Ralph "Nunchuk" Badducci Unboxing and Review G.I. Joe Classified Series Ninja Force Hasbro Pulse 

Looks dope to me, aside from the wrist issue and some sparse paint. An half-hour with silver + dark grey paints and he'll look great. Love how he can load up with his gear unlike Kamakura.

An honest, appreciated review of Nunchuk and his accessories!

I don’t know I think the figure looks great. It’s a shame about the QC issues. I am looking forward to getting this figure in the collection.

This figure was one of my most anticipated figures in this year, what a disapointement it's turning out be ...

I think the figure looks great, Hasbro has never used metal as a material except maybe an early Darth Vader release but I wasn't expecting them to use it for nunchuck. All I want for them to do is to give me a decent ninja figure and I'm good as long as I can fix those issues with paint. the QC sucks tho.

Thanks for the review i'm gonna have to play with the this figures joints in Water once i get him! With the huge demand of G.I Joe Classified i'm sure alot of us collectors gonna deal with QC Issues!

Great review !

Honestly, I only started buying these toys from the local hardware shop since last year. I'm going to be 40 in December & I'm not complaining at all about the way new toy figures are being made recently. I had the ninja lineup of Storm shadow, Nunchuk, Tee-jay-bang, Slice, Dice & Dojo as a kid in the 90's, so hell yeah. Sadly I've bought a few figures that had some discrepancies, but that just gives me extra parts to toy with & create my own characters... One cashier at the store asked me if I buy these toys just to keep them in the box to be worth something in the future or play with them... Toys are ment to be opened up & played with & not left in a box for auction.

After watching the Shartimus review from the Marvel Legends folks, they gave away a bit of trade secrets for how they develop characters. Essentially, they use a give/take method between characters. For every new mold they have to make, they use re-use or lack of paint apps in another area. They do this to balance out cost. So, one character might have smaller profit margin and another had a larger profit margin so that together they balance things out. With this character, it was going to a situation of new molding for accessories, so they had to forgo paint apps, while some other figure in the line got A WHOLE lot! Which really tells you how important the G.I.Joe team considered "Nunchuck" as a main-line character. Ugh....QC issues are coming back :( I was hoping they were coming back to greatness as the wave prior to this was done very well. Also, if he is based on Storm Shadow, does he have a swivel joint at the glove, like Storm Shadow does?

Looks really amazing

Have you tried to swap the Eel ninja like head, onto this body? I'm curious if the blacks match...

great review bro! nunchuk is the only ninja that fits in gi joe and the one I m getting. I mostly stick to the 82 - 83 team, but I make an exception for him. no way am I going to get the 400 + characters at $45 Can a pop... I m getting the very best and essential, a fit and small elite team. you missed no detail, are critical and demanding, as you should. this is what I want in a review. now I know what to expect from the fig. I mostly make temporary scenes in a lighted desk, so he will do. he will look fab opposed to storm shadow. good show bro.

thanks for the early look. unfortunately, Hasbro and Amazon arent thanking you. cancelling that pre-order. ill likely get him, but, itll be on sale. (if Stalker can hover in the $15-17 range, im guessing this guy will do the same) this figure just cant justify $25.

Thanks as always for the review! I'm truly sorry to hear how genuine your disappointment is. Hopefully a 3D printer comes to save the day with new gear, although that shouldn't have to be the case.

Does that bandana come off, if you want the Storm Shadow, standard mask look?

looks great apart from the qc issue

Thanks for the review Alpha 5 (hay,hay).

Is it me or is it that marvel legends photo real face scans are starting to look better than the classified line? I preordered this fig and it seems like he is really cheap....🤔🙄🤔😶😶 Also my copper head face looks mildly cartoon-ish! Anyways thanks for the review and yeah I wish they did put more care in his nun chucks.

For some reason I really dislike losing my Storm shadow. Makes me nervous about this one.

I like the design of him but agree that the lack of paint apps holds him back. Some extra hand options would've been cool.

You should be able to fix the fist by immersing it in hot water for a bit.

Some people ask too much for a 24.99 figure. It looks fine

It’s weird the claws didn’t get silver paint, especially considering the sword did, so they wouldn’t have to add another paint mask.🤷‍♂️

I'll get it on sale at Target

Man. If you don't like it you can send it to me. I'd love to take it away from you.

I look forward to getting this figure, but lately these newer figures look like part of the Fortnite line with the lack of "realistic printing" of the face/eyes and the lack of weathered paint on the torsos.

Damn that sucks. I was looking forward to him.

I don't think those are straps. They look like the edge of his tunic.

The paint budget seems to have went towards the stripes. It's a shame. Comparing the recent stuff it seems like they gave us paint in the first few waves. I still want it but man. A shame.

Great looking fig but hot garbage in the articulation area, with multiple frozen joints on mine. Not to mention that the head pops off way too easily. So much for consistency in the quality of the Classified figs.

i think they releasing these figures too plain too basic on purpose to do better ones in the future and hopefully more scifi/modern...but i think they should just do it right from the 1st place instead of later.

A ninja called ralph badducci? Are these guys for real?

Tripwire has that weird overly made up look too, I'd wish they'd stop it they look like Silent Movie era actors now.

It’s crazy that the OG version looks better.
