Saw the Toys r US 5 packs today, they are so laughable!!! As much as I am a completist, I will simply not buy this crud. SE looks terrible, and the Cobra soilders are not worth 25 dollars for a bunch of repaints...I'm proud of myself today for putting them back on the shelf, I just could not see spending 50 dollars on repaints when I wont even spend 30 on the first Cobra box set to get the Baroness......
I know some guys love these box sets, but C'mon Hasbro you can do better than this!!! |

I also wondered if 25 was justifiable to pay for the same figs, same weapons. I decided to put them back as well.
Went back 2 days ago and they were still there. |

15 is prolly the most i would pay for the sets. Im really unimpressed with the whole deal. I saw some images of the Firefly vs greenshirts and so far i think that has to be the worst.

I haven't seen them, nor am I looking for them. I would have preferred the troopers to be all blue and I already got my fill of red ninjas. Now that Joe 3 pack is another story (At least for me)

I will buy them all, and probably army build the night watch set. That being said probably the only drawback to the 25th style line is the small number of characters, including the fact the cobra troopers are essentially just different variations of blue shirts and then the cg's, I know viper and tele viper are coming but i shure could use some other types of vipers PLEASE HASBRO!

I haven't seen them yet, but the only one (of the 2 so far) that I was considering getting was the night watch set.
