Recondo=Gnawgahyde
« on: January 26, 2011, 10:24:42 AM »
Who else thinks that Recondo (wave 2) was supposed to be Gnawgahyde?? He has the weapons (same type of rifle, same hat, some bear traps), he looks like a poacher! heck, his head doesn't even look like Recondo..
What do you think?

I was wondering the samething.  I think the bear traps is what does not belong with the Recondo figure.

Huh. I never thought of that. Makes more sense then calling him Recondo. I have that figure and I hate it. Too much weird gear and it all keeps falling off, including the hat.

Maybe if he was repainted as Gnawgahyde and didn't have the back pack with those silly solar powered looking fins on it then I might like it a bit more.

Yeah he is a great example of how Hasbro's new love for accessories can go wrong.  I lone the backpack and bear trap, but the hat, mask and others either don't fit, or are out of whack with the figure.

He is definitely an easy remake into Gnawgahyde.  One that I would buy without question.

Never thought of that but now that you mention it, it makes sense.

Here's some comparison pics... he looks like a mix-match between the two of 'em IMO..

Yep, it is Gnawgahyde, not Recondo!

I also think the guys at Hasbro must be Call of Duty fans. Funny how the tomahawks were one of the more anticipated new weapons from CoD Black Ops when Treyarch first released the teaser trailers months and months ago and Recondohyde here has two of them and they look exactly the same.

Ditto here. Now that its mentioned, I can totally see him as Gnawgahyde.
