Just becuase they want to advertise thier crap on TV and Warn Toddlers about small parts your killing me! ;) camper: Why must SE always be wearing a purse?! I thought at first it was a recon pack or stolen enemy secret plans -- cos that's how you transport secret plans in the modern day. By satchel. As in past times like the Civil War. Watch out, SE! Major John S. "Grey Ghost" Mosby is gonna getcha, and your secret plans too!
Or maybe SE is a little bit emo, always wearing black or grey and a man bag. onefastbird95: Where is the Python officer carded pic? MegaPrime33: Nope, not a fan of that baronness. Though Major Bludd is awesome, as is Viper. The Fridge: The Tiger Force Logo is cool, and I am glad Major Bludd gets the 25th logo. It also looks like there will be Cobra Vipers w/25th Logo and then Vipers with the corny "As Seen on T.V." logo. I agree that the Cartoon logo is bad, but maybe it means we will see a rerelease of the series soon. Amberbratt: Quote:

hahaha artiepants: I'm actually really stoked with this wave. TF Flint makes me happy.
Funny that the Baroness are has her old sculpted hair. MAJOR WOLF: Quote:

Funny that the Baroness are has her old sculpted hair. | I wonder how many people are gonna swap the gloves with the first flint?? Roadblock Recall: Flint's card reads "Tiger Force Leader"
I wonder if that means no Tiger Force Duke. RickJoe75: Quote:

RedEyes: I'm sure this has been asked before. But does anybody esle think Major Bludd would look better on Zartans current body. The colors seem to match better with the original Bludd. The whole chest piece painted black looks pretty lame, IMO. None the less, I'll probably be buying all of these! Can't wait! DESTRO: Here are the UPC's

Overall, just waiting for bbts to ship or to find them in retail first... DarthBrett: Looks like Hasbro forgot to paint the Python Patrol figure's knee pads green and yellow. MAJOR WOLF: Quote:

Originally Posted by FadetoBlack2880 Baroness looks like Howard Stern with green glasses. I hate Howard. | Ohhhhhhh!!!! Don't get me started on How much I really Hate that Guy! Chuckles #1 Fan: What is wrong with the Howard Stern show? It is funny and helps pass the time during a gridlocked morning commute. I didnt realize he warranted hatred for trying to entertain people. CobraCommando: His jokes are pretty mean spirited. I think he warrants a little bit of hatred. spacemonkeymafia: Way off subject here but how do you start a new post???? Ive tried for like 30 mins..... DarthBrett: He's somewhat funny but way too negative most of the time. I can only listen to him for a few days before I just get tired of hearing him moan and bitch about everything. Elite Force Cobra: where is roadblock in this set? Jinx723: All I can say is "GIMME, GIMME, GIMMIE, GIMMIE, GIMMIE"
As for Major Bludd, I'm still switching his legs with Red Star, gotta make him lokk gooder. DarthBrett: My idea to "upgrade" Bludd
Replace his left arm with the CG's arm. Replace his chest and torso with a Cobra's. Replace his legs with Red Star. And somebody else had the idea of using the DS Gunner's chest armor from Star Wars. I already glossed up my extra DS Gunner chest armor. I'm waiting to repaint all of the parts until Red Star is out. Shin Densetsu: Baroness has the fixed crotch. I don't like the green glasses. Major Bludd...eh...yea..damn that bionic immobile elbow! Snake Eyes has a painted Arashikage symbol on his sword. Drill: Horary for fixed Crotch Baroness! As I do not have the BP Baroness (Why the hell wasnt she rereleased?) this will be a fine substitute. All I will do is add red to her lips.
Bludd looks off in the face for some reason.
I'm getting Baroness easily, Bludd probably, and Flint only if I cant find one. VIPER 48: Quote:

Let's say you want to talk about 25th figures, you would click on that heading and then look right above the first thread in the listing. There should be a red button that says start new thread or something like that... DarthBrett: Here's my half-ass attempt at putting my custom Major Bludd together using my really rough Photoshop skills. Obviously the final figure will look and feel a lot better than this quick pic I made. Old School Soldier: Quote:

Im thinking the same thing...except im using the flash chest on the hiss tank driver...its exact to the original blood even down to the collar and armor straps. DarthBrett: I was on the fence about using the HISS Driver, but I don't like the belt (Bludd didn't have a belt). Snow Job: Quote:

(Sorry if you're just being facetious, I'm tired & it's hard to tell...) spazzy: when the hell are we going to see the original baroness carded? Is there a reason she was skipped? I hope it wasn't to put out the cartoon version instead...that'd piss me off. mikeTime: [quote=artiepants;101374]I'm actually really stoked with this wave. TF Flint makes me happy.
You kidding me? The Popeye arms with the crappy excuse for a rolled up sleeve. It looks ridiculous. WTF Hasbro you cheap SOB's. Quote:

now that you mention it, that does look pretty bad. I'm looking at his right arm...forearm is MUCH bigger than his upper arm. kinda makes him look like a wuss with no biceps/triceps. mikeTime: [quote=Roadblock Recall;102708] Quote:

I will slap it out of their hand and scold them. | All times are GMT -4. The time now is 05:46 AM. | |
