Ozzie made a really good ME Plague team.

That SE is really good for an ME Action Force SAS squad too.

I used it for my Final 12 Black Spyder Adventure Team figure.

Damn. That is a lot of ninja. I though I had it bad. I even started selling some red ninja. 5 is enough! How’d you get so many hats? I don’t see the red and black ninja. Where do they fit in your world? Also any advise of getting the red ninja to hold their swords better?

UGH! It could also be your Walmart just sucks!
Mine is the same. For a long time they had no Star Wars stuff. That's right NONE! This was before the pandemic even!
They absolutely lied when they claimed they would fill the void when TRU folded.

I use them for my "black ops display." Put Joe heads on the bodies and have them squaring off against the black DG troopers

Thanks, my man!

Although technically the same figure, I used a few DG Shipwreck torsos, if I recall correctly—only because that SE figure was harder to come by. But your point is well taken: these SE figures are still good for custom cannibalization, The Plague being front and center!

Instant NF, yep. Many people redid their OG13 using those sweater torso/arms, too, but I suppose the DG Shipwreck v2s would be best if you wanted to avoid painting...

I see your point, and I will politely disagree. My hang ups are army building and customizing. I want 6 SS for a custom squad. I can't use any of my 50th SS for this project, as they are my Red Scorpion Ninja Clan:



I'm trying to make the best of a disappointing situation. I'm glad we have 4" figures back on the pegs, but I'm disappointed by the lack of new sculpting, builds and deco. If Hasbro is not going to give me new items, then I'll have to do it myself.

The display comes with 10 SS, so there will be figures left if I come across a fresh display.

I'm sorry my SE joke offended you. I didn't think anyone would get worked up over it. At least it was a better re-pack than what I found yesterday (sorry, but my phone camera is broken):

Nice ninja set... Her what's that serpent doing in that Transformers Hound box?

How in the world can an employee be that damn stupid to take that back?

Wow!
