dawg99:
    sweet list alley viper would be cool also 12 inch eels
VIPER 48:
    An Alley Viper would be so freaking awesome...If it is true, i can't wait to see it...
Kaisugi:
    alley viper... no orange.. no orange... no orange...



    thanks for the news!
Bandalero:
    I'm sure the three 12" fans here will be happy about that selection!
Fast_Draw:
    I hope it is the original Alley Viper...orange and blue FTW! And a single Scrap Iron? Nice...I'm guessing those won't be out until 2009 though.
FadetoBlack2880:
    alley viper was my favorite. i can see myself buying a few of those.

    Yeah, don't hear alot of talk about the big guys, but I know there are a few diehards, try to include everyone.
verzeihen:
    All i have to say is if omega looks just like the way that omega ( thunder thighs) duke did. Count me out. Redstar yes, alley viper okay. But please do not go any further in years hasbro!
paulpratt:
    I wonder what they could possibly do with a single pack red star? Maybe they will get rid of the duke arms? Dunno. Seems like a wasted opportunity. Wasn't there another October Guard member that was dressed similar to red star? Oh well. As long as we get some minor upgrades to the sculpt I'll buy any rehashes like that.

    I'm such a whore.
shlappyguy:
    Well... Alley Viper sounds cool. I don't need another Red Star, and I have to see what the Omega/Resolute figures look like. Both Scarlett and Baroness in on wwave, and then another Scarlett in a comic pack? Lotsa females. And I call that the Scarlet/ Cobra Commander Comic Pack will be the new king of pegwarmers, regardless os what sculpts are used.

    I'll be the first of many to say it... I wish they worked in some of the most wanted figures, like Ripcord, Recondo, Mindbender, Cover Girl, etc...

    And if you're going to single-card figures we've already gotten elsewhere (Tripwire, Red Star), may I suggest a Short Fuze? C'mon!

    Oh and Hasbro please, please please make it with the original helmet, shield and gun. Those blue and red camo versions you released a few years ago were just retarded knock off's of a once great figure. It's time to give us the real thing.
numb007:
    awesome alley viper is gonna be awesome
Cobra-Love:
    Alley Vipers! Gotta love the original V.1 with the orange / blue / black color scheme and the original shield! Now this is one fig that will be repainted over and over and will be a good thing!
botticus:
    Hopefully this Alley Viper, and not this one.
CdtWeasel:
    As long as the alley viper can see out of his helmet, I'll be happy.
shlappyguy:
    No, I gotta say I prefer the orange blue color scheme, even though I can't imagine what city they could possibly blend into with that camo scheme.
DOC:
    I'm down with the Alley Viper What ever the Color they decide to go with.
NeoDragonKnight:
    yay alley vipers, about time for my favorite figure, hopefully they will release the orange first, then a comic pack with repaint of urban greys like CP firefly. Now bring in the night vipers next!!!
dawg99:
    alley viper in orange not the other one i hope

    Now that would be a great idea, V1 followed by urban camo in a CP.

    Oh and ditto about the Night Vipers?
artiepants:
    well, most likely barring Hasbro doing an extra wave this is it for the 25th/modern era line.

    not a horrible way to go out with Alley Viper, but hugely disappointed with Scrap Iron and Red Star as single packs. I don't think many folks were hoping for a redo of Red Star, and i don't think we need 3 Scrap Irons over 6 or so months. i know some folks love the single cards, but i'd rather have new characters.

    dang, i'll (most likely) only get one figure from this wave unless the Omega Force ones end up being amazing upgrades (and fitting in well with the 25th) Theres certainly room for improvement on the original Baroness.
cmderinchief:
    Cool. Good to see so many happy folks about it too.
Deckard:
    I will be buying at least 20 alley vipers as those were my second fave cobra troops next to CG's. and i hope they are orange and blue version...not the yellow and black one.
Bandalero:
    I'm surprised no one has mentioned this yet so I'll be the first:

    I have a 12" Eel in my pants!
Deckard:
    Oh lordy! LOL
topnotch97:
    so...it's "wave 14"

    Alley Viper, eh.

    and NIght Creeper.
shlappyguy:
    Y'know, instead of single-carding, oh I don't know, Iron Grenadier, we get the third Scrap Iron in like three months? Boo, hiss.

    Any chance that might be Night Viper in the Comic Pack with SE?

    THis would be wave 15, I'm pretty sure, as wave 13 would be the wave with Blowtorch and single Torch, and wave 14 would be the one with the BAT, Falcon, and Omega Zap.
topnotch97:
    ah... so it's wave 02- 2009

    man, this is confusing. LOL!!!
spacemonkeymafia:
    Hasbro...hasbro...hasbro how I loath thee sometimes........Forget the Red Star Single pack....and give us some IGs on Single Cards....Why will you force us to Army build Destro when you could take 1,2 maybe 3 of those singles and Scrape them and Single Pack the IG............what about a CoverGirl? Just think on it...........
FadetoBlack2880:
    i figure the alley viper will be like the custom at the sdcc last year.

    i think w.15, unless what i'm calling 13 and 14 were part of the same wave (both were a little short the typical 6 figures, one was 5 and one 4 IIRC) edit: oops, Rockin'Hard beat me too it...
shlappyguy:
    I've been thinking that maybe the reason we're not seeing such obvious faves as Ripcord and Cover Girl is that Hasbro is going to do some movie 2 packs, wherein you would get a movie version of the character packed in with an "original" version. I know Toy Biz did some things like this for the X-Men movie. That's the only reason I can think of why Hasbro is dragging their feet on releasing those two characters, at least.

    heh, no wave 03-2009
Deckard:
    or they want us all to forget how they should be and accept how they want them to be. Personally i'll never accept wayans as ripcord...EVER.

    i could see some "evolutions" style 2/3 packs like that, that'd be cool. maybe an vintage style figure + a 25th style redo plus the movie figure?

    w00t, alley viper FTW!!!
Tunnel Rat:
    man alley vipers will be harder to find then the freakin bats, they are def a fan favorite

    doubt it, night creeper is more likely.

    I wash my hands of this figure. I really drew the line at the neon figs. That was the end for me as a kid. Rest assured that any I find will be left in the wild for you guys to enjoy ;)

    Red Star repack? Scrap Iron repack? Potentially bad Resolute/Omega repacks? <sniff> I am crying a single tear here for the lack of LOWLIGHT and COVERGIRL.... ok. maybe two tears.

    I think the opposite since there is a lot of guys saying that anything after 85 is not worth it.

    I'm not one of them and I can use a few Alley Vipers in my army.
CaptainDinobot:
    I would like to get an Alley Viper.
CrimsonGuard101:
    Alley Vipers rock, was one of the last Joes I had before I gave them up and gave it all over to my younger brother.

    However the color scheme is all wrong in either case. I like the original Orange, but comon you stand out like a fire hydrant! He needs camo like the guys do in the movie The Rock, that urban warfare camo is slick and I suck at painitng such small details lol.
B.A.T.:

    Me too! Alley Viper is probably my second favorite right behind the B.A.T. I'm looking forward to it!
sgt.bludhound:
    YAY A night creeper! and Alley Viper!! WOOT!
SnakeMoe:
    which version is the question?
