Looks like the Hunt for Cobra Commander is going to go like when you play hide and seek with the unpopular kid at school and don't bother looking for him.

Only Sightline for me. The only new character in years. The rest are all recently released or suck in many ways. Sightline is a lame repaint too but a decent mold.

Pretty harsh. The average voter's picking over 5 from this list.
Incidentally, the Joe brand manager Mark Weber said he came on board after other people already designed this year's stuff. So it remains to be seen what his idea of a good wave is. |

I do appreciate: Alpine coming back (already have him but many missed him and at least you get two troop builders) Green Blowtorch (never liked Blowtorch that much but at least he's not a straight repack like last year) Crimson Shadow Guard: great choice but should have packed with a SB in my opinion with 3 or 4 to a case. maybe next year that can be the straight repack set for 51st anniversary. Python CROC (cool kind of, but won't replace the one I already have) Gung-Ho is a friggin grand-slam. Last year's Leatherneck was a triple brought down to double with a Hawk Repack and a Destro, who although good I have enough Destros. meh: SS and Spirit. I like Spirit, but I have one and plenty of Storm SHadows. besides my SS is a CObra. 2 packing him in each case instead of GH and CSG is dumb. All the vehicles, don't love any of them. Lame: Dorothy slippers CC.

Yeah, WTF was this idea all about? I like the SW, but he isn't a hugely needed character, the ROC and DG versions were not conceptually much different-SW in his business clothes instead of his old fashioned bell bottoms and dog dish. And that CC? Unlike most figures, the more I see him, the less I like him. Usually, when I am meh about a figure, I find something I like about him as I look at him more. Not this guy.

Am I the only guy that likes the Sneak Attack set? Yeah, they are bluish, but at night, with no light, your eyes do not see in color properly. That is meant to be what they look like in the desert at night-stars give you enough to see, but not in color. And that Firefly is the mold of the 2 pack, which is the best Firefly ever. Don't even try arguing that.
I ordered vanishing act set, I am sort of wondering why now. I like torpedo the character, but not so much the diver action figures. They all look the same, slight color changes. Zartan is a meh character for me. Really, it is all about Ht and Run, and even he isn't a top tier character for me. Rock rampage is a hit all around. I don't have the 25th Alpine or Rock Viper and I only have the 3 pack shock trooper. I have both the BBTS and POC billy spirits, don't really need a third, and I have what feels like hundreds of Storm Shadows. The green blowtorch is cool, probably would have preferred his billet was filled with a character we don't have. I like the croc master torso for customs. Big arms, but not freakishly huge. |
