Does anyone remember how hard it was to finally find Waves 11 and 13 last year after months of seeing revision waves clog the shelves? Remember how hard it was to get those Resolute 2-packs at retail after they flooded the pegs with comic 2-packs that contained two lame repainted figures? Remember how many times you looked for a dag on Ghost Hawk and Sting Raider only to find out they were repacks or the last one left at that store? Mass Device DVD Pack # 5 was basically made in small enough amounts that only those with ESP could get one. If you wanted the huge battle set with repainted figures just to get a crappy version of Short Fuse you had to wait months for it become affordable at Target and by that time they magically disappeared off shelves. It sucked!!!!

Thanks 82joe. So it is just a head swap? Because if that is all it is, then I am there!
It looks like the Sgts head ends in a peg, not a socket like the Joes do. Am I wrong? Appreciate the info!

Stick the slaughter head in a coffee cup with water. Put in the microwave for about thee minutes. Once out take a pair of needle nose plyers and yank the peg out. (Mine popped right out no problem). Then twist the Slaughter head onto the Bench-Press body until snug. I used the tip of a screwdriver to round out the Slaughter head but that might not be necessary. Head fit snug and turns like it was made for the body. Use nail polish remover to remove tattoo and ROC logo on BP body (if you wish..I like it better without that stuff) Use the BP head on Breaker for a more "classic" look.

Also, I'm thinking these will eventually have to see a sale at some point. They won't be that hard to find by next week either. I still see tons of Cobra Eel exclusives and that figure was highly sought after last year. The Cobra Armor looked like it would only hold one kind of figure and looked out of scale with the RoC/25th Anniversary sculping.

3 minutes in the microwave, is that defrost or cooking temp?
That seems like a long time. Hate to melt the Sarge's pate! "Oh no maggott, you melted my head!"

I'm thinking we'll see a good sale on figs before Christmas soon enough. Transformers got some love so Joe shouldn't be far behind... especially with their overstock of early waves...
