If we're going to deep dive space skunk, then it's time to give some love to Frenzy, Tower, Stinger, and Timeshadow.

Boxed set for an unrecognized team from the early X-books and connects perfectly with Apocalypse, X-Factor Cyclops, Jean Grey, and the Retro X-Men lineup.

Maybe even develop that Apocalypse into a first appearance look.

From the Danwhoo interview, Apocalypse is apparently one of Dwight's favorite characters (along with Stryfe) and he specifically called out his original X-Factor appearance as his favorite version and said he'd love to make it some day. He was suspiciously quiet on Timeshadow, though.
 
I like the new paint better, but not enough to justify buying it again. Wasn't a very fun figure to pose anyway.
 
I actually prefer the old one for paint. I do like the new head here, but I don't think I like it enough to pick this one up.

Nimrod is not a character I care enough about to buy any kind of upgrade or repaint.

Right? This was a weird choice. I think it's an attempt to get their money's worth on a mold that is very character specific and single-use as a result. But I don't think anyone was asking for this. Maybe it's appealing to the few who didn't want to buy Psylocke and Fantomex just to get Nimrod.
 
I like the upgraded paint on Nimrod, but I don't think they're going to get me for another one - not in the year of our lord 2025-2026, with a crumbling economy and taxes galore. I'm always happy when they rerelease former BAFs/multipack figures to make it easier for people to get, though. That's a good practice they should keep up.
 
I definitely would be getting this if I hadn't broke down and gone to ebay for the 3 pack version over a year ago. I do appreciate them doing it (and it makes me certain we're getting Onslaught as a straight re-release now) I just wish they'd done it sooner. That said, least I know I can wait for the Onslaught and hopefully, eventually, a Mindless One single card.

I like the colors on this Nimrod. The previous version had a good arm and shoulder design, but the hips lacked range of motion. I wish they redesigned the hips for this new one. Then it would be a must-have for me.

Or is there a way to modify the hips? Maybe just trim down the plastic in the hips? I have never tried that before.

Sometimes a little trin will do it but it don't think I've seen it for this one.
 
I like the more early X-men accurate head sculpt most of all with this new version. Like Popoman said, he was a tough figure to mess around with. I ended up selling the 3-pack version.
