But why does Iron Man look so short?

The gum bubble accessory just goes onto the microphone mouthpiece. From certain angles, it looks like his bubble-gum. From others, it looks silly. Breaker is still cool though.

I was rooting through my accesory baggie and found several brown and green accesory pack helmets. None of them really fit any figure well, new or old. Rats.

Well, I ordered from Alyosha tonight. I can't wait to get the helmets and gear for the convention figures. Problem is, I won't see everything together until Christmas. Now I wish I had a way to outfit the comic-pack figures well. I have Breaker, Hawk, Stalker, Steeler, and Clutch. I am awaiting Zap, Short-Fuze, and Rock n' Roll from eBay. I would like to give Hawk, Zap, and Short-Fuze a helmet with visor. I would like to give Breaker a helmet with headset. I would also like to get an extra Breaker and make him Grunt, perhaps with a comic-pack 4 Grunt head. This picture has sort of inspired me: http://www.joebattlelines.com/m6d/index.html

Actually, Marvel finally updated his hair color somewhere around issue #128 or so. Ah, until issue 155, the artwork, or coloring was pretty poor in the last fifty issues or so. I would not trust coloring errors in a comic. Besides, General Hollingsworth, an African-American was coloring Caucasian in one issue in the 50s. That was when the artwork was good.

Is there a place to easily find clear visors to replace or modify my existing G.I. Joes. I saw Alyosha's wonderful helmet-visor and weapon combinations for this year's convention exclusive Zap and Flash. I may get the set but $25 seems like a lot. Well, I figured I could find similar 1982-1983 style helmets and visors and get the helmets in a dark green for some of the comic-pack figures. I figured (hoped) the helmets would fit on the comic-pack Zap and Short-Fuze since the Zap head is the same (right?) and Short-Fuze's head seemed small. Also, I just got a 1982-1983 Short-Fuze off eBay that was missing the visor. I also have a 1982-1983 Zap and he would look better with a visor. I would like real accessories but I would accept repro accessories because I will never pass these off as legit because I don't sell anything and will keep these figure until I die. One last thing. I remember the accessory packs having dark green weapons. Did they ever have dark-green helmets? If so, how close to the comic-pack Joe's dark green?

Very cool. Yours is fantastic. It looks production quality. Hasbro could do this figure no problem.

Both are pass.

I want another AWE Striker plus Crank Case looks mostly original. The chest and head look new. I also want Grandslam but could careless about another SHARC. I wish they would have redone the JUMP set (not just the pack) instead.

For me, Hawk is only figure in wave 1 worth getting. Funny, I thought the head sculpt for Hawk really captured the Herb Trimpe version of Colonel Abernathy quite well. Plus, the helmet and visor kick arse.

xhairs, these are your best yet. You managed to update the figures yet still keep that A Real American Hero color scheme and flair. Very good. The paint looks Hasbro like which is what I think makes a good custom for this line.

I think Hasbro will handle it like Marvel Legends. The movie figures will exist side by side with the original-design figures.
