I got my DVD Greatest Battles pack today. Got to say this set is really nice with a few great surprises.
Duke - Well this figure is very basic, new "yelling" head sculpt but in the end, not much to get excited over. Alpine - GREAT figure. Perfect sculpt, new weapons. If I was a Joe fan, Id be even more impressed by this figure. Cobra Commander w/ CLAW - Cobra Commander's new head sculpt and chrome finish is great!! Cobra Commander is perfect and the little bomb he comes with is a great little bonus. His parachute is a nice touch, but to remove it you have to do ALOT of work. Cobra Trooper - VERY NICE. New head sculpt w/ hair!!! The helmet is also much better, more solid, better overall scuplt. The parachute/webgear is great and also would be great to give to AVAC to replace his missing chute. The Camera is nice, simple but another nice bonus. The final piece to the MASS Device is very nice, the crystal is a seperate piece and very nice. Overall this is a great pack. I hope the new trooper head/helmet is going to be a running change, its a perfect update. I will be adding pics of the MASS Device FULLY COMPLETED tomorrow with the missing two elements later tonight after I open my Wave 12 figs.

I cannot stand the "yelling" Duke. What a stupid thing to do for a head sculpt. Ugh....
If any figure but Alpine, and the rest of the MASS Device wasn't there, I would probably pass on this set cause of the yelling Duke.

You and me both, Eddie. You and me both. WHY they didn't release Alpine and Bazooka in a comic 2-pack, I'll never know.
I think it was the buddy factor, but those 2 have been 2 of my all-time favorite Joes, due to their comradery in the show. I never had Bazooka as a kid, and now I don't have a 25th Alpine... I just got a set preordered from HTS, how the hell are folks getting these guys already?!?! And wave 12? I got Wave 10 from BBTS and HTS just a week or so ago, damn the luck! Haha. |

I'm thinking he means that he is a mostly Cobra fan/collector.

that duke has got to be the most ridiculous-looking thing i've seen in quite some time... like the jet pack straps though.
i like the chrome, but CC's head looks a little too big. maybe it's the pic, maybe it'll look different in hand. not really digging the new trooper helmet as the new trooper helmet, but it will look great on arctic troppers IMO. alpine. meh. i'm mainly a cobra collector. probably just trade him off... maybe whole, maybe parts. i'll probably be waiting 'til december anyway (grumble, grumble) |
