Wave 2 is unchanged from what was solicited last spring. As is, I'm pretty sure wave 1 and 2 is the SAME stuff Hasbro had prepped last spring and have simply sat on the stock for the last 6 months. Quote:
And I'm still of the view that it would be foolish for Hasbro to impose any sort of street date for this push considering most of the product has already been released and I'm doubtful retailers are going to give a crap right after Christmas.

Ah this gives me time to save up, I'll be transferring to another company at the end of the year so have to be frugal at the moment...hopefully the "ultimates" would be release past March.
EDIT: The colors of some of the accessories (such as the yellow rifles and blue harness) are still subject to change, right? Mouse's rifle and Snake Eye's harness gear could sport some darker colors me thinks.

I have been pretty let down by the Retaliation stuff I got so far. So the poor articulation is going to continue with these new waves??

The only things I'm interested from the Retaliation line is Night Cruiser troop carrier w/ missile launcher on top and few ninja's and Night Vipers and Crimson Guards! Unless Hasbro has some last min changes to this line that will make it interesting? They have had 9 months to REALLY think about it. Hint hint Hasbro

Doesn't mean Hasbro doesn't have stuff for the fall push, but we won't know anything about that until at least Toy Fair. 9 months doesn't mean squat in toy production (and it is more like 6 due to communication and shipping times). Quote:
Everything I've seen indicates a majority of Retaliation figures (especially the ones people are apt to give a shit about) are going to be as articulated as what you've seen in PoC. Even the ninjas, in wave 1, had full articulation ranges. You'r still screwed on drivers, though. Don't bet on it.

I hope the Eel figure that comes with the night landing is going to have articulation.

http://www.hisstank.com/gi-joe-news/...1341079302.jpg As I've said before, the Eel/Landing craft pack to me indicates Hasbro is going to revamp the Alpha class as something more in line with the Target deluxe figures from RoC. Wouldn't surprise me if the cycles were done as quickie movie tie ins to get retailers into carrying the pricepoint to begin with.

I thought articulation on the 3-packs were pretty darn good, the regular figures not so much (Roadblock) is the one exception to the three pack, no anlke articulation? c'mon it was bad enough the single card had only 1 hand!
