If these are the real deal, then the only one I will be buying is Major Bludd. I just hope that these are prototypes and he will be tweaked befoitting the shelves. Knowing our luck, though, a case of 8 will be 2 PP Officers, 2 CCs, 2 Roadblocks, 1 Baroness and 1 Major Bludd.

Hey, Baroness is actually looking somewhat better. The hair is straighter and they've made the glasses not look like they're melted onto her face.
And I really hope they're going to fix Bludd's mouth. That is just ludicrously sad.

Some things make me a little wary of the authenticity of these:
-You can see an outline around the CC'c Cobra logo like it is a decal. -Roadblocks sleeves are painted on to his bare arms. -Bludds arm looks to be a swap from an older figure. Last edited by Sarge; 01-18-2008 at 07:11 PM.. |

If true, this has to be one of the most underwhelming waves to date. Furthermore, we were told that Major Bludd was being held back for 2 waves to get him perfect. Yet, he's a freakin' repaint? I'm hoping this is a clever hoax

These are probably early prototypes. Im sure hasbro wouldn't delay bluud just so they can slap zartan's body on him. No way. I'll leave final judgement til I see the final product.

It seems wave 8 is another filler wave.

I think these are legit, but probably prototypes. I can't imagine they'd do something as blatant as leave a Dreadnok skull on Bludd's belt.
Granted, I'll still get the wave if they do, but...

nice pics of customs...
look at the cobra symbol on CC and the cobra officer, theres a lot of 'dithering' so someone cloned it in photosjop, major bludd's paint job on his vest and helmet looks way too reflective and glossy, not the matte finish paint of the 25th joe line, roadblock vest seems way too bulky and sculpeed on. if its the real thing they would make a plastic mold then strap it on like the other figures. |

Major bludd has always been one of my favorite characters. So right now i'm in shock. This had better not be the final product. His boots are all wrong, as well as Zartan's skull buckle? If they were really planning on going this cheap, you'd think they'd at least give him the Crimson Guards legs, boots etc. I think it has to be a fake. They even took more time in sculpting a Hiss Driver. Why wouldn't they at least attempt at giving Bludd a somewhat unique sculpt?
