| Modern Era Wave 13 Released! G.I. Joe Resolute | | Posted on 11-25-2008 at 08:52 PM by Shin Densetsu |  | | Modern era wave 13 has been released! This wave has been found at a art2614's local comic shop, so it is only a matter of time before we see widespread release! We can now have the first looks at the Resolute Cobra Trooper, Resolute Duke, Repaint Firefly, and a closer look at Blowtorch, Dreadnok Torch, and Resolute Cobra Commander! | | Credit: art2614 of the Hiss Tank Forums! | Views: 16,375 |  |  Additional Images | | |
| art2614: Found wave 13 Today at my local comic shop and wanted to share my findings since this has been a mystery so far as to what they were going to look like. I will post more pics if you guys want.
 joss789: Awesome, thanks for the pics! Dawg99: wow sweet looking figures can't wait firefly looks cool arc30: Finally PICS!!! thanks, they look really good. Irid70: Awesome! Glad to see 'em; they look great. Irid70: Please give us some more pics! Especially of Blowtorch! Monkeywrench: The Firefly looks cool. Blowtorch looks awesome! I like the gun the resolute trooper comes with. Duke and CC are a pass. art2614: Here is Blowtorch ( sorry about the flash )
 Dawg99: can we see more pics of the resolute figures and firefly RockinHard: Please post more pics. Please take some of them loose if you open them. There is also an enormous glare on Torch. Monkeywrench: open them up and take more pics! Monkeywrench: who are the shadows on blowtorch? one looks like Falcon arc30: Who do those shadows on the back of the card look like? brock Samson: you're kidding right? firefly looks god awful! Good for a custom using someone elses head however. The shadows look like a definite roadblock and a possible stalker as the head looks like it has a beret. RockinHard: On the back of the card, the "shaded" figures are of Falcon and . . . .? Who's the other one? TheSabOteuR: Close up pics of each please. Great find as I'm suprised that 13 out already Deceptichage: Nice! Wave 13 is out and most of the retailers are struggling to get Wave 10 in. I hope we have tons of good stuff for the holiday rush. Monkeywrench: the other shadow might be roadblock? no fate: It looks like the Cobra Trooper uses the new head from the "Best of" DVD set. arc30: Firefly is just a crappy repaint. I was hoping for something completely new. RockinHard: Quote:

Blowtorch's helmet is a 2 piece helmet/mask combo! Awesome! Monkeywrench: maybe it's going to be a TF Roadblock Foolproof: I kinda like the Trooper... aaand... yeah, just the Trooper. Nice haul though, thanks for the pics! I wish the comic shops in Charlotte had Joes... Monkeywrench: I can't tell if Duke has a new head or not? arc30: How much did they cost you? nighthawk: Quote:

Hmm...Hasbro did say they were releasing a few more TF figures. GI Kiwi: hmm, i ordered 2 extra Firefly's in case he was cool...now i'm not so sure topnotch97: i think i'll only buy the Trooper in this wave.... i'm not sure about Duke and Blowtorch.
but hey... no more duke arms.
let the madness begin!  Monkeywrench: The troopers guns and backpack look very cool. Torch looks like a pass Irid70: Thanks for more pics. If you do open, I'd love some loose pics.
I LOVE that Cobra trooper. Finally, a cool new take on the classic. statesofeuphoria: That Torch is a waste of plastic. the rest are cool though. General Hawk: THANK YOU!
I've been waiting for good pics of these figures for a loooong time. I absolutely LOVE the Resolute Duke and COBRA Trooper. Those figures both kick all sorts of ass. Love the gear, love the weapons, love the overall look. Psyched to see that the Trooper uses the new head from the DVD set, too. Wow!
Firefly is a bit weird. Not sure where they're going with that one. We've already got a single card version, and I don't see much need for a blue-ish one in funky camouflage. It's not even really an homage to anything Real American Hero based.
Torch looks to be a bit more animated in style to match the Ripper. Blowtorch looks great, but it's Resolute that really steals the show for me.
Thanks a ton for the pics.

Torch is worse than the carded Ripper. Don't like the Trooper. Don't like the Firefly. Don't like the Cobra Commander. That Duke head doesn't look too bad. Blowtorch is awesome. Hey, Art: who are the shaded figs on back of the cards? One is Falcon, who is the other? Monkeywrench: Quote:

Which Snake Eyes was in the case? Was it just the Wave 5 Black suit SE? samjjones: Is that a new Duke headsculpt?
Not crazy about the Resolute figures so far. General Hawk: Quote:

The other one is definitely Roadblock, though who knows what the overall plan is for him. A better single card release, or a Tiger Force version as someone else mentioned? We'll see...
Justin GI Kiwi: crap...another Trooper trooper i must army build Monkeywrench: Quote:

The roadblock looks to be a TF one prolly. | All times are GMT -4. The time now is 02:46 AM. | | Cool Stuff |   | |
