Agree with the Crimson Guard, The mask does look off. Do you think the 25th crimson guard are better figures? I really haven't decided how I will build my army of Crimson Guards....
If anyone is building a cobra trooper invasion, I have one for trade... I am looking to trade it complete for a Black Ninja, or DG Cobra Trooper, or a Marshalls Trooper.. Last edited by Lab Rat; 02-12-2013 at 12:27 AM.. |

Another bummer is the "ultimate" Cobra Commander. He has a big ass melon head too, and I hoped for a chrome visor on the helmet so I will be sticking with my 25th masked and helmeted Commanders.

Yeah the Chrome commanders are the best way to go.. I actually like the Peg warming poc cobra commander that still sits all over walgreens.... But I still am not saying that he couldn't be replaced... Whoever is running the show at Hasbro really bites.. These new figures are almost all re-used parts.. Also, Isn't the Cyber Viper basically the Wraith? I may just have to buy one of each on these guys just to sight them for myself.. And then trade or sell them... Maybe tomorrow I will grab this wave, and get down to judging.. I do like the Black Ninja though.. The only problem i had with this figure is really the swords.. Hasbro couldn't be more lazy than to not paint a sword silver...lol.. I hope they have a good excuse for this, and I don't wanna hear words, I want to see results on something that has yet to be revealed.. Maybe they don't really care much for the movie figures either.. Maybe they need money to bring us more goods.. But this line should def be in good shape, I mean no other toyline out there could be doing as well as G.I. Joe with all the trooper builders... It just seems impossible for the line to die off.. I really don't think anything can stop this franchise..

I hope Ultimate Duke comes with that interchangable head so I can give him the cooler mask and helmet head so I can troop build more Joes. Also, so I can throw Channing Tatum's stupid mug out the window.

I thought the Cyber Ninja Viper guy was supposed to be a Wraith repaint, but I've seen two different pictures of him. On has the wraith head/visor, and the other has a motorcycle helmet that doesn't look removable.
Does anyone know the deal with that? |

News to me.. But I do know that the one I saw was the same head as the wraith, and the mask lifted over his head with the same face as the Wraith

I decided to trade my joe dealer all of my ROC single carded Eels for his shipment of Black Ninjas.. I think I came out on top on that one..... My work is done with this wave.. I also returned a Combat Crusier to target on 60 yesterday, Don't know If It's still there, but I bought two of them for 16 bucks from my seller since I paid 31 bucks for that one vehicle. Seems like someone cleared out the stores here in tampa on all the troopers from target ect.. But I can't hate, cause I did the same thing last year with the first wave.... I just hope it was a collector...

Same thing with Dark Ninja, he was supposed to include a black version of the POC w3 Tornado Kick Storm Shadow head, but that got scrapped too. More cost cutting measures I'm sure.

Ain't that the truth. also to note colton, and flint have heads larger than a watermelon..
These figures suck ass.. I know eveyone wants to get new figures, but If you save your cash, and wait for the goods to come, You would probably be better off.. I think the new Chopper that's coming soon runs around 40 bucks, so that's not bad at all.. Toy fair has revealed some stuff worth the wait.. The Night landing Raft as well..... to bad we can't get the Eels in single cards.. But I'm saving for like 20 Rafts or so... Then we will have Kwinn, Crimson Guards, and the data viper.. |

Man Im having an existencial dilema here. I love joes and for the last 8 years its all I've collected. No Starwars, no transformers, no marvel or DC, nothing else!
But now with all this lame ass, weak-at-the-knee figures Im really not in the mood. I still love Joes! Im not talking bout quiting. Is just that I feel like the new figures are already old. Hasbro really screwed the pooch by delaying that movie. We have been looking at the same exact figures for almost 2 years now. anticipation dies down when the newest thing you see since Joecon of 2012 is a 26 year-old helicopter. Also the lack of support man! Hasbro collaborated to make War and Fall of Cybertron and what the hell did we get? ROC the game! And look at the toys they gave TF fans. FoC Bruticus, MP-10 Optimus, FoC Soundwave with all his minions, Now Grimlock and just look at the line-up for next year. Tripplechangers and Metroplex! We get a red Samurai, An eskimo and a Data-Viper that we saw at a Toyfair back in 2010 and a new-old cobra commander. Its tough being a joe-fan.
