Summary
The Fall 2017 NYCC Exclusive Classic Red Skull figure uniquely captures his 1941 debut look in a green jumpsuit, complete with a Hydra armband and detailed WWII-era accessories including a flamethrower with fuel tanks and the Cosmic Cube, which glows in the dark. It offers two highly detailed interchangeable head sculpts and six hands tailored for various iconic poses and weapons, distinguishing it from the standard trench coat version. The figure's smaller, collector-friendly packaging and compatibility with the broader One:12 Collective line make it a sought-after, well-executed homage to the Golden Age Red Skull.

Cons

- Left ankle joint prone to popping off, requiring adjustment or tightening
- Slightly sloppy paint on teeth on one head sculpt (minor)
- Cosmic Cube accessory is a simple translucent block with minimal detailing (though it glows in the dark)
- No flame effect accessories included for flamethrower weapon
