I, too, met with SidDarth today and picked up a case of wave 10. Thankfully, it had the variant Wraith so I won't have to waste my time or gas hunting it down.
I have to say that these figures are really nice! I especially like the Para-Viper; the gear for this one is just exceptional. I am somewhat perplexed, though, as to why what looks like an anti-material rifle would need a bayonet...? And while I love the MP5 he comes with, I surely do wish that he had a place to store it in his gear. Perhaps I just haven't been creative enough yet. The dive flippers are a very nice touch! I am also really enjoying the very different color scheme, although I know people will whine about it. Personally, I'm glad to have something other than just blue and black.
As a nitpick, Wraith's P90 is MUCH too large. It is beyond doubt the single most out-of-scale real-life gun I've ever seen any GI Joe figure carry. A real P90 is only about as long as from my fingertip to my elbow. Fortunately, I did purchase one from Marauder a while back just to have on hand, so it looks like a substitute will be in order.
Jeez, my desk is being overrun. I just recently got all of comic pack wave 5, then I got the Arctic set, and now I've got all of wave 10. Have I mentioned how much I enjoy shopping from SidDarth?
