These look pretty cool. I'll pick up a couple of the Crimson packs, and a Joe pack.

Glad to hear that the Nightwatch pack is due this weekend. Too bad I can't make a trip down to the US until the 8th. |

I'm digging all the packs so far. The Night Watch is a bet meh, but it's still a cool idea. Hell, I'll probably buy 2. I'll get the SE/Red Ninja set as well, because that SE rocks. I agree with others that the single carded RN looks *way* better than these guys, but oh well. I've got two of those, along with the four from the pack, and I'm done with RNs.
Moving on to the 3packs, the Duke/Hawk/Grunt is kinda neat. I mean hey, we finally get Grunt. Yeah, he probably should have been single carded(and who knows, he still might), but it's cool to get him here. Duke's still Duke, but I do like what they did with Hawk. Duke's torso with SE's legs and arms looks pretty cool, especially painted olive drab. The Crimson 3pk is interesting in that I thought they'd either go with the Twins repainted into CG colors along with a CG trooper, or 2 CG's and a Crimson Baroness. Silly me. While I don't mind another Cobra Commander, I think either of my options would have been a better choice. Oh well, here's hoping for that Crimson 5pk. Lastly we come to the "'Toon" pack. Cobra Commander(battle helmet), Cobra Trooper, and Cobra Officer. Definitely not a bad choice, and I don't know which figure they could have put in this set to replace CC. I like that it kinda cancels out the 'Toon wave 8 CC, because I wasn't going to buy him. Now I'll buy a couple of these sets so I have 'Toon troopers as well. I'll probably sell off the extra CC, as I'm going to start doing with some of the original 5pk figures(Duke, SE). Now if we could just see pics of the Firefly/Greenshirt pack and the Crimson Guard pack, I'd be happy. A lot of people are hoping that the FF/GS pack will include FF and the last 4 Original Joes we need(Zap/Steeler/Clutch/ShortFuse), but I'd rather just have more grunts and keep those 4 for something a little more special. Clutch should definitely come with a redone VAMP. Zap and Short Fuse should be single carded, while Steeler can come with the Mobat. That can't be that hard, can it? As for the CG 5pk, I've already said what I wanted to see, so I'll leave it at that. All in all, it's a great time to be a Joe fan.

Not what I was expecting but like I said in another thread, I'm gonna buy em all. Am I missing something? I consider myself well versed in Joe lore but where does that green pants version of Snake Eyes come from? I hated "Tomahawk" too. It's interesting he's going to be a Colonel again in this release, though. |

The Crimson pack is interesting but I'm not a fan of the Crimson Officer. The original trooper/officer/Commander pack is a must for me even though I have all of the singles (it just looks too awesome). The Joe pack I will pass on.
