Muskrat's head looks like Law which is fine because its a good one. Never mind,it's Duke.
I always thought Sgt. Barnes would be a good inspiration for a Muskrat update.

PO actually looks pretty cool...best so far IMHO...
And MR could be cool if it wasn't for that awful pearly blue...WTH?...I dig the use of that vest for him...

I think it would be pretty sweet as a repaint. Never cared for night force repaints except for crazy legs, light foot, and psyche out but that's because of the outlandish colors of the originals.
I know, I would've been fine with a green or brown vest/hat. Or fuck, even a navy blue. That sparkly metallic blue is just bad, but I like the parts and whatnot aside from that. To be honest, I am not such a diehard fan of the original Muskrat, and would prefer a different shade of green, or maybe even 2-toned vest/pants. This one's pretty decent, though.
I even kind of like Psyche-Out, and I don't give a damn about him. The new head adds a lot to him, though.
I know. I don't want to open my Cobra Island 7-pack but I know like a fat guy on a diet, I'll cake.. I mean "cave"
We could ask Jesse to cast one? I have that vest from the ROC red repaint of the Lamprey.
That is, after he gets Obi's orders out the door!

I honestly thought the same thing for years. Always thought the bandanna'd head would be a great headsculpt for Muskrat.
I was hoping for black, dark greens, dark blues and gray when it was first announced. I'm let down.
darker colors=more factory dye=more $$$$=more excuses for the club to force every Joe collector, not living with his parents, to have to refi.
I like how Hasbro slams us with eye raping figures, and then presents these later, mediocre figures (mediocre because of the light shinny blue) and everyone is all like "hey that's not so bad!". Hasbro is getting clever, in a retarded way.
I so far have only seen one figure so far I do like. Even then it would take some serious painting over the mentioned blue.
That's actually what I thought they'd do...never crossed my mind that they'd do anything other than...and then this stupid a$$ metallic blue?...kinda glad though...I'm not even close to being on the fence...they are all either meh or worse (so far)
roposetoast:
All that "sonic spy" gear and shit will not be used on him. He'll get a better vest and load-out and be just fine.
So far I like the headsculpts and some of the ideas, and that's about it. I think I'll just be waiting for someone to cast the heads and doing my own, unless the rest of the figures are knockouts.
Hasbro, not the club, was the one who went from the fan-fucking-tastic PoC line to the asstastic Retaliation line for no explicable reason.
I'd honestly thought they were on the right track, from 25th -> Resolute -> RoC -> PoC ->.. then they went full retard.
