Its just more repaints.
Thats all this line is turning out to be, a churning of endless repaints instead of new characters. |

B/c hasbro is just sticking us in the arse one more time with re-paints, but this time charging even MORE for them. :(
I am SOOO glad the movie is coming out so we get a break on our wallets for a while and a break from re-paints. :( I love Joes and the 25ths, but I am just about over it at this point. :( .

I think people would be complaining a lot less if we weren't already getting the new 5-packs. The things people would be most excited about really in the HOH would be Flint and that Viper. But those are both basically the same as the 5-pack versions we've already seen. Then there's the HOH BAT that has the same stuff the we are getting in the wave 14 BAT.
A lot more excitement and thanks to Hasbro would be happening right now if we weren't already getting most of these incarnations. wtf is up with commando Snake Eyes??? I see absolutely NO changes in that one. |

My only advice on this subject is this: Git em if you want them. I have a feeling they will not be around that long. Special packaging sold me and they will look nice in the collection. Buy what you like fellas, pass on the rest.

The biggest gripe is that, for the most part, we've already seen these figures already.
Flint, Snake-Eyes w/ Timber, Zartan and the Viper have all been released in the new 5-packs. What's so special about the remaining figures? Beachhead, Storm Shadow, B.A.T. just has extra accessories. And not new accessories, just all the accessories that came in various versions. CG is the same as the one that came w/ the comic pack, just repainted and with more accessories. The all black Snake-Eyes, don't see what's so different from the single carded. Firefly is the only one that's remarkably different. People were expecting something special for these figures, besides just packaging. You're paying the extra money for nothing but special packaging. It's just kind of a let down. |

lots of those figures seem like a waste now, but at the time we all really wanted those comic pack figures. |
