There must be a God because a miracle has happened!! My wave 1 order from BBTS has finally arrived!!!
Belatedly I get to experience these figures. Wow I am not disappointed at all. They are really great. Fantastic detail and awesome quality. Didn't have to heat up or anything there was no problem with any of the figures. Opened Karak first and love him. His nasty axe, his aggressive face and that helmet is so cool. I thought right, this is my favourite. Then I opened bone collector and that became my favourite. But then I opened the Swarm trooper and added the swarm pack accessories which is a must. Blown away. Fantastic figure. Definitely need a few more. Then of course came Steel Brigade - just love it. The recreation of a new concept figure from our childhood is blowing me away. Need more and the female trooper will look great. Already have Condor and Sarge so the collection just looks so great together. I am so happy with it and the weapons packs have upgraded my classified figures too. |

The Night Ops look great. Too bad they are exclusive so I can't get from my Canadian source.

Not the op, but the figures are good. The joints are fine but not as a smooth as classified. The shoulder does split abit but it's not noticeable. The guns are still brittle so you have to be careful posing them

Just a quick question since Google has not been fruitful so far on this search. For customizing Valaverse figures, are these just boil & pop like Marvel Legends? I'm a little bit leery of just yanking them apart without checking given that I finally got my wave 1 figures from BBTS.

Series 2 doesn't suffer from the same rigidity/fragility issues as Series 1, so the hands are easy to swap out. But just as a rule of thumb, I'd still boil 'n dip them before popping them apart.

They absolutely need to be boil 'n dipped before popping them apart. With Series 1, I'd also do the hands before swapping them out as the stems might crack while twisting (even Action Force shill, and superfan, Tony from Analog Toys, broke the peg on a Steel Brigade hand shortly after removing it from the box for review). After they're "soft," it's easy to pop them apart and go nuts customizing. But if they start to cool, drop them in for another quick soak before continuing.
