Haven't had a chance to open them yet and working on loading pictures in this post Added more pics, they are on post #50 L.T. SEAL: Great stuff man been dying to get the arctic pack have fun with them. cant wait to u post the pics DOC: Would love to see that Snow Serpent Commander. Only reason I got 2 of the Arctic packs. How is The Major looking? Falcon07: Did you get those at an Online Retailer? Or Ebay?
Just trying to see if mine are gonna hit anytime soon. blzjoe: yeah whered u get em? bbts still shows em as next month CobraCoffee: Again... Will Hasbro.com have these or do I have to get them from BBTs and the like? MeGrimlock79: I got them off of ebay and actually got them at cost and that included the shipping. I will be opening them tonight and will take some pics then and post them tomorrow. gilborrego: What is the cost for each pack? I see some on ebay right now for $35 not including shipping. MeGrimlock79: Check BBTS and see but i'm pretty sure it was $35 per set on these blzjoe: $59.99 + SH at bbts for both together Mr. X: They look great. Can't wait for my case of 10 to arrive! Agent-GHQ: I want to play with those! Outsider: Quote:

They've gone up $2. COBRAVAMPIRE: hey jeremy could you let me get a set of 2 on the hook-up?, i see you just got an absolutely fabulous deal! Good job, please pm me with details if you would i'd really like to get a set for a good price! thanks The Conflict: does anyone know if hts will be selling these sets? Snow cat: I realy like the artic set. Are these sets online exclusives or theses going to be found at wal-mart? Mr. X: Quote:

its got three "cold weather" specific figures while another is re-dressed for the cold...and three really tough bitches that just handle that polar weather like champs.
the desert set has figures repainted in arid earth tones....not a single desert specific character. sorry, tan and brown paint doesnt cut it for me.
but i do find it ridiculous how even scrap iron's missiles are painted for arctic launch. Captain Carstein: Online only you say? Damn, I'll have to finally break down and buy some Joes online. I have found everything I want and need at retail so far, but I definitely want these two sets.
They look sweet, thanks for sharing the pics. Beach_Head: If anyone will be troop building these, I'd really appreciate it if you could hook me up with a Major Bludd and a Snow Serpent Officer... code_red_shockwave: As many would see it, there are plenty of cool troop builders but I also see plenty of nice custom fodder. For example, you could swap heads between the Desert COBRA Trooper w/Viper body and the Viper head w/BBQ body to make a long-sleeved Sonic Fighters Viper without the gold trim and another individual. I truly cannot wait to get these as I have ordered mine from Hisstank member SidDarth. Derek2783: Quote:

I can't wait to get this and complete my Snow Serpent team. I just wish the the Desert team was more than re-paint lameness.
What are the chances that they'll be a Joe Extreme Environment team in the works as well? I realize that you can't make a troop builder out of it, but a cool SEAL attack or Mountain Climbing type team would work really well. jcast: Quote:

I truly cannot wait to get these as I have ordered mine from Hisstank member SidDarth. | I'm thinking Swap the head on BBQ Viper and the Cobra Trooper/viper. Then give the BBQ Trooper the gas mask and give the padded Toxo Trooper the mine equipment. nighthawk: What head is underneath the Trooper with the Flash mold? Do these guys have hair? Possible to take a pic of them without their helmets?
Also, possible to see Scrap Iron without his goggles? Lastly, is Mjr Bludd headsculpt unchanged? Roadblock Recall: i'd like to see pictures of the helmets removed as well MeGrimlock79: Quote:

Deckard: i said it before and i will say it again...exclusives, especially online exclusives, suck. That being said the figures do look cool especially bludd. BILL: Hi shin , do you or anyone know why they cut the desert croc master out of the desert set. I liked that version (repaint) of him :( ???? jack138: I'd like to see a Joe jungle ops set, with the cast from the comics where they had to go in and recsue Dr. Burkhart a second time...
And a Dr. Burkhart figure would be cool...she's milfishly tasty...
And the Soft Master?
Blind Master?
Billy?
Bongo the Balloon Bear?
How about a set of Chaplain's assistants?
-just my 138 cents... mech-grunt: Man I am kicking myself in the ass for not ordering them. The only reason I did not order, because I know I would be in the middle of a cross country move. O well the look great I will just have to try my luck when my move is complete and I settle in TX. VIPER 48: I have both pre ordered. I can't wait to get these myself... GI Kiwi: i ordered the case of 10 too...does one of the arctic vipers have that stupid open hand like roadblock? grrr Copper21: Please Mr. Postman! Hurry!!! COBRAVAMPIRE: do they come with file cards! Valo487: Has anyone who ordered these from Master Collector heard anything? I preordered these a while ago and haven't heard anything. I want them really bad!! ParatrooperCarbine: Awesome. Can't wait for mine to arrive. I'm very glad these were an exclusive-would probably have cost more in stores. MAJOR WOLF: Great news! I hope I can get a set. Nirvana: BBTS is suggesting they arrive Oct. 3rd. I'm still debating to go from 4 (2 each) to 8 (4 each). Synthoid69: I want both these sets. They look amazing. Elite Force Cobra: those are sweet man nice score!!! can't wait to get them for myself Pimp Daddy Darklon: Quote:

Oh yeah and without further ado, here's some head shots and more pics. Sorry about the pics but i don't have a good place to take pictures, a good eye for pictures or even a real good camera   | All times are GMT -4. The time now is 07:45 AM. | |
