i think this is going to be a deciding issue...

Very colourful! Duke looks great in the darker colours.

Yes, He does!

I nearly picked this up when it was in the Pulse sale but resisted. I wasn't keen on the original Tiger Force as a kid but I do like the Classified versions of the figures. Not sure about the RAM though. I open most Joe's so I'm fine with the boxes, especially as most of the original vehicles were in sealed boxes anyway. Plus I prefer art over a photo for a box front so these seem better than Black Series. Didn't know about the flags - entertaining & informative!

I almost passed on this the i saw it at Target and decided to grab it as it caught me eye. Overall, i'm happy with what they did, its enough paint differences to make it unique. I think that the flag is only supposed to be on the passenger side (right) and the Union rides over the vehicle also (something like that). its funny the tings you pick up as a kid.

Great breakdown of the two versions of this set. While the art on the Tiger Force set is cool, the old plastic packaging is just so much better. In box collectors get to see their figures and openers can see beforehand if there are any QC issues before buying.

True opening a box just to find issue (like the wrong figure) is a disaster waiting to happen. I'm a bit torn because if i wasn't saving a set for my grandson i wouldn't have these two boxed. and the boxes would be long gone by now. The new one with comic art almost makes me want to keep it. The tiger force colors are funny because they seem comic-ish, but they pop to the eye so i kind of like it.

@@VernRants The cool artwork could be on the back to replace that silly map maybe? I do love the more garish looking items like this and figures like the Alley Viper, as they just pop so well on the shelf.

i agree

New intro Vern? 👍. Or is my mind playing tricks? New Duke, same as the old Duke. Still it's not a bad set. I do like the cycle coloring. Definitely reminds me of the TF from my youth. Glad they corrected the flag decal. And I might be in the minority, but I don't mind the new packaging on this particular one. I always prefer to see my toys, but the art is pretty rad. Good review buddy.

The into I made a few Months back and have forgotten to put it in all my videos 🤣 As for the repaint, I think I’m good with it too! It has just the right look.

The packaging is really cool, but I would rather see the bike and figure in case I left it in the package.

I understand, most would opt for this I would think.

@oakhurststudios Thought Duke was “6’2” eyes of blue” from the episode he’s held captive by cave people and he rescued scarlet and a cave girl?? Or am I remembering it wrong?

Looks cheap. I see why Serpentor was so expensive now.

It’s the same as breaker and ram, the paint does lighten the mood on it for sure. If your a tiger force fan then it’s pretty solid

Why people dont want detailed gun paint they look like dollar store cheap guns from 1990s quality... Hell people pay insane prices for custom molded guns they replicate and make 70-90% profit lol people have bottom of the barrel standards on everything now and easy to milk lol

there is plenty more here than that. I agree they could have added some paint apps.
