I've liked the prior versions of BH. This guy is awesome but he seems burdended down by all that gear! How can he move around? Will he grab a SAW and just stand there? I DO find it amusing how people thought he was a cobra!

And what, no love for Kamakura that's coming???

One thing I don't understand about the new figures is that since they fixed the crotches on the 25A figures, Hasbro has been hanging pockets, "skirts", vests and whatnot over the hip joints so a lot of figures still can't sit properly. Doesn't anybody test these things before they go into production? :rolleyes:

That's still a deadly looking Beach Head though.

Beachhead looks okay, his head is too relaxed looking though.

Thats the problem with Winter Snake Eyes and Frostbite(Ice dagger) the jacket limits their hip to seat properly.

It has to do with the goal of the figure. The goal of the figure sometimes is to capture a movie scene or element, it doesn't have to always do with articulation and poseability. Long time Star Wars collectors have dealt with this trade off since about 2000.

That is true, but the point of a vehicle driver is to (drum roll please) sit down and drive a vehicle. Joe has always been much more articulated than SW anyway. I do like the added details and accessories and whatnot, but sometimes the skirts are pretty annoying.
