My 25th Blowtorch has such a sorry set of equipment that I may pick him up to easily replace that stuff. I like the damage deco on the Jungle BAT, so I may grab one there, too.

Damn, if Blowtorch had a shaved head, he'd almost look like Jared Loughner's mug shot. Creepy...

Still totally not understanding why the Blowtorch was even re-released, but I'll be damned if that Jungle B.A.T. isn't growing on me more and more by the day. These pictures really do him justice. Good stuff. I love the idea of using the battle damaged stuff on him and making him look like he's been out in the wilderness for months, just getting beat down.

I think Blowtorch and Crocmaster are both examples of Hasbro spending money on tooling and not getting enough use out of it. I can just imagine the designers sitting around trying to figure out what to use as a filler wave when PoC was renewed and Hasbro saying "Well, we need to make money off of these molds...."

Which is why I think a lot of this wave isis bumpus. Though I do like the Cobra trooper, but I've always been a sucker for those. I would love to see them repaint these into a stinger driver, or give some the 'black major' treatment and release them in Night Force and Python schemes.

The card art showing all of the battle damage is what sold me as well. A simple repaint, but a very cool one.

Great review! Blowtorch reminds me of a light haired Tony Perkins.
