Oh hey TBM, speaking of cosmic, what do you think about the Vance body as a look for a new Surfer? It is a bit bulkier than I personally like but I know a few liked that thought of a bulkier Surfer way back when we last discussed it. Even the head would almost work if it was just repainted for Surfer.

No biggie...Razor/Talon - they look nearly the same and are easily confused. That said, I prefer Talon's slight design tweaks...he just looked more sinister and was far more kickass in presentation.

I really like how the Vance Astro fig came out, but I like the Spiderman2099/Sunfire mold better for Surfer. It's perfect in size and musculature for a Ron Lim Surfer; which is likely the most iconic cross-era/generational look for the character given the speculative age groups of potential consumers. The new "butterfly-shoulders" (is that the semi-official nomenclature? - yeah, let's go with that) would compliment Surfer well, adding dynamic options to the figure. I'd also want removable hands, a new "Kirby Krackle" power-globe accessory, and a slick refractive paint job.

However, at this point, any Surfer fig would be very welcome...
