Flagg) But then I suppose we'd have 2 Generals, huh?

wow, Cobra Commander in BOTH sets, that's a waste; should have been the Hasbro-mention Crimson Baroness their. or the twins and a standard CG. The Crimson "Officer" and Commander are an eye-sore too me, easy pass.
Not wild about how Grunt turned out, his head is really wierd looking in that shot, and i don't get the Duke as Hawk, although switch out Comic Pack Hawks webgear with him and we might be talking (this really should have been Hawk v.2) I wish they'd do a new Headsculpt for Duke if they're going to get this much milage out of him. I really need another helmet CC like i need a rash, but i really like the paint on the officer and Trooper, so i'll probably get that set. Edit: oh, nice, red-emblemed trooper and silver Officer (he can boss my one silver emblemed trooper around, lol)

I don't think I need to pre-order these. I've always been able to find most Star Wars exclusives from TRU. With all the troops we are going to get I'm starting to think that I shouldn't have even bothered to troop build myself with the single packs.

I really like the Crimson Set. CC looks cool all in red, and the CG's are no brainer troop builders. I always liked the Crimson Set of ARAH that came out a few years, so this is a nice update.
Grunt is about what I expected Hasbro to do, but I wish they would start making some new webbing to go with the Snake Eyes mold, just to give some of the new characters a little different look. And with this Duke included I can definitely pass on the Wave 7 version now. Am I just seeing things or do Hawk and Grunt seem to be sporting new arms (or at least non SE arms)? |

oh, and would anyone NOT rather have the updated mold Tiger Force Flint in original colors in this pack rather than a Duke that's practically identical to the wave 7 version?

the beginning of the end, HAS-GREED has gone too far and started dummying down the product. a red CC, wtf, cannot believe the missed opportunity...
the crimson guard 3 pk should have come with one officer and 2 troopers... the cobra 3 pack should just be 3 troopers in red cobra insignia with RED masks... no more CC !! nerd rant !!! why can't they just get it right and do a iron granadier 5 pack, viper 5 pack, or BATs 5 pack ???? those will sell like hot cakes !!! these will be strictly for the kids, now, toys r us doesn't have my money unfortunately for these items eventhough they need it real bad... oh what could have been.... |
