Got my set preordered. I ususally don't do this, as I've had extremely good luck finding figures. Just this past Saturday I walked into TRU and they had a Shipwreck, Hooded CC, and all of Wave 5 plus an extra SE, Flash, and CG. So there's no doubt I'll find these in stores, but with a wave this awesome, I'm not taking a chance.
As far as my thoughts on the wave: Duke w/ Jetpack: I'm with you guys that this is straight out of the movie. Slight repaint of Duke(not as dull as v1 nor as bright as comic pack) with a green JUMP pack. I don't get why they didn't give the JUMP to either a redone Stalker(he has no hole in his back) or a single carded GrandSlam(w/ new head). Oh well. Spirit: Can't wait to see him and Freedom(none of that stupid "Billy" nonsense from Sigma6). SE v4: I'm hoping it's an all black repaint of v2, but if it's the skimask version, then fine. I'd really dig an all black ninja w/ red Arashikage symbol on his arm. Major Bludd: Oh hell yeah! Then they can repaint him and Baronness for a comic pack. I also hope his helmet is removable, but I'm not banking on it. Wild Bill: I'm still not sure on the driver w/o the vehicle thing(as no Dragonfly has been announced), but I'm sure it'll be a cool figure. I might go the same route as a lot of you and get the BBi Apache. If all else fails, I've got the NAC sitting around here. Hiss Driver: Speaking of the driver w/o a vehicle...wait, he *does* have a vehicle! Very cool, but why not put the driver out with the vehicle? I bet they'll be hitting at the same time, but still. Viper: Last but certainly not least, by far the coolest Cobra trooper ever, the Viper. I'd really like to see a removable helmet and Beachhead's head underneath. That probably won't happen, but it'd be cool. Can't wait for this figure.

I am most happy with the news of Major Bludd and Spirit. The Viper could make me very broke.

Very nice. Just preordered one but hopefully I can scrape together enough money to get the case. If not I'll tell my wife that it'll be a birthday present since May is right around the corner.
