PD Destro is here and ready to flaunt that war-profiteer status! I wasn't interested in this line until I got Scarlett in mid-July and was like "oh hey, this is a quality toy" and so then I was kind of thinking about getting Destro because I like what I know of that character. Then I remembered this version was coming out as a fan-channel exclusive and while I do think the normal version looks good there's just something about this version that really works for me. He's such a titan of weapons manufacturing and a Scottish laird so if he's not wearing the Cobra color scheme then I'd imagine he likes to live it up and go all out (evidently in leopard print). He can even make use of the diamond-topped cane for that BAF I never finished to add to his presence.

The gold head and cape being made a part of this look also give me Iron Grenadier vibes which I ran with and let him borrow Nightcrawler's sword. I think it works alright and even serves as a shout out to Hasbro's knockoff Lego line which did the same thing for its version of IG Destro.

I don't think many collectors would ever consider this "essential" to their 6" Joe line up but it really is a fun figure and I'm glad they put it in the line.
