Good work, but I would like to see cyborg mods to the face. RoboJoe is one of those "We will build him better, stronger, faster" stories, and so not showing the facial damage kind of robs him of his backstory.

I know that it could be skin grafts, or really good skin replacements or something, but the Cyborg thig was always a huge part of the character for me - to the point where I actually bought the ugly ass orange speckled mess.

Adding the War Machine gun to a backpack like that is brilliant. I'll be stealing this idea for sure.

I do agree with raptor about his face. He needs something more than just the robot arms. Maybe even something as simple as an eye implant.

Given how much the exposed face reminds me of Peter Weller as Robocop, I really don't need any extra metal bits on his face to get the cyborg vibe. But, some thinned down yellow paint could be used to give the visor/goggles a lit up optics look.

Very nice and different take on Robo-JOE. I always liked the concept behind him even though his figure was pretty weak and oddly colored. However, I'm on the fence about whether or not I think he needs cyborg parts on his face or not. When I first saw it I did, but reading the discussion about it I'm not sure what I think about that being 100% necessary. The obvious cyborg nature of the original's face is what really drew me to him and I kind of miss that here. I think the only reason I'd like to see it is that it would make the head a little more different from the Renegades Cobra Trooper, which I think would benefit it a little.

I'd like to see the mechanical parts painted in olive drab, just to look a little different from the BAT. But this is a phenomenal design that Hasbro should be making.
