Thanks to a crap budget I certainly won't be picking up every ROC figure. This has left me to decide to at least try and get one version of each character. I just don't know which to go for! Anyone else going this way?

I'm in a similar situation myself, that is why I'm avoiding vehicles and playsets pretty much altogether.
Right now, I'm sticking to just in-movie characters as opposed to getting one of everybody. So I do have both Scarletts and Dukes so far, but others I'm waiting till I see the movie to see who is in it, even in small roles.

I've been only buying figures so far, leaving the vehicles for a later date. But im mostly buying Joes with the blue camo so far (i love it), except for desert Duke and Heavy Duty (heavy weapons specialist) and 1 of each Cobra figure. But we only have the first lot of figures here so far.

I LOVE the Desert Duke...but he just doesn't match the other Joes! I think I prefer the React HD...one small victory. I'm also thinking on only getting Neo Vipers...none of this Crimson Shenanigans.

But it makes most sense to me. If I'm buying movie toys, I want the characters from the actual movie, in the various looks they will be seen in and I only want the accurate ones. So far I have Snake Eyes Snake Eyes (Paris Pursuit): Not really movie accurate, only the Ninja Commando figure is but he's my favorite character in the mythos so sue me I bought it ... LOL Duke (Reactive Armor) Duke (Desert Ambush) Ripcord (Delta 6 Suit) Storm Shadow (Paris Pursuit) Storm Shadow (Ninja Mercenary) Destro Cobra Commander Scarlett (Desert Ambush) |

I spent $33.41 for 4 figures. I got Destro, normal looking Snake Eyes and Stormshadow with his hood. And Cobra Commander, think from now on i'll just buy 1 or 2 at a time. I'd grab Snake Eyes with his trenchcoat they didn't have em at Walmart. I wanna get Baroness, and the Neo Vipers. Would like to get Zartan, but not sure on the other guys yet.

I'm assuming its because of the Desert camo versus the Blue Joe Camo.
I am trying to get all of the Blueshirts (blue camoed guys) and all of the Reactive armors. I'll likely get 1-2 SEs, 1 SS, 1 Baroness, etc. |
