These are all prototypes save Outback, Strato Viper, and Night Creeper. You can tell the others are non-production quality painted.
I dig all of these. I kinda wish they would have updated Wetsuit to use the upcoming "Dive Suit Duke" mold, though. The rest will look suitably awesome once they are properly geared up. If anything, Recondo is the lame duck here. |

I hope the vipers that good in person.
Favorite figure out of the sets. And the range viper seems to be a final product as well, sam. |

I really dislike the "let's not confuse the kids" thing about ripcord. That's stupid. Quit talking down to your audience. If you put classic g.i.joe on the package compared to the movie..problem solved. I mean what about the last few waves we got that said..from the tv series..from the comic..international..from resolute?

I dont understand how anyone can be negative on these sets..
I mean if you hate all the gi joe characters than what are you expecting hasbro to release that will make you happy? We finally get zap, outback, chuckles, RIPCORD, recondo, and wetsuit and some of you are complaining? Are you out of your mind? This is literally the best multi pack from the whole 25th anniversary excluding the first 2 5 packs. As previously mentioned there are no Destro, CC, SE, SS, or Duke and you guys are complaining? Im starting to see why some people say you guys just arent happy about anything. People will be getting the Cobra pack by the multiples, if all you want is mindbender you can probably pay $5 shipped to get him once all this happens. Quote:
I am really excited about these 7-packs! Honestly, I'd much rather get the figures like this than on single cards or packed with vehicles (which I don't care to buy). My only worry is Hasbro's recent QC issues as of late. It would suck if these sets turn up with missing accessories or other gaffs. My guess is that these will be up for pre-order in the next month or two and will then probably be released in early summer (June or July). If Hasbro did another set of 7-packs like these for X-Mas they'd really be on a winning roll! A lot of fan favorites were crossed off wish-lists with these 2 sets, but I'd still love to see the following in future sets (Joe set: Cover Girl/Low-Light/Footloose/Jinx/Dial-Tone/Law/Airtight) and (Cobra set: Zarana/Monkeywrench/Night-Viper/Techno-Viper/Zandar/Road Pig/Big Boa). If the way of the future for modern updates are these 7-packs then I am 100% happy and satisfied with that! Can't wait to see these guys decked out in all of their gear and with final paint apps.
also, how do you guys know these are coming BEFORE the movie?...evrything other non-movie product is supposedly "on hold till after the movie" |

They better be released before the movie lol...it'll be very disappointing to me if they're not. I don't think we'd see pics of them now if they weren't coming out until the fall or later...but I guess you never know with these guys.

If this is the last we'll see of ARAH until after the movie is over, Hasbro has chosen a really cool way to do it. I, personally, appreciate the fact that I don't have any version or repaint of a single one of these characters. There's no Pastel Scarlet or Duke with slightly darker eyebrows and a new hand gun or Cobra Commander in his grandmother's shawl and knee skirt . I do hope what ever sites get these take it easy on the shipping. If they're going to be as expensive as I think they are, then tacking on another 30 bucks to ship them is really unreasonable. I don't have a car and get most of my Joes from the net, so the gas money and time vs s&h gouging is pretty much irrelevant for me.
I thought we were getting a Night Viper? Oh, does anyone else think Zap looks like President Obama? |

It's all guesswork at this point, but I don't think they would have shown us this at Toy Fair if it wasn't going to be out until after the movie. I also think this is why it is an online exclusive so they can ship them out to us during the movie line while everything else is on hold (at retail at least). I still think these will come out right before the movie's release, maybe sometime in July. Guess we will know more in the next couple of months (this will probably be answered in the next Q&A session).
