The more I see the more let down I get. I'm just really not impressed with the upcoming waves. When they start off with figures like Thunder and Heavy Metal (Rampage), which are pretty true to the originals thrown in to please the collectors and in subsequent lines they give us these garish Frankenstein repaints. They resemble the character pretty much in name only.
I was really excited to see what gems Hasbro would be rolling out for us, but short of the playsets... I'm disappointed.

As long as they fix Charbroils articulation where he can move his arms a little better and hold that flame thrower... I think I can cope with this!

I like the Night Adder! The Red Fang Ninja though? I'd rather start collecting Hot Wheels than buy him.

Yeah it looks like it's just the torso and backpack that come from Blowtorch. I think Charbroil looks pretty good. Where's that helmet from? It's reminds me of Copperhead, but it also looks like Resolute BP Duke's. I'm also liking the Night Adder and Kamakura figs.

Near as I can tell, the hemlet is all new.
However, it gives me hope we'll see an Airtight before long. |

I agree with SS, it looks like Resolute 5 pack Duke's helmet with a visor added. It works though.

So, these new carded figures are going to be Collection 1 Wave 4?
