The last figure from the latest Figure Subscription Service has been revealed, and she looks pretty great. Fans have been clamoring for Bombstrike for quite a while now (especially since FSS 1.0 gave us her two brothers) and it’s great to see such a successful end result.
She sports a newly sculpted Boss Fight Studio head with Renegades Scarlett torso and what looks like the Rise of Cobra Cover Girl arms and legs. Love the black shirt underneath the tan flak vest…and really love that the Stall family has been wrapped up. Of course this makes it just a bit more annoying (to me) that the FSS Barrel Roll is the DTC re-hash instead of the blue and gray like it should have been. Thankfully I have a custom that satisfies that little requirement in my universe, though.
Kudos to the Collectors Club for a very nice looking Figure Subscription Service. My own personal issues with Hit & Run aside, I’m quite happy with most of the selections, and I think they did take some time and listen to the fans, especially when it comes to getting normal versions of the Night Force characters out there. Here’s hoping fan input can make some impact with the end result for Hit & Run as well. Regardless I think things look good, and I’ll be excited for pretty much every package to arrive at my door.
Check out Bombstrike below, and then I’ve also mirrored every single FSS figure to date so you can see them all together. Keep watching GIJoeClub.com for the latest info and announcements! Make sure you hit their FSS Subscription Page as well and order up a set! Registration won’t be open much longer.
Nice figure concept. Awful, awful photo chop.
Justin, post a picture of the Barrel Roll custom you mentioned here. Curious what it looks like.
check out Justin’s review of the FSS Black Out – he has a pic of the custom near the bottom of the page.
thanks, man. I didn’t get back to the site before Justin posted it himself.
Here you go…

ahhh, yeah, the Club should have done that… Spy Troops Barrel Roll is the iconic look for him.
(or if they really just preferred to pay tribute to DTC instead, they should have been more accurate to it than the FSS 1.0 figure was)
If I never see another set of Resolute Duke arms again, it’ll be too soon…
Yes, they seem to be getting less skilled at the photoshopped mock-ups. That doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with the figure. And we can always use more female characters.
That head sculpt is hideous!
Looks great!
Preorder…..sold out!
