Idw comics version mostly. They gonna retro him I bet. But the skin and looking like the older guys from 90's drama like soul food and waiting to exhale always looked like the cartoon version, couldn't tell if he was mixed with Latino or not😂 but it's OK if you can get pass the wide hat🤷🏿‍♂️ I never expect the classified to be like the retro, same name two lines. I like some of the up to date stuff in classified but when the retros drop I get those too but for displaying on the wall. I open all my classified tho. Mostly all the classified is the idw publishing just like the bad reviews on roadpig, just remove the stomach tattoo and he looks like the up to date art of him. Look it up he looks like a bulky bully from high-school football with a gut. But this alpine is more up to date with a bigger little gun, remember that gun that made the figure, yeah in the comic it's bigger now.

How did u fix the wings?

The wings look awesome 👌🏽 this way!

Awesome review and well rounded and thoughtful as ever. I passed but can totally understand why so many collectors were excited for this guy. Shame they didn't think out the swords and gripping hands a bit better.

Great review Chris, and I have to agree, there is something just off with this figure. Not sure if the wings needed extra paint apps, or maybe it's the colour palette used for the figure that just clashes, or maybe it's the awful looking sword holsters that just stand out to much, but this figures just doesn't work visually for me.

Terrible figure

Great review, Chris. As for me, why would I watch other inferior reviews when yours is on the way? What happened to your time travel effect with your hands? I miss it. Just film one clip then edit into every video. Just a thought

I haven’t gotten around to unboxing mine yet but will soon. Great vid as always!!

I don't think my Nemesis whatever he's called these days needs swords......he's got the spikey things on his forearms.......no?

I have to give a huge shout out to my good buddy Ken who managed to grab 2 of these and called me as soon as they arrived ......it's a fun addition to the shelf and I'm happy to have and can now look forward to a couple of future releases to fill out the Cobra La shelf which would have been lacking without this guy great review as always Chris and thanks for the info. I was not aware of his Flash Fandom and had wrongly assumed he was an old school Zeus fan and or worshiper so good form on correcting me in that assumption 😂

The way you pose the wings might make balancing him more difficult. As others have mentioned he's got more forward movement in his ankles once you work them past that armour ridge in the front. Once you get that working I find it helps a lot if you use the butterfly joint in the wings to help pose them forward more to offset the weight on his back. He's tricky to pose but it's possible once you get the hang of it.

Just like metalhead I was super excited for this character. But I'm definitely not a fan of those wings I know it looks like the one in the energon universe but I'm sure somebody is going to have a set of traditional set of wings for him soon

I do love this figure quite a bit! My torso is wobbly too. The swords do fit odd in his hands. The ankle articulation does go further forward. Swivel to the side a bit and the hinge will move past that catch. The wings are an odd ball interpretation other than the big ole gargoyle style from Sunbow. I’m happy with either. More crunch would be nice. I wanted another 1/8-1/4” taller. He does look down on Sarge but I wanted him noticeably taller than Serpentor. I have had lots of fun with this guy. I think some of the shielding wings poses work. Hang him upside down for a creepy winged menace look. I like the armored look for his head which they ran with a bit in the comics I think. I bought two to have more of those minions. I greatly enjoy the cephalopod and the wings are growing on me as a beast separate as well. I wanted flanking cephalopods. Looks great. I made veiny sword holders out of the purple packaging material that came with the figure. The new sword holders allow the swords to store on his back on either side of the backpack. Look cool with the hooks poking out.

I wish I'd seen this before i ordered him.I haven't loved this figure as much as I'd hoped when they first showed him.

He looks okay , greatly detailed but I think he should have been taller a bit thinner and I wish they gave him wings as big as the Neca Gargoyle figures. Maybe if hasbro makes a retro version of him they will address my complaints😊 Lenny mentioned that the second head with the extra Bone on his head grows when he needs extra head protection

The red shadows all got discarded (KIA) in the action force comics or weirdly evolved into "Cobra characters" at the time for me as a kid it felt like how Serpentor and Cobra La sh$t on CC. Except Cobra was super cool, they didn't have to do the Red Shadows dirty for us to be blown away by these articulated new figures with explosive card art.

I grew up in the US, so I have no emotional atachment to the Red Shadows. I really like the way that they look though. I'm glad that Fresh Monkey Fiction is creating something similar. I seriously doubt that Hasbro will ever make a Classified Red Shadows figure.

The small gun is very red shadows I think, except it would be all black, which isn't hard to fix. I don't like the large gun either even though it is well made and sculpted. Red shadows do not go with crimson guards, they really are their own unique looking faction I think.

Awesome review my friend. Made it hard for me to pass on this line!!

Id use the the big Ben load out as weapons that Destro is selling to Cobra

He looks so goofy I wish they would’ve gave us serious, ready for battle type hand sculpt his eyes make him look like a doofus

My god this figure blew my mind. It’s so cool. I’m so happy with it Chris. Nostalgia organisms were had😂

Hopefully you hit the 2000 subs milestone before the end of the year!

