The G.I. Joe Collector’s Club has dropped another preview from the roster of the Figure Subscription Service 3.0. Today’s image of of the team’s resident psychological warfare expert – Psyche-Out!
I was a fan of this figure design when the G.I. Joe Collector’s Club first unveiled his appearance in the Nocturnal Fire 2013 convention set. In fact, at that time I said that Psyche-Out was turning into one of the strongest figures in the entire set. That opinion still stands as the GIJCC was able to replicate the original 1987 color scheme and yet have it look plausible. Everything that worked for the convention design works here as well.
It is interesting to note that Psyche-Out has some changes to his kit including the Resolute Cobra Trooper SMG and a different backpack that was originally seen with the 25th Anniversary Zartan.
It’s another solid preview of a very solid roster. If you’ve not already subscribed to FSS 3.0, you’ll want to do so before June 30, 2014!
The more subdued colors work wonders for this figure. Those awkward radar dishes are far more realistic in black rather than bright red. Some great improvements to a once lackluster design, although I will never, ever grow used to that antennae on the back of his head,
