I repainted the eye area on a ROC Destro since I don't like the look of the human eyes peeking out at me... Since I don't quite have the right color of green to color the pupils I will have to mix a lighter shade until I get it right. No use buying a whole bottle of light green if all I need it for is to paint one figure's eyes...
I also gave Destro the Duke M-16 with grenade launcher since that says "chaos" to me and Destro looks like he enjoys making big booms and lots of damage. Placed the Strato-Viper gray pistol in the shoulder holster. Now the figure looks a lot more like Resolute Destro or Battlefield Destro. I like it.

Stopped by Wal-Mart in Orland Park on the way home and picked up Reactive Armor Duke and Scarlett, and PP Storm Shadow (the unmasked one - pretty cool looking.)

Yeah their starting to show up here and there, and I will restate I don't think there will be any hard to find figures. at least not compared to what it was like with the 25th line.

Who knows if they will ever get to them in a while. The first couple of waves were massive. I think they outnumber Star Wars & Transformers put together!

Once I get the Target and Wal*Mart exclusives then I think I'll be done with this line. The Pit Commando is cool looking but that's probably going to be the one figure everyone is looking for.
With the Cobra Island sets on the way it looks like what used to be called the 25th anniversary line is officially extinct. Hasbro can say these current figures are a mix of both lines but Shipwreck and Deep Six feel more like straight movie characters and kind of throw my existing collection off just a bit. Oh well. I'm glad the movie stuff is exciting the collectors so maybe G.I. Joe will stick around for a while...

I dont think anything we have got yet is meant to show a mix of 25th line in the movie collection. Im betting for the next 3 to 6 months all we will see are the movie figs.
Im betting in early 2010 we will see the mix in...resolute, comic packs, etc. Thanks for the info Joe. I know both of those collections are out, now just to find them. I knew the 7 packs would show up for preorder and be out 2 weeks later...July 16th is the date they will be out!!! Ordered my 9 7 packs...here is what I have extras of - 4 Mindbenders 2 Range Vipers 1 StratoViper 1 Recondo 1 Outback 1 Hit and Run 1 Zap 1 Chuckles 1 Freefall
