Figures are shipped/ released in waves, so 6 or so figures will make up the new wave.
Some figures are colored to look more like their comic or cartoon appearences. I.e. one snake eyes will be more black, where as another will look dark grey with purple highlights. |

Get out while you can. The things you own, end up owning you.
It's a trap!

The "comic series" or "cartoon series" is just a label on certain figures to let you know where they originated from. Some characters were never in the comic but in the cartoon and in the cartoon but not the comic. It has no real impact on your collection or the figures. It's just supposed to make the figure more exciting by reminding you where it's from.
