The Cobra Trooper, I think, is just the Flint Cobra Trooper with the Cobra guys head on.

And Scrap Iron is just the the normal Scrap Iron. I thought he was supposed to have the scars anyways.

And everything else looks pretty much lame. Lame repaint garbage. They couldn't even fix Gung Ho? After all the time they had to do so? Wow..

More Snake Eyes. More Storm Shadow. More Cobra Commander. Wow.......so exciting.....

I like the Duke, but I will buy almost any Duke..he's one of my faves. I really like the repaint of Gung Ho...much more military looking than the turqouise vest.

I also dig the 'metallic' Deep Six. Way better than flat gray.

Edit: To the OP, thank you for the post. Don't let the whining drive you away. Many of us appreciate the info and the pics.

why are you not excited? Afterall, this is what Hasbro thinks we and the kids want....if anything, these are gonna clutter the shelves with disgraceful repaints and our beloved "new" characters continue to sit on the backburner...seems like the rest of the way is gonna be franken repaints from here on...guess after wave 11,I am done! thanks for saving me money Hasbro

Thanks for the pics and news!

I like the figures, and i will get them, but i was a bit saddened by the Resolute Duke figure. I was really hoping for something special. I'm not sure what though... I expected maybe Duke torso, revised duke arms, Beachhead legs, and the new comic pack Beachhead vest.
Again, not sure what i was expecting. They could turn out great, who knows. I really hope they put some attention to the Resolute Scarlett figure. They need to redo her legs, same with baroness.

Everyone cried that too when the wave 8 pics came out. I was one of them, but we all ate humble pie a week or two after. Sometimes you wish it was just a custom you saw though.

so why would they come out with an entire new gi joe series, and to promote it use repaints of existing figures. that doesnt make sense
