No dates, no details, just what was in the system, but I have my theories.
Ok, for the doubters out there, I work for Wal-Mart, and the list is legit. I did not put down stuff that had already been confirmed, like the Falcon packs, and the EELs, and Mutt & junkyard, and the UPCs cause I did not think they mattered. The price points were for single figs and two pack prices. As I read the posts I think, some of the lists might be for the new Combat Cutie figures like Snake Eyes and Timber coming from the con. Hard to tell.
And for the doubters, your call, I will buy what I want, leave the others on the pegs, and enjoy my collection.

mercer: wow, thats good news. thanks 4 the info Irid70: I wonder what "Omega Force" is...anyone? xFlintx: ARGH NO DUSTY!!!! But interesting none the less. Cobra-La: Could Omega Force be the first of the movie figures? Shin Densetsu: I wonder what Omega Force is too. If it means armor, cool! Could be the Robot Rebellion armors with ability to attach to the anniversary figures. That would be neat. art2614: Glad the line is still going strong, but the list just sounds like a bunch of repaints to me. Recondo: weren't some of those in an older fake lists? (i.e. Snake Eyes and hard master, scrap iron and wild bill, beach head and mainframe)
and how come no upc numbers?
Rock n Roll and Dee Jay? come on ? really? .... Dee Jay...? Tracker: interesting
Multi Packs:
Rock & Roll & Dee
who's Dee CaptainDinobot: I thought that there was only 39-41 single figures for 2008. Are these the beginning of 2009 or are they for the 4th quater? teemu8: all crap, but blowtorch,scrap iron,mainframe, and the dreadknocks.....wheres quick kick,dusty,dr mindbender,alpine,recondo,zandar,zarana? whats the point!! if you cant make what people want, why bother! Shin Densetsu: Quote: |
Could Omega Force be the first of the movie figures?
| Thing is, it would be too early for preview figures even if it were for the end of the year. DaViper: wow some of those are hard to decipher. OMEGA force? maybe action force? Lo-Wan Bing: Quote:

Another wave where 1 or 2 figures is all Hasbro is making money off of me from. They have really made not trying to be a completist easy for me, my therapist will be pleased at my progress... nervous: Quote:

who's Dee |
My thoughts on "Dee" , it may be referring to "Deep Six" Recondo: didn't the older list include Rock n Roll and Hard Ball ?
So they just repaced it with Dee Jay?
Is there something new and special about another Buzzer?
If Tripwire is all but offically announced in a comic pack why is he listed here again w/Deser(t) so soon after his initial release (towards the end of this year)?
It just seems like a very suspect list
I don't even care what Omega Force is, you could tack anything on Force to make a new sounding Gi Joe subgroup Tracker: Quote:
Originally Posted by nervous My thoughts on "Dee" , it may be referring to "Deep Six" | hope so facehammer: Seems like Deep Six to me... Shin Densetsu: I wonder if Storm Shadow w/GE means Storm Shadow with gear...a single pack version of the one in the recent comic packs. vega-1: Quote:
Originally Posted by DaViper wow some of those are hard to decipher. OMEGA force? maybe action force? | Could be:? Or it could be Captain Dinobot  Recondo: Isn't Deep Six supposed to be coming with the SHARC
Single Serpent could be an accurate Serpentor from the ASA Set Amberbratt: Quote:
Originally Posted by facehammer Seems like Deep Six to me... | Negative Man...
its most likeley "Dee-Jay"
Remember BATTLE FORCE 2000? Anyone??
I have seen those pics On yo Joe.com
After viewing those pics and Seeing the figures from 1993- Called Batte Corps I think it is Safe To say that OMEGA FORCE Is an ACRONYM
which is the Following
O.M.E.G.A F.O.R.C.E
Oh My Gawd Extremley Garish Action Figures On Retail Checklists Everywhere.
Here is the followinf Definition of Garish..
1. Marked by strident color or excessive ornamentation; gaudy.
2. Loud and flashy: garish makeup. See synonyms at gaudy1.
2. Glaring; dazzling: “Hide me from Day's garish eye” (John Milton).
[Origin unknown.]
Gaudy.... YUP............ they are going to accessorize the shit out of these things like they did to the old sw figures... make them "deluxe" with some kinda detachable backpack or something horirble like the old kenner batman days woo hoo (NOT)
Don't worry I sm not bitching... I am just point out a thought
Hopefully I am wrong... (Hopefully!!!) Counterpoint: Quote:

