I have been trying to get extra compound bows from figures for years. I am surprised these were still available. Thanks for the heads-up screamingmetal!

Glad to hear you picked one up while you could, they're gone now.
The VSS was gone when I got there, knew it would be a hot item.
 
Damn you vultures! I also want to get another armor and hoodie to try and make him more old-school accurate. Was gonna get another body for Flint, but like EF said, too dark and I'm not gonna get Flint's head repainted, so I won't bother with that.

Anyway, I got this guy today, and I think he's easily the best Joe figure I've picked up yet. So many awesome display options, too.
 
Yeah...I was kind of hoping to get a hoody and pants to dye them brown. I won't do that to the original parts. But there will be other opportunities.
 
It was so great putting together 2 joes in one day.I wish Sideshow would ship like that more often :)

Zartan is my Favorite figure in this line and has me really drooling for Destro now! (He better show up at SDCC)..

This line is only going to keep getting better as we dip more into the unique characters

I'm the opposite. I hope it never happens again. Zartan totally ruined the Black Ninja for me. He got no time to shine. :(
 
Since I didn't see anyone else doing it yet, here's Zartan with some other Cobra scum:

It didn't ruin it for me...Sure,Zartan is 10 times cooler,but makes no difference whether the BN was released today or next year..its still a cool figure

Sideshow could send me 10 new figures to open,it would be awesome and a long day :)
 
It would be awesome, but I prefer to get figures 1 at a time and enjoy them fully in their own spotlight before another figure swoops in. I opened BN first because I knew Z would still his thunder, and even then, he only had a few minutes to shine before getting forgotten by Z's awesomeness. And now he's just one of the ninjas. Probably the coolest one, but still just one of the ninjas.

Man, I didn't realize how short CC is! I've had him on the throne since it shipped so I didn't realize how much bigger Zartan was than him :lol

See, I'd say just wait a week or so and then open him, but you self-wedgie if Sideshow charges you 3 minutes before a figure arrives in the warehouse. :huh

:lol Yeah, I think that was part of the problem. After waiting on that it would have been hard to wait even longer to open him up. Had the BN and Zartan been 4 days apart like their billing, that would have been perfect. I have no self control.
 
I agree, I am thinking about doing that myself and giving him a TT muscle body. I don't mind the Pro, I just hate the sheety ankle joints. AND wtf is up with the rubber knee caps? Makes these things sway back and forth.

was my first reaction on assembling it - wtf was wrong with his legs. Damn shame as it is otherwise a fine figure. Thankfully bodyswaps off the prometheus are fairly simple, the foot is the hardest swap. Almost did the bodyswap on the spot.
 
Correction - ankles were easy. No idea why I thought they weren't. Straight boil and pop, the sockets fit the HT Ankle socket.

Done, and much improved.
