To be honest, all the PoC figures I've seen I've liked. I plan on army building that Firefly since he comes with the mask. You're right though, that Low-Light is badass. Hasbro did a good job removing those spring launchers, and putting more accessories in. Even my 5 year old doesn't use those things. |

And I totally agree with the spring loaded crap from roc. I was choking on those till I parlayed some for fodder to a fellow customizer. |

Ah, I'm hedging my bets and hope to find them at Ross next year for $16.99. If they show up I'll buy every damn one they have. =)

I saved all of my Legos for 5 years until my son was ready. Not to be pessimistic, but I don't expect to find many Alley Vipers. Those bastards are going to be scalper bait just like the Pit Commandos were. Last edited by Brcall; 06-21-2010 at 12:50 PM.. |

The ONLY thing I used the spring launchers for was to harass my wife with them. She likes to read e-books on her laptop, and I would sneak into the room and shoot them over the screen. Needless to say she's probably more relieved Hasbro took them out than I am.

Did some investigating about the BATS at DG. Turns out...if they fall out of the system...they have to dispose (as destroy) the item. No mark down...no freebie...no exceptions....not even to a charity.
So those BATS you saw are most likely in the trash now. You ought to see what is in the dumpster behind the store...LOL. But seriously....this has made me hate DG now for not even donating the stuff to Goodwill or something like Target does. |

It's understandable why he was one of your favorites, because he's a cool figure. I plan on buying as many as I can find, but I'm not expecting much and that's why I haven't made plans for army building him. I would think that Firefly will be more readily available, and I think his masked head fits in with the RoC Neo-Vipers better.

Walmart sells a lot to close-out/salvage stores. I saw an article that said Target donates more to charity than any other retailer. |