Different hands for different hand gestures....that sounded rude😂😂 😂😂😂😂lol Figure looks great but I only pre-ordered two figures that I think is from their second wave ....can't wait for them to be released. Great unboxing and review video Chris as always 👍

Red Shadow Walker? I got this one. Love it. I do wish there ports on the appendages to plug hoses into arms and legs, steam punk Borg look. I like it. The figure poses like a dream. So smooth. Can’t wait for Crimson Moon wolf trooper.

I never saw that third head option when I originally was looking at this figure. It's a nice-looking figure but I'm looking forward to order the crimson Moon exterminator

I like how the red mask paint looks like facial hair

This is the most tempting line, outside of Classified Series for me right now. I'm waiting for the next wave of reveals and hoping it includes the Red Devil figure from the 13 Ghosts faction.

Great review Chris. Holy crap that's some amount of accessories! Deffo think I'll have to nab one of the red variants for the Red Shadow look 🔥

Those weapons look oddly like Scitarii weapons from 40k’s adeptus mechanicus…

I can’t wait to get these from Kapow Toys Chris!

I bought the Crimson Sleep Walker to check out the line. I may pick up another. I did also preorder Crimson Moon guy as I want werewolf soldiers. Added bonus is it fits in with these. Maybe I’ll get a black/red one for variety. I love the monster element and while I want one of those whacked out super wolf action figures from like Loose Collector or something like that, I like the soldier wolf look too. These Sleep Walkers are zombie reanimated corpses to me. I try to play with the posture to make them more monster like. Yeah I think I may grab the black one. Personally the green lasers in with the more green one appeal to me better. I’ll find effects from other figs. They are all painted up red though. Hmmm? Green lasers feel more spooky to me. I did grab a vampire soldier and Forgotten King. Just sampling. Maybe another two in January after I spend loads on Christmas time. I don’t think there are more Monster Force till Q2 next year. I definitely preordered the Frankenstein warrior. More fun to come.

He looks great and I imagine that they would pair up well with the iron grenadiers from classified but I'm not too sold on the head sculpt. I imagine that they look better in hand than on video. Great unboxing and review video as always Chris 👍

If |I had to guess why they slapped 'Tesla-core' (or whatever you want to call such a style) It might be a combination of Doctor Frankenstein's Lab and Ghostbusters. If I was going to point at a Movie that this line reminded me of (that wasn't a Horror Movie) then it would be The Rocketeer : ruclips.net/video/Dof29lHu4io/видео.html & the similar The Video game Dark Void.

Great review the designs sway to close to horrible and painful history for my tastes. Passing on this line.

It is a very cool looking figure 👍👍👍👍🍔🥤

A strike by someone who has no connection to Fresh monkey fiction or monster force. So it was a bogus attack by a sycophant of Punks haters.

I'm holding out for Crimson Moon but good to see that overall they are solidly made figures.

I bought this set PRIMARILY for the new Falcon head as Falcon is one of my top 3 favorite joes along with Repeater and Captain Grid Iron.

Well said. Losing institutional knowledge is massive and will definitely hurt them continuously down the line. And for what, to juice the short-term numbers? Also lol at "I'm so passionate about this subject--I fucking hate it!" ✊

Blowtorch is one of my favorites. I’m excited for him.

Hey Chris, I'm passing on Nemesis Immortal. Had him as a kid and I don't like the mold of him. I'd rather see him on a Serpentor like frame vs Road Pig. I also think the surface area of the wings looks to small. I only ordered the 2 SS86 Constructicons today. Heavy Duty - I'm in! Trench Viper & bunker thing - I'll probably pass. He looks cool.. neat concept.. but I would only order 1 and then the bunker would look like poo. I'm not buying a bunch. Retro Flint - Pass maybe clearance/sale - they will fix his boots, maybe new face, and then add the Joe laser rifle and probably Falcons Shotgn. Tele-Viper - pass...Change his paint a pinch, maybe switch arms to short sleeve version like the OG. Cover Girl - Hasbro will go cheap.. Same mold as last time. Mold the jacket green vs brown, new head sculpt, Laser rifle maybe and other random weapons being run. Pass maybe clearance/sale Blowtorch looks awesome & so does Frag Viper. ( I hope he comes with a cpl loose grenades) I think Heart Wrencher is OFF the list. they said she was gonna be a 2 pack. That was QUARREL not Heart Wrencher. I think someone interpreted the info wrong. Weapon look outs. Glenda's laser rifle/ backpack would be for Flash in the future. Also, Footloose has a new style Bazooka which could go for Zap or some Cobra Trooper maybe. CHEERS!

Blowtorch was one of my favourite vintage figures. I didn’t really recognise that new iteration. Each to their own, hopefully a retro one will follow.

I'll wait for a retro Blowtorch. Not a fan of those silver discs.
