I don't know about you guys, but I hated Hi-Tech when he came out back in the new-scupt era. It wasnt his specialty that bugged me. If anything, I was stoked to have a hardcore R&D guy on the team. But the figure was just another shaggy blonde with headgear. I think the preponderance of blonde white guys on the Joe team just started to get to me about that time
To be fair, the G.I. Joe team seems to be one of the few places left in pop culture where being a blond white male doesn't automatically make you
evil.
Plus, I think they're actually outnumbered by the redheads on the team...
Also, I really,
really like Hi-Tech (albeit the Sigma 6 version of the character), oh and I happen to be blond myself. Could you tell?
All that aside though, I have a certain fondness for "lab rat" type characters, and it has to be said you've done your usual sterling work here. I can almost see this guy running for his life through Black Mesa's labs and corridors pursued by Xen critters and HECU Marines.
