3 running change, 1 regular. The missles aern't painted, the arms(BeachHead?), legs, and hands are different. Paint apps not applied to inner arms, and no elbow pads.Has a holster for knife and gun on legs, something on left leg also. Well looks like I have a squad leader.Strange, I wonder why this stuff happens?

When I lived in Massachusetts, I always went to the stores in and around Framingham/Natick and I still do when I come for a visit, and I always found tons of stuff....haven't been there for few years now, so maybe some things may have changed ;)

Yup, I know- got a few of them myself last weekend. It's actually the same SB upper and lower torso with new arms and legs (taken from Stalker/POC snake eyes mold), and those legs were also used on blueshirt etc.

All of these changes were no doubt purely a cost issue, similar to when Hasbro removed the blueshirt's barbed wire and one of his pistols for the second wave release. I think its an intereting change for the SB (especially since the original ones appropriately changed body parts several times back in the original line) but he doesn't look as good as the original 30th wave 1/POC release look IMO. This time, his missiles are actually molded in khaki rather than the original black. The bayonet tip of his rifle is unpainted as well as the shovel on his backpack. Thankfully I have so many spare parts that I was able to get mine replacement pistols, silencers and knives for those lonely holsters on their right legs!

Just went to that area last night! The area isnt nearly as scalped and picked clean as Attleboro- You can still swing by there and make a good killing by hitting TRU, Target, TJMaxx, Marshalls, Newbury Comics, 5 Below, and Walmart (or as I call it because of its shoppers: the Framingham asylum).

There are 0 in Stoughton and 0 in Natick (because I bought them all, heh heh).

Sounds like they have crept their way to Texas. May take a couple more weeks to hit here.

[Air-tight]

Yup, they hit Texas retail yesterday so I think it'll be any day now. I'll be doing a massive recon mission this weekend in some classified areas so I'll keep you cats posted on what I see.

Once they show up, If anyone does find Techno-vipers that they don't want, snag them for me and I'll return the favor.
