I'm torn between which CC I am going to pair with my Baroness variant. The SS variant, on the other hand, might be one of the worst things I have ever seen. Just awful.

If anybody is planning on ordering, AF said they will match edition # to the Baroness you previously ordered. I plan on doing this.

man. i grew up with gijoes as my primary action figures along with my SW figures. i absolutely cannot stand any of the acidfree collection. i think the format is nice, i really like the elongated formats, but, the art is just so blah to me. so glad i didn't get into these. i know you guys dig em, but, is it the drawing itself, the artist, or the property? i just don't see it. i know, to each his/her own. just curious.

They are stylized for sure, which I know turns off some. I have the Baroness and it looks great in person. To me, that Cobra Commander is amazing. I'm not a huge fan of the Storm Shadow myself, but that is mostly because I think the variant version turned out so poorly. The regular version looks decent but is still the weakest of the 3.

I was not a fan at all of the Duke/Scarlett/Snake Eyes prints that came out before these.
