As for Slaughter's build, he's supposed to be some high rank training officer. I couldn't take him seriously if he isn't built like what a trainer should be built like.

In all fairness...most of the TIs that I dealt with in BMT weren't built like the Sarge...most of them were smaller built, yet were simplt highly motivated individuals who could run circles around 95 percent of the trainees...but I digress. Looking back...some of the female trainers were actually more intimidating than the male ones at times...lol

I'm honestly thinking of kitbashing together another Sarge and adding a cloth goods tee since he and Gung Ho have similar builds...but I really need to sit down and compare the two figures.

A YouTube review that I watched recently made an interesting comment about the Valaverse Sarge in comparison to the Hasbro version, stating that the smaller stature of the Vala figure could very well pass for an older, more grizzled version of the Sarge, as people as we age tend to shrink in size and muscle mass. The Classified one could pass for a younger version of the same character.

I have no doubt we will see a few more figures of the Sarge in the future (such as the Mail-a-way or Marauders versions)...but hopefully, Hasbro doesn't make the same mistake by choosing to paint fleshtone over colored plastic as opposed to it being the other way around.
