Hmmm.
Most of the reports I've heard say the same thing. Not that hot. That sucks. Oh well, less money spend on something other than joes and SW. ;D

if it wasn't for the scars, Tom Berenger wouldn't even look like his character. The other 3 likenesses are atrociously bad... maybe that was a legal thing so they couldn't get closer but if that's the case, they could have skipped on the line altogether, it doesn't do the film justice in the lease.

Yeah, the head sculpts are atrociously bad. Originally wanted these guys whe I first heard of them, but once I saw them, ugh, simply terrible. And here I was hoping for an awesome figure of Dr. Cox.

I saw the Platoon figures again the other night, took a good look at all 4 of the figures and I think they actually worse for every minute my vision lingered on them.
Jesus christ, the same body molds, weapons, and crappy unarticulated alternate limbs as all the other Vietnam pegwarmers. For as shitty as the heads are, why the fuck did they even bother call them PLATOON figures? They should have saved the money they shelled out to get the license and saved the world from ever seeing the terrible, terrible action figures. Fuck!

Huh. Glad I didnt try and preorder these somewhere. They sounded so cool at first. Now they just sound like crap.

a Dr Cox figure would rock,
In dialogue to lifeline "well, patricia, its great that you ditched the dress and found your boots, but why doesn't peggy want her matching pink rifle?"
LOL
