Looking at TRU;s website this a.m. and saw this.

G.I. Joe The Rise of Cobra Basic Figure - Snow Serpent - Hasbro - Toys "R" Us (http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3909888)

Must be an old stock photo..???

I saw that this morning too. I decided not to order just in case it is the actual figure you will get. It looks like the DTC version.

That's the DTC Snow Serpent from couple years ago. Just using the wrong stock photo.

It's the ROC Snow Serpent but that other figure was still in their system so that photo went up on accident.

The funny part is that my TRU still carries that figure line in its store so I could get that Snow Serpent if I wanted him but I have ordered the SS online and it is the ROC version.

seems like ss and bench press are the only two not included in the 2-fer online?

Your store still has Dtc figures? That's crazy. I have not seen any of those in a Tru since 2007.

There are some TRUs that have no Joe collectors around them. There is one around Nashville i hit a few times a year, and i just want to cry because i never have enough money to get all of the goodies on the shelfs. I got my Night Watch 5-pack there, among other never seen in Memphis items...

If I get the wrong figure it's gonna be sent back. I almost didn't order him because of this.

you're going to get the item pictured

and if there's no image available, that's what you'll get too

an empty box w an 'i told you so' note from Geoffrey the Giraffe

its a twisted game.

You'll get the correct figure. They once had a G1 Swerve card art image posted for one of the later TF lines as well. Since then, the Neo-Vipers had the 12" Snake-eyes image for a while and XO:W Comic Deadpool had the movie figure posted.

Just bad site maintenance is all.

I ordered from TRU once based on Picture and not description and got what I deserved. I bet you get what is described. But I like that DTC figure alot. Just took some pics of him a few days ago actually...

Thats what I figured and the reason I still ordered the figure.

TRU.COM = repackers! lol. I'm sure the photo is just stock. Looks like other 'Tankers got the RoC Snow Serpent when they ordered it. Wish I had the funds for both exclusives :(
