Title: Movie figures: M.A.R.S. Troopers 3 Pack plus Baroness and Breaker images
Post by: Pete The Greek on December 31, 2008, 01:05:11 PM: Source: www.theterrordrome.com (http://www.theterrordrome.com)

Well, sooner of later, pictures were going to surface. M.A.R.S. Troopers 3 Pack (http://http://www.theterrordrome.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=782) and Baroness & Breaker (http://http://www.theterrordrome.com/2008/12/new-gijoe-rise-of-cobra-baroness-and-breaker-images/)

These M.A.R.S. figures look decent. Plus, I can easily see these figures fitting into a regular 25th Destro IG army, whether you dig the movie figures or not.

Breaker is ok. But it's not the Breaker I am use to. Baroness = meh.

With the Lucasfilm toys getting lamer and lamer maybe Joe is gonna get a continued effort for a while. Anyway I think the movie toys will be more popular than the movie itself. I'd buy this set if it was around 15 bucks.

I love the mars troopers, and if the joes are decent I will be a big fan of the movie toys. Unfortunately the Breaker and Baroness pics do not give me a lot of hope for the non- army builders.

I agree 100% with this. The MARS Troopers do look interesting, but the Breaker & Baroness images don't give me any reason to want to collect these. Hopefully they don't look as bad in person.

I can't say I like the sculpt on her face - I hope the real actress doesn't look like this.

Post by: Kronz on January 15, 2009, 06:24:49 AM: Hmm, I like her accessories. If her blue version head can pop onto that torso, it might be worth a try. To this day I've never had a Baroness that I thought really did her cartoon character justice, and it looks like I will keep waiting.

Post by: Kronz on January 15, 2009, 08:50:08 AM: by the way, Sienna Miller is playing her...I was surprised since this sculpt looks nothing like her

edit: well, now Sienna doesn't look like herself even, so maybe the figure is accurate?

I can understand the classic black leather look, but what is with the rinestone bling?

Post by: Pete The Greek on January 15, 2009, 01:07:06 PM: Right now, I am not a fan of Sienna playing the role of the Baroness. She doesn't fit the bill in terms of the "look" in my books.
