@ru1977 How did I forget Stretcher? I have a list in my head of Joes who survived my childhood longer than most and Stretcher definitely made it longer than a lot of other guys who fell apart or broke or were lost. Love that guy. (We also need Doc's daughter I reckon.)

@docsilence yes, I would absolutely get a figure of Li'l Doc.

Nightforce Falcon and Quarrel 2pack back up on Walmart website for those still looking. 

DAmazing has a little review of SAW Viper.  Dude's tiny! 

The fuck.

I think the armor and helmet had the factory maybe scale down or closer to true 1;12th scale. He’s a one off for me. I’ll get one to try.

Thwipp!

@vicious7171 

Because, in the real world, there are no short people. 😋 

In the Black Hawk Down book, he said the Rangers would often have the little, skinny guys be SAW Gunners. I don't know how common that is though. My brother in law was a SAW gunner and he is pretty massive.

@detectivehoag his head looks too small for a short person, he's just small.  He almost looks a scale smaller, like an MCU figure among Marvel Legends.  Or a Cobra Island figure among modern scaled up figures like CI Firefly vs mainline Firefly, CI Trooper vs Crimson Guard, etc.  

I think most people were expecting him to be larger than average.  This just strikes me as a situation like the Steel Brigades where he's going to stick out in a bad way.

It's funny too -  because, he's clearly objectively smaller,  but even if he was the exact same size as a normal cobra trooper the bulky armor would have made him look smaller,  so they doubled down and made it even worse.

I guess if you keep him off by himself it might not look so bad - or as vicious hinted, maybe keep him over with some of the earlier Cobra Island guys so he doesn't look quiet as tiny?    Sigh.  

Well, he is a "SAW" Viper (Small Ass Warrior Viper)

A little short for a Viper? Alsfa Viper 

This figure being too small is somehow all Doc's fault.

Also, height aside, the helmet itself is missing the unique flared-out region underneath the visor that gives his head a distinctive silhouette. This is just a plain dome helmet.
