| bram1216: I didn't know if they had been found at retail yet or not.I searched for any sightings,and didn't find anything.I only picked up the SE/Zartan set.I can post pics if anyone is interested. SNAKE EYES: You might be the first. What was the price? mister-x: they are not going to be target exclusives are they? Snow cat: I also found then at TRU in ocala today and they were 6.69 and i picked up SE/Zartan too. I can also post a pics if you like. Syn3sthesia: Saw those yesterday...totally passing on that.

Nice Find.
And yeah, if you could post pics, that'd be cool. Lt. Faceless: I just want Firefly.It would be cool if Beachhead was coming too. The Commander: Pics always welcomed, it'll probably get you a front page ;) rob0213: I wonder how hard (or not) these will be to find. I am curious about them. That Destro looks kind of cool. kennywr22: Yea my target got them in today. They are on a revision for 10/12/08 so you should see them in all targets soon. I plan on buying them all. Too cool not to get them. rob0213: I don't know..........
I might pass on these with all of the new stuff coming out. SNAKE EYES: Quote:

Which means at 7 bucks I will probably buy them. Thanks a lot, Hasbro!! darthdoug: You know the rule.... They don't exist without Pics!!! AlternateUniverse Steeler: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
why when i have no money =( Steel Brigade: I love wave 2... I want to pass on these but I know when I see them I will want them. LOL!!
I'll definately get Scarlett ... & BBQ... & SS... I'm in trouble. rob0213: I have the same problem. I really want to not want them. We'll see how strong I can be, lol. Agent-GHQ: To me, they are disturbingly disgusting! Yuck!! Captain Carstein: I don't know if I can resist these little guys. I can see it now...just a few to sit by my computer, then before I know it, bam!... I got little Joes, Cobras, Spider Man, Dr. Doom, Indiana Jones, Star Wars dudes all over the place!
I don't know what it is. When I first saw the SW Galatic Heroes I thought "meh" little kids stuff, but now everytime I see the Joes I get closer and closer to wanting to get them. rob0213: Like little plastic Gremlins. I have the same fear, as I have "collectoritis". docfairday: I will be getting these for my son. Hicks_Royel: I won't be collecting the combat heroes, but when I saw the Marvel Deadpool, I couldn't help but think of Wittle Wade... so I had to pick it up.
Edit: You know, a lesser man would make a joke about the quote Collectoritis.

Yeah, it's late. lol.
Carfull, it's very catchy!!!! Hicks_Royel: Really? I just thought it was hard to find in some cases.
The combat heroes [and other Hasbro hero lots] probably do hold some appeal to their intended age groups. And obviously they're selling considering how many of these things are being produced. rob0213: Quote:

Some cant find things and some can. The BHdestro is up for trade/sale.
 cmderinchief: My daughter digs the SDCC set I got her. She will love these. I don't care if they are ugly or not...if she like's them, I'll buy them. mister-x: im planning on getting a set of these for my nephew for christmas, hes to small for the figures, so i think i can spark an intrest in him with these... revenge on my brother! mwhahahaa briking: These are all I'm getting any more and they're for my son. The price hike on the single figures is what did me in.
What area's have people found them? I'm in NC. Thanks. Steel Brigade: I saw all of Wave 1 Combat Heroes today @ my new Target. I passed on them for now... HissCommander: why do they keep making timber look like a choad? HudsonValleyHunter: I had all of wave 1 in my hands then i put them back... ughh I shoulda just bought um cause the next wave looks cool with baroness and destro art2614: Saw them 2 days ago at Target but passed on them. Not going to get these. Syn3sthesia: Saw those last week and will pass on them. Outsider: Picked up all 4 sets today! SITHLOU33: They're in San Antonio also at a target that just opened up but I didn't pick them up. Captain Carstein: Seeing what's in wave 2 makes me want to get these guys a little more. Resisting so far...  Barefoot Jedi: Our TRU had them the other day. Not my thing so I didn't really study them, but they were there. The Conflict: Quote:

How they became adult collectables, I have no idea
So no there should be no small parts or anything removable at all Snow cat: Quote:
