Ordered Nemesis Enforcer... almost didn't, but decided I couldn't resist.
I'm thinking about ordering the new MCU Falcon figure to work as a Joe figure. The MCU figures tend to be a bit smaller than than the standard Legends and somewhat more in line with Joe sizes and that Torres Falcon suit looks more military tactical than "super-hero" so I'm thinking he might be a good recruit for my Joes to pick up to take on Raptor.
Joes look to be on the larger side to, at least the ones I have. It's Star Wars that goes small alot of times.
CoCo has shipped
Toygalaxy posted some pictures of Nemesis Enforcer on his instagram, including some height comparisons. He's taller than Road Pig, which is good, but shorter than Serpentor, which feels a little off. I tend to think of Nemesis as being the absolute tallest of all the Joe characters. I don't know if that's a matter of Serpentor being too tall or Nemesis being slightly too short.
He also removed the sword sheathes, which helps the fat thigh syndrome a little, so I might be doing that as well.
Need to figure out a solution to the puny wings.
nice to see that i was wrong about sharing tooling with Road Pig, they're very different. maybe upper arms but that's about it. they do share the fact that they both have terrible ab crunches lol. love how unique each wing is, rather than mirroring the sculpt from side-to-side.
I didn't expect Nemesis to ship right away but I already got the charge on my card for him. Not gonna complain one bit if he shows up this week. I ordered something else that went up on Pulse today and only got charged for this dude, so I'm guessing he's in stock.
Instant gratification! We don't get that often enough in collector-ville.
@ibentmyman-thing there should be plenty of the wings around from the Venom Knull set. That got cleared down pretty cheap.
Saw the pics from secret galaxy, nemesis and serpentor are the same height
To me, his stock wings look good, thin and creepy looking.
@ibentmyman-thing Yeah I always thought of NI as bigger/taller than pretty much everyone in the Joe universe. Being the same height as Serpentor, or only slightly taller than Road Pig doesn't match what I was thinking.
Guess I'll have to wait and see what he is like in hand.
I think I'll be fine with NE being THICKER than Serpentor if he's the same height or shorter.
I also got notice that he shipped already. Insane.

I was thinking about those wings too.
As long as Pythona isn't the same height, I'll be good because they're going on their own shelf.

More pictures of Heavy Duty, he's supposed to go up for Preorder today.
Any opinions? I really like his pants deco on what looks like Slaughter legs.
Man, I love that Heavy Duty so much. I'm going to limit myself to one for now and then hope he hits a sale price in the future so I can buy a couple more.
