All of the ST's come with a stun gun, right? So why do they need the shock batons as well? And why are there two batons connected like nunchuks, would one be enough? Sure would be easier to handle.

And their shields, shouldn't they be black with some sort of vision slit in them?

Unless they are made out of some sort of transparent hyperalloy.

They're riot shields, not ballistic shields. Different animals.

The taser gives them a little more range, and i don't think I've ever heard of stun batons set up like nunchaku. I hazard it's made up Hasbro shit.

Personally, I just tossed the batons into my box'o'miscellany and left 'em in there. I do wish there was a holster for the taser.

Most of my ST accessories haven't left the card. No need for the non-lethal weapons, and the new sculpt era shotgun is boring.

A tactical assault unit with riot shields?

Someone didn't think that through.

The point of the STs I think, was to design something that could fill multiple roles. Assault, crowd control, etc.

Essentially.

It takes all of 15 minutes to do a fast and dirty riot shield conversion.

They're definitely my Cobra ass-kickers of choice.
