Cobra Commander doesn’t belong in the FSS period. I’m looking at my wall of carded 25th Joe’s right now and this will be the 4th Jinx released as a 25th style carded figure. That’s twice as many as Scarlett, more than Duke, and tied with Snake Eyes. And while I like these variants of Dusty, Hawk, and Stalker I would much rather have characters we’ve yet to receive their version 1 of in the ME line. Budo at the very least is likely going to finally get his main look but still that is yet another character getting a second ME release instead of a character getting their first ME release.

1000%!
Especially when there are '80s years ARAH figures completely missing from ME still! That's a travesty!

Quote:

By my count we only were missing 10 ARAH named Cobras (7 if you don’t want to count the 3 Lunartix Aliens). This FSS is only crossing 1 off that list with Crystal Ball.

I would consider anything pre-'90 as priority, so that includes Golobulus and there are some fundamental non-named '80s era Cobras that are missing entirely from ME as well, like Royal Guard, ToxoViper, and HydroViper.

Quote:

By my count there were only 20 ARAH 80s Joes (19 if you don’t count Fridge) and 22 90s Joes we’ve yet to receive any version of. This FSS is only crossing 1 off of either of those lists with Skidmark. Where is Fast Draw or Blizzard or Hardball from the 80s or Gridiron or Stretcher or Col Courage from the 90s?

Preach!

We don’t know for certain the club will end December 2018 so if it doesn’t I’ll change my tune but if it does end FSS 7 and 8 should have been a means to cross off about half of those missing characters off those lists

Given how few missing figures we're getting in FSS7, they'll need to continue at least through 2020 in order for a complete '80s set ME collection to ever happen. =\

Cool, I didn’t know that, thanks for pointing that out! I checked online and it looks like they have the same color scheme, so I guess there won’t be any surprises on his colors.

I'm actually happy with this line-up. There are 8 keepers for me. 2:1 ratio isn't too bad.

Dusty looks pretty good in my eyes

Signed up, $477.30 including insurance. At least the price did not increase from FSS 6, but it does hurt dishing a lot of money for probably mostly repaints.

Does that include shipping or is that extra every month?