:-) A.V.A.C.: dee jay was a peg-warmer when he came out originally. which is appropriate, with the release of another buzzer, they'll both be hanging there forever. please, not another buzzer, for the love of all that is holy! ogre_h: So is this the Red-Shirt Buzzer we saw from the cards?
Why no love for Zap & Short Fuse?
Does OMEGA Duke finally fix the arms & diaper crotch issue? Snake Eyes-Joe Ninja: Firefly and SS with GE sounds like repacks of the comic, but Blowtorch and a couple of others sound cool!
Count me in for a coupl eof figures, at the very least. hamilcar: i'm hoping "Omega" is code for "Final". as in, this is the final Duke and CC we see get made in this line. a man can dream... a man can dream. MrClean: Just for fun

Cobra Commander Omega Force
Cobra TROOPER Omega Force
Storm Shadow w/ GEAR

Cobra Trooper w/ REMOVEABLE PANTS

Single Serpent LOOKING FOR LOVE

Omega does indeed mean final/last. . .
Actually, I think Mr. Clean is pretty much right. RockinHard: Many repaints . . . thanks Hasbro. Just what we all wanted. ultramax: where's the snake eyes repaint????? another buzzer????? omega force??? WTFFFFFF????? mercer: Quote:

Now i'm a huge supporter of this line as i've stated before. I'm a army builder including the gimpy handed viper. Reading this list just makes me very pissed off for the first time since i've been collecting this line. I was ok with wave 4 single packed redo's from the box sets no problem. I was still ok with wave 8 which is very much repaints even that uninspired major bludd. I even bought the toys r us repaints( box sets) cool for exclusives but this list of single packs is absolutely a slap in the face. This line is year old and it is easily making hasbro money and is being sold out everywere. To get repaints in the first 4 or so waves is one thing but this is going to far. We are entering wave's 10, 11 and more with no sign of classics like Dusty, tunnel rat, alpine, and so many more that i can't even think of right now since i'm so mad at this listing. I would be happy if i saw brand new figures never seen before but more friggin repaints!! This is enough to make me sell this line and that is pretty drastic. I will now step away from my computer and relax. Maybe these are bonus figures thrown in for the end of the year or something. I hope this doesn't mean this line won't get past the repaint stage. That is all for now. MrClean: Quote:

do you honestly only buy and enjoy what you have simply for what else will come? personally, I buy what I do because I like them, without any condition of what else will ever get made. I suppose I am the strange one, huh? Shin Densetsu: No I don't think these figures are the rest for the year, and no I don't think it will end. Look at the Indiana Jones line...movie figures, and the previous trilogy figures all part of the same line, same packaging, just different labels, I think it will be like that. Indiana Jones followed the Star Wars way with regards to packaging, and Gijoe did the same with the comic packs, I see no reason why gijoe will not do the same with future figures and movie figures. ladyhump: Awesome. More Buzzer action. At least Ripper and Torch got single versions. Shin Densetsu: Quote: |

lately with the rumored lists, i have been only interested in one or two figs...Hasbro is gonna start to see a decline in sales if you ask me, as i have been reading here and there lately that a lot of us are being rather selective...poor Hasbro, if only they would listen to the people buying these things and make what we want, not what they want to try and force on us... teemu8: Quote:

I have a feeling we will find out at joe con... redstripe: if they don't sell hasbro will learn their lesson. the repainted peg warmers will eventually hit the discount bins... to be reincarnated as an innovative cross branded customs.
then everyone wins. teemu8: Quote:

Hasbro said quick kick is coming?? that was long ago! where is he??? all were getting are characters (repaints) nobody cares about!
no more cobra this, cobra that..(like cobra bazooka soldier) he never existed in the 80's line.....why make a line based off of a retro line made back when we were kids and then ruin it with nonsense!! I think many of us shouted out what we want to see and hasblow ignores it with this shit ass assortment! woopie! blowtorch is the only one I want that hasnt been made Captain Hydra: Well, I've only bought the ones I wanted from the start, so this is nothing new for me. 90% crap, but i can't wait for Scrap Iron. I'll also get the other random Cobra troops if they are cool. They should have used the drednock parts to make Monkeywrench instead of the same three. I could care less if they come in different color shirts, I won't buy them again. Overall another disapointing list, but they do seem to alternate between repaint sets and new ones, so I'll just wait for the next set of new figures, rather than bitch about this list. arashikage storm: Quote:
