SSC Beachhead

[Erech Overaker]

BH showed up yesterday, but had some running around to do and only got into him today. Quick review:

Amazing figure.
Knee ratchets are awful.

The end.

I wish it was a bit more forest green like the original...

It matches the color of his shirt in the card art which is good enough for me.

Awesome figure. Mine is solid all around, good paint apps on both heads (aside from the already mentioned hair dollop, lol.) Best figure I own.

Beachhead is awesome, but I HATE the newer stands... serious hate them.

The only thing I wish was different with this figure is the color of the sweater and balaclava. I wish it was a bit more forest green like the original...but I guess they were going with realism with the od so I can live with it.

I wish it didnt have different color patches.

One thing I will say is a positive though about the new knees is that they make the figure stand very firmly on it's own without the stand. I'm really digging the fact that I currently have BH, in full pose without the stand.

This is such a great figure all the way around.

You want pics of the balaclava head with a sniper rifle on it?

True, but finding that sweet spot to get him to stand firmly seems to be the trick. I appreciate SS took some complaints about joint looseness to task and tried something, just not sure this is the fix we need.

I will add, aside from the knees, it's the tighty-est jointed Joe I've gotten yet, really happy with that. Each new release seems to get better and better in that regard.

BH is a beast.

I think you can just switch out the joints if you can find those loose, can't you?

 

[marker2037]

just got me shipping notice... YEAH!!!!

 

[2ndname]

Which body does BH come with? I thought it was the 1.2?

 

[marker2037]

I think it's new. So maybe 1.3??

 

[Darth Cruel]

I think they still call it the 1.2. But it has the new ratchet knees (which I think are great, but I am apparently alone in that attitude).

 

[EVILFACE]

I didn't have any problem getting lots of nice poses with the new knees.

Most of you all can't futz properly let alone pose your figures .
