In addition to it looking like a diaper, it looks the figure has his pants up really high (aka Steve Urkel style).  Still, this figure looks like a winner.

Perhaps it's a bullet proof diaper, which would litterally confer balls of steel to Steve Urkel  ;D.

That is a beautiful Red Shadows figure. Makes you wish that they'd not used the blowtorch guys and just done the set with all of these.

Still - hats off to them. 

:chicken:

I agree with you. I would rather have 12 of these guys but if I were Fun Publishing and heard that I would start banging my head off the way.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't I guess.

I agree on having 12 Red Shadows in the set.  The Red Torches figures would have made more sense as a two-pack.

Totally agree with you on this. Already just for the Red Shadows and Black Major, I find this set worth getting. While the torches are nice additions too, I wish there were just less of them and more Red Shadows.

It's a good thing they're not developping a storyline tied in with the set, involving something like Joes beeing extinct in the future, and General Flag IV resorting to DNA technology to clone 6 Warrant Officier Flints to be able to face the resurfacing Red Shadows menace  ;D. Now that would be something I hope never to see...

they should've produced 6 Shads and 6 Mutons or Skeletrons or Kraken. not the Torches.

For those who need a refresher:

Kraken http://www.bloodforthebaron.com/toys/00 ... index.html
Muton http://www.bloodforthebaron.com/toys/00 ... index.html
Skeletron http://www.bloodforthebaron.com/toys/00 ... index.html  

Muton would be my choice, only if his deep sea helmet comes off.   Otherwise, Kraken and Skeletron are too weird for my taste.
  
Skeletron =  :lol: I suspect this figure was made due to Skeletor from MOTU at this time.  

Does anybody think that a Red Snake is going to be made?

The Shadows' bodies are awesome, but I'm not feeling those heads.... the original Shadow heads are incredibly narrow and don't look right on Joe bodies. Everything else about them is gorgeous, though.

Pete, by Red Snake, did you mean the Escape Armour, that red redeco of the Cobra SNAKE?

Yes, that one.  They have the new tooling from the new Snake Armour to pull it off.  But I hate see how much that would cost.

I think the RED TORCHES is a nice new addition to the RED SHADOW ranks , but I do think , that if they sported the original head ( same as the regular infantry troopers ) it would have been more acceptable. In the original comics we would see Divers and such many time, their clothes would be different but the head would either be the same or very close, with only a few variations to them

but in any case Im siked about this set
