okay, I was at TRU tonight and saw about 2 of those 5-pack Joes.
I wasn't really interested since i already have one, mind you. but out of boredom, probably, i flipped the cover...... and to my surprise the "plastic packaging" or the way it was hold/place was different. I noticed first, they brought the single card files more to the front (upper left), so you can see it upfront rather than underneath. then Duke and Scarlett were like standing on their figure stand. (lower left, below the cards) then Gung-Ho was like lying down, underneath the GI Joe ensignia. Snake Eyes on corner at the right. and right above Snake Eyes, was Road Block. but roadblock was like in an akward position.... on a "let's get humping" position aka "dog" posture. I swear I was like laughing when I was looking at it. I dunno if any of you guys saw that at your local stores or whatnot. but that was the weirdest packaging i've ever seen. |

Maybe it was a returned set and they just did a half assed job putting them back in the plastic.

That's pretty random, lol. I'd definitely like to see it though...
Damn, man, I'm glad I'm not ALL about variants, or I'd be friggin' broke buying everything |

I keep getting the message that my pics are too big. What should I do, find a smaller camera?

here are some pics of the new 5-pack packaging orientation, and the original to compare it to.

I'm glad I havent bought a set to keep MIB I like these variants much better. Duke looks like he's screaming YO JOE! The action poses are much better IMO. I also just noticed Destro's suitcase gun is now visible
