Ice Sabre Repaint

Recommended Posts

According to the new product list over at cobraisland.com, Ice Sabre and Quickstrike were on the list to be redistributed. I thought this ment it would be the exact same paint job as last time, but after finding this preview figure on ebay, I'm starting to think otherwise. Could this be the new driver of the new Ice Sabre?

I'm sorry, but could someone explain the whole prodotype thing. I dont really understand. What is the difference between a prototype and a regular figure.

pro·to·type n.

 

1. An original type, form, or instance serving as a basis or standard for later stages.

 

2. An original, full-scale, and usually working model of a new product or new version of an existing product.

 

3. An early, typical example.

 

Biology. A form or species that serves as an original type or example.

 

 

 

It's basically the rough form of a future mold, that is molded in different (available) colors of plastic, just for sample sake, that may, or may not, be the original appearance of it when finally released. This Frostbite figure, may just be one of those prototypes made for an example, and not something that we'll see in distribution.

 

I hope it's just a prototype, as I think the color scheme is pretty ugly and inappropriate for winter.

Man...I hate seeing yellow on Joe items. Let the 90s RIP. The red looks kind of different/nice. It wouldn't surprise me if those two items were re-released as repaints. Maybe Toy Fair will have some possible answers to this question. That would suck for those people who never saw the Ice Sabre and Quickstrike due to poor distribution (if you can even call it distribution at all) if the items were repainted.

There is a thread over at yojoe.com, I think, that noticed that next to his seller ID, says he's "no longer a registered user".

 

Anyway, that yojoe thread was confident that he was mimidog before he was powerjedi and that he's already reregistered under another name.

Wonder why he keeps changing?

I would say that its a proto and not a real fig t all. Now the colors minus the yellow may end up happening. I still have my doubts that the re released IS and QS will be the original paint schemes.
