Thanks for the history lesson, Oliver. I knew about the OSS becoming the CIA and SF, but not the rest of it. As I recall, there was much resistance to the wearing of the green beret until JFK pronounced it good.

Good Day today. Went to the TX Comic Con here in San Antonio, Met Larry Hama & got his autograph, found Shipwreck {v16} & Cobra Commander {v50} while looking around the floor.
As I was running around town doing errands found Cobra Commander {Retaliation, Black}, Snake-Eyes & Storm Shadow. |

Nice find Darkhawk.
Just curious if anyone is using the Retaliation trooper as Master Chief John-117 from Halo? As of now I've decided to use him as a US navy EOD. I took the mohawk head and put it on the Retaliation Duke to make Effects, who will be another Navy EOD.

I have yet to really pick up any Retaliation. Haven't seen the Trooper around here.
Only ones would be intersted in adding to my forces would be Trooper, Night Ops Roadblock and Beachhead. BTW, look for pictures of the Wave 2 3-pack Sgt. Airborne soon.

Yeah wasn't it front paged? Airborne looks pretty good. Mouse looks a little lame. I'm guessing it will come with Duke SE or RB as the 3rd figure?
That Dojo three pack has been my favorite thing so far. I'm using that Roadblock as well Dojo (ninja force) also a big guy and bald with a goatee. I use the Beachhead as Sneak-Peek. Mostly gray and is a Ranger. I have a better Kamakura custom so I use this one as Bushido.

I love the Beachhead. Colors are great. And the Rock/RB figures are cool but I wish they didn't mold the gun launcher handle into his hand.

Did everyone see the concept figs? Man, I would have killed for those NOMADs and Raven's Flight figs. I would have used the Raven's Flight as AFSOC troopers. For shame Hasbro..sigh.

Well you never know. The concept is there and its existing molds. Plus this is the first time concept figures had matching filecards. It looks like they are leaning more and more toward JOE troop builders. Which one is the nomads?
