Vipers would be so much better with some different legs. Not crazy about the CG helmet either, but the 25th wasn't any better.

Blow Torch and Cock Master shouldn't have even been an option. I don't give a fuck how many the man-children claimed they were gonna buy. They were dead weight slot-wasters back in PoC and they're the same now.

They could have at least spit those two losers up, but nooooo, they kept them together to form a black hole of suckitude.

I'd rather they keep them together. Neither of them would have any use at all otherwise. Not for parts or trade or even saleable.

Is no one remotely exited about Gung Ho ? And why did they have to paint him turquoise ?
Modern figs with classic neon colors don't flipping work ! Stop it already !!!

He's the only one really worth a damn. I've got to find him some good accessories, and definitely repaint his ass to look a little more early '70s.

If they don't completely botch it I'll buy more than one.

Though I hope it's just the lighting and he looks more like the concept case figure.

Yeah, I wanna think it's the picture saturation, but the red on the packaging isn't super vibrant. Unless someone specifically altered just G-Hs colors, that's probably pretty close to the actual product.

No one would have went to that much trouble...I bet it's that bright.

EDIT - From Viperskingdom..listed as Shipwreck. pre-painted sample without camo, but the color is bright.

The head on the vault figure is way better.

Everyone was going ape shit over finally getting the hung-go but it doesn't appear to be in any way as good as the vault figure.

Hmmm...looks like it's somewhere in between the concept and the packaged sample color wise. Like it's more vivid than the concept figure, but lighter in color than the packaged sample.

Wonder if the head is the same, but has a bad eye paint job and is cast plastic instead of painted.

Also...

"Do you work out, bro?"

"Yeah, that's like, all I do."

That's the vault head, the eyes are just fucked over by the paint.

to me the cheeks look a little different and the chin looks pointer in the production pic and the hat looks like it sits higher...unless they just didn't push it down far enough.

Speaking of that hat! Is it removable?
