I'm looking at the classified line and O-Rings coming, and that's causing me to rethink the Ultimates. I have waves 1-3 preordered, and that's nearly $700 after tax and shipping. Price isn't my main concern with S7 (but it is one), it's just that I'm starting to feel pretty sated with the volume of GI Joe stuff coming out in the pipeline and I'm not sure I'll have the physical space for everything.
At the least I'll keep a single BAT, but rethinking the whole line.

If I had to GUESS wave 4 of Ultimates, I would guess the two joes would be a green shirt troop builder and either Roadblock or Shipwreck and the two cobras would be Zartan and Major Bludd.
If I got to CHOOSE wave 4 of Ultimates, I would pick Low-light, Kwinn, Artic Snake-eyes, and General Hawk. If I had to choose a more traditional wave, I would pick Cover Girl, Clutch, Tomax and Xamot two-pack, and a Crimson Guard. But I can't imagine they'll go too much longer without releasing a more traditional Snake-Eyes.

It's funny you mention that. I love the way the Thundercats figures look, but I decided to only get the cats themselves. After so many delays, especially on Cheetara, I received the final cat, Bengali, a couple of weeks ago, which was actually two months EARLY! I saved on Pumyra because found an exclusive Mattel version on ebay for less than $40, which is close enough to the Super7 version to fit right in, but I more than made up for that by having to spend $200 to get the exclusive Wilykat & Wilykit, loose w/accessories, since nothing has been said as to whether or not THEY will be re-released.

I want to get started building that team in their classic looks. Put me down for Low-Light as well. Looking forward to Bazooka and Alpine. Bazooka is a figure where I imagine they will omit the ab crunch because of the lettering on the jersey. |

The Jem shirt and Cobra stickers I ordered from Super 7 should be arriving today.
The BAT, Pyramid, Glow Patrol, and other stuff I ordered the day before haven't shipped yet. I know when I looked after I ordered the BAT was a preorder expected to ship in mid-August, but I thought it was in stock when I ordered. Has anyone else seen movement on that stuff? I'm generally a "when it comes, it comes" guy, but I'd like to have that Snakeling hat before the end of the month. |

I had all the MattyCollector ThunderCats, including Kit and Kat and sold them when Super7 announced they were re-doing them. I got more than I paid for them, but I regret it. There wound up being differences in color and paint apps that I might have preferred the Mattel version, like Jackalman, whose belly was painted to have a furry border, whereas Super7 chose to paint his belly like a paint roller has gone straight up his abdomen, with no realistic transition between the light belly fur and the red all-over fur. I hope they remake Jackalman from scratch to better match the other mutants. And I had no idea we'd be waiting this long for the Thunderkittens.

The Tshirt I ordered a day or two after the Ultimate Bat I ordered, is supposed to arrive today but the Bat I ordered right when they went live, no movement. I thought at the time I ordered the what they were in stock too. |

I was coming here now to ask the same thing.
The Tshirt I ordered a day or two after the Ultimate Bat I ordered, is supposed to arrive today but the Bat I ordered right when they went live, no movement. I thought at the time I ordered the what they were in stock too. I suppose it would be easy to contact customer service and see what's up, but I'm sure they'll ship it as soon as they're able. |

They revealed the wave, we just haven't seen pics. Of the wave, Battle Armor CC. Zartan and the Bats are what I am looking forward to most. Curious which version of Cover Girl we get too.

Shipwreck Zartan Cobra B.A.T. Covergirl Cobra Commander V3 (rumored to be Battle Armor Cobra Commander) Snake Eyes V4 Female Cobra Trooper (Red Hair, Black Hair, Blond Hair in Pink, Tan & Brown) G.I Joe Camo Greenshirt (M-16 Rifle, Laser Rifle in Pink, Tan & Brown) S7 seems to always lead off with MASS Device versions of figures so I'm guessing that Cover Girl will have long blond hair with the short dark haired version to come later. I'm very intrigued about 1987 CC and 1991 SE. I hope we see both of those in Ultimates one day. The comic version of 1991 SE (with the darker blue and red) always looked super cool IMO. |
