 Hello everybody hooded cober commander 788 here welcome back to class of friday where we look at a gi Joe classified series Six inch action figure this week I am turning my attention back to the snake eyes gi Joe origin movies figure with the Baroness I have almost worked my way through all of these figures the only one I don't have is scarlet But I will get it. I do want to complete this series. I think the figures are better than the movie Let's take a look at the packaging so we can see how this figure was marketed. We have the window pane showing the figure and the accessories We have the snake eyes gi Joe origins movie logo We have the gi Joe classified series logo and the name of this figure is Baroness We have some box art here. It is in a sharp comic book style and I do like this. I think mostly for the coloring It's very dramatic. It does bear the likeness of the actress from the movie Ursula Corbeiro The artwork continues to the side of the box and again, this is really good and I think it's the coloring that makes it work It's very dramatic. This is number 19 in the classified series on the back of the box We have the generic movie poster artwork that was on all of these movie figures on this side of the box We have these symbols which represent her specialties. This is one of those comically oversized keys to the city This is for his tanks side-by-side as seen from above This means she took a lightning strike to the brain that must have been painful and this means on sunny days She likes to wear a hat and sunglasses now that we've looked over the box So let's take the figure out of the box and look at the Baroness Here is the Baroness outside of the box and now that the figure is out of the box I can point out that inside the box in the space that was behind the figure There is the Arashikage hexagram, which I also have on my arm This Baroness figure, like most Baroness figures, is inspired by the first Baroness action figure from 1984 With the black hair, the glasses, the black uniform and the red Cobra emblem We already got a Baroness figure in the classified series We had the target exclusive Cobra Island Baroness that was not inspired by the movie But as you can see it was still inspired by the original Baroness figure With the predominantly black and red uniform The Cobra Island Baroness included a motorcycle, a really wicked looking motorcycle too So she was a vehicle driver Let's take a look at movie Baroness's accessories She didn't have a lot of them, but the ones she had were appropriate First, she has removable glasses These glasses are a separate piece and they can be removed carefully They are incredibly tiny So you could drop them and lose them very easily The glasses have black rims and clear lenses They are slightly flexible so they can fit on the figure without breaking They do fit on reasonably securely These tiny little removable glasses always make me nervous The Cobra Island Baroness also had glasses They were non-removable and they had clear lenses And I think I like them better They just have more style Next accessory is her primary weapon Which is this MP5 submachine gun And I really like this Check this out We have a realistic firearm design With a couple subtle paint sprays on the grips And it has a removable suppressor And a removable magazine That is great Her remaining accessories are her machete-like knives They fit in these sheaths at the back of her belt They can be removed These knives have silver curved blades With paint on the blades It's always nice to get paint on accessories And they have black snake head handles And I love this It's an excellent detail, very well sculpted And I like the Cobra theming Let's take a look at the Baroness's articulation She has classified series articulation Which is usually pretty good Her head is on a ball joint So she has good range of motion on the head And she has some neck articulation So she can do that She has butterfly joints at the shoulders But they are so tight they barely move She can lift her arm up at the shoulder And swivel at the shoulder But that swivel is interfered with By these shoulder pieces She has a swivel at the elbow She has single jointed elbows And this is an unfortunate feature Of the early classified series female figures They did not have double jointed elbows She has swivels at the wrist And she seems to have hinges Up and down hinges on both wrists But the movement is somewhat limited She has a chest cut And there is some movement there She also has a cut at the waist And there's a bit more movement there She doesn't have much of an ab crunch Even though it's not obstructed by anything She has a good leg split And forward and backward motion on the leg She has a twist at the thigh cut She has double jointed knees She has a twist at the boot cut And she has hinged and rocker ankles Let's take a look at the sculpt design In color of movie baroness Starting with her head and on her head She has dark brown hair Very well sculpted She has the likeness of the actress And this is really good They're getting very good at capturing Actor likenesses nowadays I don't think she looks quite right though So let's put those glasses back on And yes there now she looks like the baroness She has a black choker collar Around her neck for extra sexiness She has some flesh colored paint Around her collar bone And she has black armor on her shoulders On her arms she has this Snake skin pattern uniform All in black She has black armor on her chest And back and it alternates between Glossy and matte black So that provides a subtle difference In texture Around her hips she has a crisscross belt With a red cobra emblem on the belt buckle That's a much needed splash of color On this figure That belt wraps around to the back And on the back of the belt We have the sheaths for the knives Her legs are all black without paint She has a leathery black uniform With glossy black thigh armor She has tall black boots That kind of blend in with the rest of the uniform And the boots have high heels And pointed toes These boots are similar to the boots on Akiko The other female movie figure we looked at The boots are similar but they are not the same In fact I don't think this baroness figure Reuses parts from any other figure That includes the other baroness figure These two figures do not share parts Even though they are trying to accomplish Basically the same thing They go about it in different ways Which of these baroness figures do I prefer I have to say I prefer the cobra island Baroness figure over the movie figure Now these movie figures are fine They're not bad in general I do like them And this is a fine baroness figure on its own But the cobra island target exclusive Baroness figure just has so much more going on for it There's more detail There are lots of subtle paint applications And the figure itself just seems more substantial The first baroness figure does not have an actress likeness So I can't praise it for that But just look at that face It's a great looking face And this looks like the baroness I would recognize this as the baroness Even if it wasn't connected to the body That's a great baroness figure So what we have here is a great baroness figure Next to an okay baroness figure So of course the great figure wins We have noticed with these movie figures And that is a kind of minimalism They do everything they can to capture the actor likeness But the rest of the figure is minimalist Minimal paint, minimal accessories And that's not usually what you want These are six inch figures You want more of what this larger scale can offer If there is a figure that can get away with minimalism It is the baroness You're going to want this figure to be mostly black Because that is the baroness's style All the way back to 1984 That was my review of the Snake Eyes G.I.
