These figures look exciting, but what is more exciting is that it is obvious we will be getting shockwave from the design of those firefly accessories, also it would not surprise me to see deep six or cutter spin off from that shipwreck.

First impressions:
Firefly: This is the color he should have been with the first release. I just hope they don't lighten him up between now and when these get released. Storm Shadow: Looks pretty cool I guess. Not super excited about this one. Copperhead: Pure awesome. Shipwreck: I don't like the blue hat, but figure looks good otherwise. Nice vest Duke: At first glance, I thought this was supposed to be Grunt. Not feeling this figure that much, but he's not terrible. Red Star: I only just started reading the old Marvel comics a month or so ago. So, while I know who he is, I have no nostalgia or love for this character. He looks cool though In summary, I will buy them all because I am a completist and I need serious help...help me |

It's cool to see word of these coming out so early, esp with the high-quality pics.
I dig the backpacks with SS &SE, but enough with the two of them! |

I just realized this. This may be the first wave in the 25th line that doesn't have a Snake Eyes figure? Is this a sign of the apocalypse? Is the sky falling? Hath Hell frozen over?

I agree. I'm by far the furthest from a Joe-head but shouldn't some other figures have come before Red Star? I will be buying the heck out of whatever is made so if they make a two pack of two of the kids from the 80's commercials I will buy it. "Look a Cobra Battle Station!"

Guess I'll add my 2 cents:
Firefly: Excellent figure, great accessories and I'm digging the darker camo and the red NVGs(?). I'm still up in the air if I'll use him to make one "ultimate" or not - like was mentioned above. Guess I'll have to see how the production version turns out. I think he's gonna have a little trouble getting that particular batch of luggage past TSA at the airport though... SS: At this point I could care less about this one. I've already got three of him plus the red clone. I'd likely turn around and sell him loose on ebay. Copperhead: This figure looks fantastic and very true to the original. Just please Hasbro, give the poor guy some weapons, and not something circa 1950 please. Shippy: He looks better than the original, but I'll have to see how the paint is to decide if he stays or gets sold on ebay. And a gun might be nice, or are we just supposed to use one of the extras from the single carded? Oh well, I guess he can't hold it in his right hand anyway. Didn't see the need to buy the original, wouldn't buy this one if it weren't packaged w/ Copperhead. Duke: Version 1 had a Vietnam era M-203 so I guess why not follow that up with a Vietnam era M-16A1? His uni(tard) looks like it was meant for perhaps Grunt (I see that was mentioned before I finished this). Can someone get this poor man a belt? I really don't get this figure at all. What a waste... Red Star: Don't know much about this guy and don't care to. Good thing he has that WWII era Sovietski sub-machine gun though. Marauder John must be having a great year so far filling in for Hasbro's bizarre weapons choices. Talk about great timing. Rock on, buddy! Again, to me this fig is just another complete waste. No chance I'm buying this set. Last edited by thunderdan19; 01-10-2008 at 01:52 PM.. |

But it is nice to see a break from the Snake Eyes overload we had with the first wave of each the single and comic packs being loaded, not to mention fillers in other cases. |
