I like that mold, though I prefer the Rapid Run figure it was later recolored into.

I liked the mold so much I fixed it, if you recall. Gave him knees and working, show-accurate elbows. I still have him out, actually, perched atop my bookshelf. And I'd totally second a new version, Sideways was always one of the coolest ideas to come out of Armada.

I'd say I wanted a new Smokescreen, but if they did make one, I probably wouldn't find it as inexplicably charming as the original, given how Hot Shot apparently turned out.

KICKER KICKER GET IN TFU KICKER!!

25th Anniversary GI Joe Kicker FTW.

I don't yet have Hot Shot but I can't imagine he's as bad as they say.

Hotshot is worse. Piece of utter doody.


I can actually get behind a 25A style Kicker. Maybe use a Fred Crimson Guard Head? What to do about the body and helmet?

Show me this thing (yojoe's turning up nothing, not that I'm an expert at navigating that site) and we shall see.
