So, anyone that's been collecting Joes more than 5 minutes (or isn't a complete retard) knows that there have been some Joes with multiple versions.
Now, sometimes the v.1 gets it right (Footloose, Night Viper), but there are a number of occasions where the 2nd or further versions is better.
Cases in point, personally:
Alley Viper v.2. The predatory feline visor, the yellow jacket (street lamp camo, i call it) paint scheme, just all around better. Sure, the shield isn't as aggressive (but looks great painted like the card art) and he isn't as bulky in the torso, but all around an improvement.
Mercer v.2. This thing just shits all over the v.1 Mercer, but never gets any love. No one does customs of him. Maybe they're all gay and are intimidated by the manly, Cold Slither-esque "i'll fucker your mother in the ass while your dad cries in the corner" facial hair?
Anyhoo, v.2 Mercer is on my To-Do list. I'm thinking 90% Viper parts, as he was an ex-Viper, dammit.
Zartan V.2. Nah, i'm bullshitin'. I didn't think Zartan could be made to suck more.
Personal thoughts?
