Thanks for the pics and review, definitely getting a few of these, hopefully he'll be easy to find because of the movie.

God, I hate that packaging design.
Those discount figures Gyre posted yesterday have a significant advantage over the Retaliation in the graphic design/typography department. I feel bad for the designers who had to do that. I can only imagine someone from Hasbro/Paramount's marketing department saying, "No no no NO. It needs more POP! It needs to be more... Ninja-y! Put some Japanese characters on it and some koi scales. Oh yeah, and use some random 'asian' looking font like what you'd find in a Pei-Wei menu... PERFECT!" *shudder* Nice little review. Very thorough and you covered pretty much all of the usual parameters. I can't believe you hadn't heard of the ankle/wrist articulation! You must have definitely had a "SQEEEE!" moment when you realized how articulate this figure really was outside of the package I do! I'll do a headswap and post some pictures later tonight. Also wanted to post some comparison pictures and some group shots with other POC City Cobras. That's where this SS fits into my collection...

I have to say that after reading this review I am more excited about this line now - 95% satisfied - the other reserved 5% is the customizer in me talkin... if ALL the new figs have the "rocker" style ankle articulation it limits the usefullnes of those parts in conjunction w/ previous lines... hopefully it is just the ninja figs that incorporate that design...
