I'm interested to see what the official retail is going to be. BBTS doesn't usually mark up too badly..<coff coff firebat coff coff> but since the army builder TRU five packs are $25 these should be too right? The original 5 packs were $25. But things have gone up of late as we all know. We'll see. Pictures will do a lot for us, since if they royally suck then they're going to warm shelves.

I thought the original price was kinda high. Still, I agree that 30 bucks for just two comic packs is kinda steep. I caved and bought the case. Figure I can get rid of the repeats from previous waves somewhere. |

They did sell well, at least in my area, and were very hard to find until they went into their (?)th pressing. With lots of driving I managed to get both 1st sets on the first day they were out here (Joe set with figs in different places and all that.) The set that flopped hard was the Cobra Legions. It went on clearance most places (half price at Target and so on). I have a feeling these will be made in mass quantities, which is good if the figs are good.
Anyone think they will have music boxes?? They other three sets had them.

I don't know about the music boxes. They were neat in the first three, but I can't help but think they'd only drive up the cost in any further sets. Besides, what other songs are there to only get five seconds of?

I remember when I first saw the old 5 packs I thought they were the *coolest* thing ever. I still think they are some of the coolest releases.
Question for you OG's... is the old GI Joe 5pack the *exact* same thing as the wave that was released afterward? All of the exact same accessories etc..? Or were there any differences? |
