Did not see him at all or any from his wave.
Shipwreck was good for this: http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...bite-redo.html Did you find your Frostbite in the area or buy it online? |

Does anyone know what the small green accessories that come with several ROC figs are supposed to be? Desert Duke, Baroness and Storm Shadow all come with the piece that looks like muzzle flash. In the package, I thought that was what they were but upon opening them realized that they dont go into the ends of the guns, so WTF are they?

I think it's connected to the nanomites in the movie since it's green and the nanomites are represented in the trailers with a green color.

It's the nanomite warheads. I dunno why they all have them in some capcity (like Baroness's HUGE grey missile launcher has its green accent as well). It is only in one scene we have seen in the trailers so far, it's the projectilce Elmo the ninja shoots out of his super soaker...
I made that Frostbite out of ROC Shipwreck parts...

I'm sure the MASK helmet helps with that thought. ;) Hasbro better put together a MASK extension line to Joe. I really don't want to make some to expand Tracker's crew and enemy roster.
The only use I've seen for movie HD is using the head to make Big Daddy from Land of the Dead. I'm not making Big Daddy. :P I'd imagine you could use the Reactive armor to build MASK's Hondo MacLean, depending on which version you want. You can find several different color schemes for the characters here: Super Toy Archive Collectible Store: M.A.S.K.: Action Figures

I went to 3 Targets, 3 Wal-Marts and 1 Toys R Us today and didn't see him at any of the stores that had ROC figs. None of the Walmarts had figs out. 1 Target had a huge surplus (Denton) and Lewisville Vista Ridge had some but not enough for an end-cap. Vista Ridge TRU had a decent amount. I found Shipwreck and Cover Girl there. Hopefully that wave surfaces since there are alot of us looking for that figure!

LOL no he dosen't come with that helmet, it's matt trakkers 25th joe hat I put on him to hide his fuggly face...However the Reactive armor HD is soooo much better than the green turd one...that HD figure is horrible looking...it's Notorious B I G lmao.
I am doing some newer high end "modding" the last few days. I am working with the video game Crysis trying to make some Joe figures and Cobra troopers LOL. I love editing this game it would have been a pefect engine for them to make the GI JOE game off of but I think Hasbro is affraid of people using thier logos and all that jazz to make mods and levels. I made a Vice City mod once that replaced all of the Police with Crimson Gard troopers. Was cool to see them repel outta the police helo's when you got 4 stars.

So at about 8:00pm today(July 4th), the new Target RoC Displays were up here in Denton, TX with what looked like nothing yet sold....
They had two displays that were both toy aisle endcaps, one with 3 3/4" collections and the other with noisy randoms and 12" figures. For the 3 3/4" figs, there were all three vehicles types: about 6 each of all 4 Alpha types(ATV,Snow,Drill,Ugly Armadillo), about 4 each of the 2 Bravo types(Gunship,Hummer), and around 10+ of the Echo type(Night Raven) For the Single Cards they only had Collection 1 Wave 1 figures: 18 Neo Vipers 17 Destros 16 Dukes (Desert Gear) 16 Baronesses 16 Snake Eyes 14 Storm Shadows I hope that the line does well and does not flop like GvsC :o( With NTX being such a highly competitive collector area and to see untouched pegs @ the end of the second day is a little disheartening. All in all, it simply makes the hunt less fun. Questions, Has anyone found any variants yet? A few of the weapons have different #s on them. (i.e. Snake Eyes had a #2 on his sword and the Desert Duke had #s 1-4 on his weapon), yet I could not find any better noticable variants. Does anyone know if the exclusives will be on frustratingly hidden Checkout Aisle Endcaps like the Wave 1 25th Vehicles were? |
