I had an extra AoCI Ripcord so I decided to make a modern Z-Force Radio Operator. He's actually kind of a cross between the Radio Operator and Infantry guy. Might even use him as Sparks, just so he has a name.
I actually really liked the vintage Action Force figure's but wish they weren't articulated like Star Wars.
That's a nice take on the original! I can get how 5-point would seem like a downgrade to GI Joe fans but you need to bear in mind playability, these things are practically indestructible. You can throw them out the window and they'll be fine. I've seen plenty of crotchless and thumbless Joes, too.
Which is why the Shadows will eventually beat GI Joe.
