Sonneilon aka 'Paul WS Anderson' ;) Offline --> Posts: 7,751 --> Join Date: Jul 2005	YAY or NAY : Link Talbot Ok, I thought it over. Let's see what the posse here really thinks of the new characters. I am going to put in a lot of different aspects on the YAY or NAY side so while there may be positives, there will most likely be negatives too. It's a mix of subjective and objective aspect. Target: DR. LINK TALBOT. Typical ARAH construction. All new sculpt. Decent sculpt. First Combat Veternarian. Had a starring role in the Valor vs Venom movie. Figured out how to reverse the Venomization process. Has cornrows. Cares about his animals at the zoo. Scarlet took him down in the movie. Came w/ great grenade launcher & wrist communicator. Technically a Navy SEAL and martial arts expert. Had 2 versions made of him. Not the most military of outfits. Buff for an ARAH figure. "Nobody touches mah animals..." Image from www.yojoe.com

Outrider It's been a great ride! Offline --> Posts: 14,302 --> Join Date: Jun 2005	Again, new characters beat infinite versions of the same old ones over and over. Whilst Link is not one of my faves, he has a place in my Joeverse as a medic. __________________ "The future's uncertain and the end is always near." - The Doors "Roadhouse Blues".

technically thats four words... five if you sepererate "He" & "is"

but i agree... even tho i dislike him because he's a vet, I would use him as a "red-shirt" and not much more. I have nothing against vets, but come on, a GI Joe vet?

lehsreh G.I. Smurf Offline --> Posts: 3,446 --> Join Date: Jan 2006	i use him , he got killed in my halloween dio. ill use anyone, but that doesnt mean i like them. the only new characters i like since the ARAh figs are bombstrike, hannible and venom maximus. blackout, cross hair, link, black outs brother, wraith, the team in black for cobra, hated them all. i wanted to see my old faves and not new characters, guess im alone in that thought as many say they had enough of the oldies.
