This second version of Sci-Fi (v2) was released in 1991 and discontinued in 1992.
A pretty decent update of an unusual figure from the 1986 line, this version of the former Laser Trooper turned “Directed Energy Expert” is dressed in midnight black with a high tech loadout. It is hinted in his file card that he is a bit obsessed with his work.
From The File Card:
DIRECTED ENERGY EXPERT
File Name: Fine, Seymour P. SN. 793-2919-8F29*
Primary Military Specialty: Laser Weapons Systems Operator Secondary Military Specialty: Electronic Instrument Repair
Birthplace Geraldine, Montana
Grade: E-4
Licensed to operate: Mobile Battle Bunker, Hammer, Avalanche
SCI-FI’s fascination with electronics and high tech laser optics forced him to take a leave of absence to complete his Master’s Degree in Electronic Engineering. By combining a laser weapon’s remote target designator, range-finder and an optical signaler, Sci-Fi was able to perfect an unparalleled defensive security system as part of his Masters’ thesis The program has since been adopted for field-testing by the Department of Defense under the designation XMLWS-2A.
Let’s face it. Sci-Fi is not the kind of guy you want to go to town with. He has no sense of humor and is only interested in things with integrated circuits or complex optics. On the other hand, Sci-Fi is the guy you want with you in the field. Not only can he hit targets at extreme range with his private arsenal of laser weapons, he can put a laser dot on a squad of tanks so they can be zapped by air strikes. His ability to repair electronics equipment is invaluable when you consider everything in the unit’s inventory has been built by the lowest bidder.
