I never had the Brazil set as a kid, however when the Club revealed that they were doing a Mission Brazil set, I was stoked. I went through some back stabbing and drama trying to get my set. Well after paying over double what I was expecting too and getting screwed out of another $250, I finally have my set! Most of the cool figures already got a review and lets be honest, no chance in hell I could have done as good a review as Rex anyway. So I will do my best to complete some reviews on the remaining Joes and the Cobras over the next few weeks.
Mainframe is the least sexy figure of the set. He is a direct repaint of the Dataframe figure that we got in the 25th line that was packaged with Beachhead. Overall the figure captures the character very well. Mainframe is a bit older then the average Joe and they do there best to capture that in the head sculpt but it just comes out wrong. His face is too grumpy and a bit mangled. I will say that my club figure's face looks better then my comic pack version. The comic pack has more detail on his shirt and bandolier but hey, it's club figure, what do you expect? The main issue I have with the figure is his left hand. He has this open handed claw thing going on and the hand is worthless and a waste.
The computer specialist comes with a rifle, knife, portable computer with stands, 2 peg stand and a filecard. It would have been nice to have a removable helmet but no dice. His head can move left to right but has zero up and down movement. His arms and legs have a good range of motion and he can swivel at the chest. They did a fantastic job with the paint. My Mainframe doesn't have a single blemish, something I can't say for my Brazil Dial Tone
Overall, I'm satisfied with this figure. He's not the highlight of the set and can't hold a candle to Wet Suit or Claymore but he needed to be in the set and for what they had to work with, they did a good job.
