These are awesome figures, its a shame they are only available in this way. My only complaint is that Flint should have been Skip of Z Force

where's my post gone? i asked a reasonable question and it's vanished? what's the matter, Baron? can't a guy ask a question without it being deleted for being inflammatory?

it looks like one of the new Shads has two right arms or is it me?

I wasn't in the mood for cynicism in the face of some of the best news we've ever had. Get with the program, will you?

You might be right, my convention blades has two right hands. A real Palitoy homage!

Like those photo's, new with old is cracking!
When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

The black looks much better.

I know that they use a lot of re-cast & re-coloured parts...but they do look good.

Besides the original :enemy: figures were (for the most part) recycled :AFLogo: figures, so it's appropriate that they aren't 100% new toys :-D
More news, as its made, from new Action Force!

i wasn't being cynical. i was asking a straight-forward question.

the Shad figures look great. i still think the nu-Flint's camo colours are shite. the Major looks good, but i'd be far happier if he had black hair.
