As much a fan of Joe I am, this Viper sculpt sucks monkey taint. It ranks right down there with the JvC AlleyViper as the biggest disappointment in Joe history. It looks okay with a casual glance (whereas the JvC AV looked like a pile of shiat to Stevie Wonder), but there's so many small issues that just plain ain't the way I would've gone that it adds up to a suckage of a figure.
Issues of suck:
WTF is the point of removeable goggles if there's nowhere else to put them?
WTF is with not having a Trooper head under the helmet - or even making the helmet big enough for customizers to dremel it out so it'd fit?
WTF is with that damnable elbow flange sticking out to the side of the right arm? It doesn't improve the appearance of *any* fig it's ever appeared on, nor does it prevent the forearms from bending beyond normal range; but at least one could always just look at the fig from the front and ignore it but now that option's removed since they put it on the frickin' side.
Seriously, WTF is with the hands?
This set is just
5x suck
to me. Enjoy it if y'all can; but I wish everyone would just stop buying this shiat mold so we could get a better sculpt of it.
