well... on ebay at least.
Jungle Viper is definitely coming through the china channels in a few weeks. there might be one more 2010 figure before that (right now Destro is the big concentration apparently). from what I understand it (jungle viper) looks exactly like the one from the cons but I'll believe it when I see it. I was trying to snag pics before anyone else but alas... (and actually my whole reason for posting this) it seems that things aren't going as usual for the china selling community... it seems there's more and more competition brewing. usually like toyssir gets the big stuff (originally had a good market on the 25th protos)... and WS gets the army builders or some single figs... (no more protos it seems)... and handytoy and e_only pushing the 2010 single figs... but now it seems like everyone is staying neck and neck so I really wanted to post about this because people always wonder about the china sellers... and this is the first I've really heard about any competing... I mean obviously they compete but I've had long talks with the china sellers before and they've never once told me "my competition will have it when I do." never. anyways... I know a lot of people are excited about Jungle Viper and I know at one point I was concerned that it wasn't going to be released because it really is different than most of the other new stuff we've seen... I mean it's like Super Shredder meets Night Viper meets the Vulture or something... and there isn't a joe to sort of counter Jungle Viper (or is there?) but then again there's no counter to the cycle armor either (or is there?). heheheh. I have no idea actually... i'm just speculating. anyways... I am very excited about Jungle Viper and the rest of the city strike-ish bunch. and that other Cobra Commander! too bad about the destro head though.

Well, I guess it's time to start my toy budgeting! As is, I figured figures would slow down so now is the time for vehicles. So much for that.
BTW- Do any of those sellers (I'm familiar w' a couple) sell vehicles? Thus far I usually only find figures.

Do you think they made changes to the body? I know the torso is new and the arms are mars trooper and modded lower legs?
I wonder if the helmet comes off or if the visor lifts up. In case anyone forgot, this is JUNGLE VIPER: I really want the Cobra Shadow Tracker, Jungle CC, and CS Firefly. That wave is all win. This is Shadow Tracker, leader of the Jungle vipers he also resembles Anders Friden from IN FLAMES meets Predator: + = Last edited by Zoltron; 01-27-2010 at 04:59 PM.. |

Sweet. Can't wait for the JV.
There is a Jungle Assault Duke and a Recondo, those could be the Joe counters.
