considering how over the top Diamond pricing has been, I hope to see similar pre-orders pop up at BBTS soon. Crossing fingers...

Flint in drag is a pass for me. | |

And a spring-loaded launcher? Of course it's optional, but it's still something I'd hope Hasbro would have avoided.
Cobra Flint? Surprisingly good! I may get two and swap a regular trooper head with one to make some kind of Cobra "grease monkey".

The missile launcher is lame though. I hated it when they were introduced into the original line. I dont care if the weapons fire... I want them to look like actual weapons. | |

I like Leatherneck though, despite the return of Gung Ho's head (hope he has hair painted on back there!!) and the desert AWE Striker is a nice change.
And how come Duke only just get's his original gun back now?
