Am I the only one who kinda wants the 12" Green Beret? If you can find someone who wants the Land Adventurer, there might be a three way split opportunity here

Agreed. Erik Arana of Boss Fight Studio mentioned on Facebook that Dave Kunitz is once again the inspiration for the Ozone head sculpt. It does look great and definitely works for Ozone, but it looks almost spot on for Joe Colton from issue #86 and would have been much better than the Adventure Team head.

Thank Bob they pulled Prof X from MU production so they could run off a handful of Colton figs. Boy, that Hasbro company sure knows how to rake in the cash.

You know who else Ozone looks like? Me! I was more or less indifferent to the figure, but now I'm very anxious to get one. And let that be a lesson to toy companies everywhere: if you want my business, appeal to my vanity!

The fact that Prof X was pulled from MU production - to get another run of him for those that couldn't find him the first time around or customizers wanting more, or used to make Coulson, or Osborn, or Stark, or any other such suited character - in order to make a suited version of 'original' GIJoe Joe Colton as he appeared in issue 75 of the comic sold only via the GI Joe Collector's Club; tells me Hasbro has gone completely clownshoes.

Because, when I think '50th Anniversary of America's Fighting Man GI Joe', I think of a guy in a three-piece business suit.

you and me both man! lol.

Also, I too agree that head woulda been a perfect Colton.

Also, Also, I agree with AV that if Prof X was pulled for that reason (no idea if true or not) that would be ridiculous.

From this angle? Why the dress shoes and bat-a-rang?

Because you want to look your best when fighting superstitious, cowardly zombies.

Non-removable helmet? BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!

How much have we been told about the limited lifespan of molds, and Colton's now the 4th fig done off this buck? Hasbro apparently thinks Colton will be more profitable than Coulson/Osborn/Stark, or hasn't thought of doing them. Either option = CLOWNSHOES.

There's no point in survival, if you can't survive with stylish footwear.

Bigger issue for me is the snow goggles. I know it's not on point, but I keep hearing in my head - 'I wear my snow goggles at night, so I can so I can...'
