These were one of my favorite army builders.

Absolutely, one of my favourite army builders.

I agree about the quality slipping on Classified. The early figures didn't have stiff joints even when I went out into a blizzard to get my CI Viper, the joints always worked smoothly. I also feel they're relying more on detents in the joints for friction far too much on recent figures. The plastic on the early weapons was stiffer, less prone to warping. I also feel the paint was better on the early Classifieds. Congrats on getting a CI Viper! I do feel the Vipers will eventually receive a full Retro redo to make them look more accurate to the Original ARAH Viper.

lol @ "island boys" 😂😂😂
