2004. Convention figures as well as all TRU exclusives (except for drivers) are not in, they will get their own poll soon. Let everyone know which figure is your least favorite (and please explain why)! http://www.yojoe.com/action/04/ Tim 121RVC |

It was a tough choice between Pathfinder and Snake Eyes v20, but I went with Snake Eyes because it was yet another unneeded release of that mold with no changes. Pathfinder is not a bad figure on its own, the inclusion of his accessories this time partially makes up for the almost straight rerelease. |

Scarlett -- perhaps the most egregious example of the "too small head" syndrome that affected some of these traditional-style figures in the comic packs that were given new headsculpts that I think were designed more along the proportions of the newsculpts. Also, even though it was a brief actual scene in the comic book, to have an arctic-dressed Snake-Eyes and Kwinn in the set, with the arctic-looking cover of the comic book behind all of the figures, and Scarlett running around in her martial-arts jammies -- didn't quite work. |

Scarlett, Clutch, Steeler and Hawk were all fairly terrible with tiny heads on awkward bodies. I went with Scarlett for using the sunburned flesh tone, adding to already awful appearance, but Hawk is a close second due to his pinhead problem and that waist and legs combo they kept using which never meshed right with the 82' torso. If they'd kitbashed more (lady jaye legs, maybe?) and tossed in a soft goods parka, they might have pulled off an arctic Scarlett. Which would've been better than the martial arts competition look they tried. Or just dump Scarlett and make Arctic Breaker. Also, a comment on Grunt. Why make him in that red outfit when they didn't make Wingfield? So you've got Grunt infiltrating a group that doesn't exist in toy form at all. Should've kicked Snake-Eyes out and put in Wingfield. Also, gotten Zap's torso right. |

Clutch & Steeler's torso seems waay too big. |

Have you seen the pre-production Clutch head? Now THAT was small |
