I got my figures in and they're blowing me away. My CC has the bobbly head, but I don't see how anyone could look at this gorgeous figure and not forgive that little bit of shake. He will sit on a shelf 99% of the time and and I won't even touch him. The 1% of the time where I'm handling him and thinking, "Eh, this could be better" is insignificant. If it really bothered me, I would put some Kiki on there.
I do have quibbles. I think the bicep cuts on CC and Duke are ugly and unnecessary (the elbows swivel, so the biceps are mostly redundant). I still don't believe CC's neck should be metallic. Snake Eyes' laser rifle was curled up like a Cheeto and I'm trying to take a blow dryer to it, but he's pretty perfect. Bicep cuts and ab crunch look fine on him because he's wearing a tight outfit. Overall, I'm in love with these. Perfect toys don't exist. I haven't opened Duke or my 3 BATS yet. Kind of want to stick everything in the Thundertank. |

This line will be legendary. Now is a good time to jump in I would say. With the nostalgia factor and the fact that they are Exactly like the cartoon, I see people missing on them spending hundreds of dollars on the after market in a couple of years. Kinda like Masters of the universe classics. Just my opinion of course.

He's awesome. Only flaw I see is the loose head, but its a minor thing for me since I pose them once on my shelf and never moved them again. He's my favorite of the line, then snake eyes and Duke and least favorite is the Bat (still nice though).

You know the Cobra officer is close. It's way too easy. Considering first the comic BAT was released, then the Wave 1 regular Bat released... I am hoping SDCC will have an exclusive again and it's the officer. You got to save the Marquee characters and army builders for the regular release waves. |

Yeah, the BAT is great. I am more of the Cobra trooper guy myself. Those are my most anticipated.

Plus I don't see figures from Sunbow that are vital to the line being a con item. I see more con items being items like the Comic bat, toy variants, or DIC era repaints. |
