Well, looking a bit better than some of the pics that have been around.
Still not liking: - Lack of chrome head for Destro and Viper - Leatherneck's vest looks to suffer from a bit of Techno Viper syndrome (won't close on left very well) - Beachhead's missing belt looks a bit silly - Lady Jaye's eyes are still pretty terrible, even when they're a bit better aligned - Heat Viper's purple stripes still look like they suffer from bad penetration into the folds of his uniform - Silly gold logos everywhere. Would much rather have red Cobra logos and black Joe ones... not sure why the characters themselves seem to be celebrating a 50th anniversary instead of their packaging... But, that said, these are looking a bit better... |

Destro is so killer but I wish the head was chrome.

Destro does look awesome but does anyone else think he looks like he has tiny kneecaps? Maybe it is just the picture but something just seems a bit off. The head sculpt and the weapon case is simply awesome though.

I actually saw the pics for Destro over at Joedios.com a few days ago.
Well, it looks like whoever took these pics is the person who won the first set on viperkingdom's e-Bay. The same derpy Lady Jaye and HEAT Vipers purple stripes. Looks like all the file cards (for the Joes) are the same ones from the ARAH versions. Though Hasbro didi change Lowlight's SN#. Wish the artwork for Hawk was different since we're not getting the '86 Hawk with bomber jacket. Overall, these look pretty darn good and it's just a matter of waiting for these to show up at TRU.

Destro's head is starting to look a bit on the HUGE side...they should scale it down a tad.
and holy wow! did they get their Valor Vs Venom artists back?? the artwork looks fantastic |

And they are in complete packaging; hopefully we are looking at actual product and not display pieces. Though now i am curious when the preorders are going up for wave 2. Wow. |

I noticed on one of the eBay listings that the file card for the HEAT Viper has the hose attachment on his left face plate. Just irritating...

Aw bummer, no Blowtorch...
They should have just rereleased a regular 30th Viper, instead of that ugly repaint. That is one boring figure. But wasn't that VK Leatherneck missing the camo on his pant?
