I do like this, a lot. I’m a huge multicam fan and the pants, chest rig, dropdown w/pouches and fanny pack all look very good. The holster issue is a major oversight, and I will imagine this would get fixed prior to the figure’s release. As for the weapins, since none of my figure would be taking them apart, I think they’re OK. If the price is right I’d get one of these, and possibly loose items as well.
They seemed to have literally took a holster with a belt adapter and just stuck leg straps in it. They may be an OEM but they seem to have little idea what they are actually doing with their subject matter.
It doesn’t seem like a bad modern reimagining, even with the recycled gear. Definitely a better design than the MW 19 one, that’s for certain (no offense to General Sam). Regardless, Ghost is still my favorite COD character of all time. He’s one of the reasons that I got into this hobby in the first place, and the design of one of my Devgru bashes is inspired at least partially from him. Not sure if I’ll get a figure of him, since my current bashes already scratch the itch he gave me.
How are their figure bodies? How do they compare to say a DAM or an E&S figure body? Or any of the current or former lineup for that matter? Otherwise its a nicely photographed figure IMO.
BravoBob: Presume you mean Flagset bodies. I’ve picked up most of their releases and have no issues with bodies. No loose legs/arms or mid sections and nothing has broken. Unlike E&S, which over the past 12 months, have encountered, loose parts and even a broken arm. But I still use them for my kit bash projects.
I have not stripped a Flagset figure down so unsure how compatible they are with other figures. Thinking of foot & hand pegs compatibility for kit bashing. Must have a look at compatibility.
For me Flagset offers good value for money, in terms of end product not DamToy or E&S finish, but price is not £180 to £220+. How long this continues who knows.
UPDATE: Had a quick look at pegs on Flagset figure ( FYI - Israel IDF Sayeret Matkal “Wild Boy” Figure)
hand pegs look unique - slim n stubby best way to describe Flagset peg, on left. Certainly different.
Feet peg…sorry I failed, applied a load of heat but pegs not moving (don’t want to break anything so backed off). I suppose shows its well put together.
I’d say that they and minitimes would be good for someone that is new to this hobby and wants to get an entry level figure of decent quality. I know that I would have definitely tried to get my hands on this figure had it been out when I first started getting into this hobby. Their figures have enough detail and accessories to give someone a good taste of what can expect from others, but not so much as to be overwhelming. Their quality is suitable enough to serve as good bases for kitbashing. All of this usually being at a more palatable price point than that of Dam or Soldier Story. E&S might also qualify in terms of price, but I think that most of their figures might be too much for most beginners.
An ACR as a rifle would be preferable in my opinion in order to get the MW 2 look right. I think it is his signature weapon. Really looking forward to your release. Since I played MW 2 back in the day, I always wanted a ghost figure.
Now thats what Im talking about. A refined Version with a standard holo sight would be nice in order to get that ‘loose ends’ loadout. Maybe as en extra weapons pack in the future, who knows.
