RnR would look so much better without the candy yellow hair. |

For some reason I thought the SE in this wave was going to have gold trim and a gold grenade. Is that not the case? Is he just a carry over from wave 5?

First off, I'm ticked that TNI (a reputable source for much of my Joe news) is calling the Wild Bill/Major Bludd assortment, Wave 7!! C'mon people, we must agree on a standard nomenclature here. (smile) IMHO, if it's the wave following Torpedo, et. al., I'm going to call is W3-08. But anyway...
Love the look of these, of course! To the person who asked about shipping time frame to market; if I had to hazard a guess I'd say in three weeks at the most these should be hitting store shelves. Quick P.S. Why on God's green pastures did Hasbro feel the need to 'update' the packaging art for these!? Granted, it's the same character pose from the 80's packaging art, but the artist (whoever you are, my apologies) is not nearly as good! I'm sorry, but I call 'em as I see 'em. |

OMG!!!, I just got the new issue from the GIJCC today and it has two pages of "What's New, Hasbro?" The 2nd page was on the Wave 6 figures, RnR is listed as a SSgt & it's a new head mold (not bearded Duke). Cobra Commander has BeachHead's head under the helmet. As for Lt. Torpedo the flippers do have new peg holes. Wild Bill is also awesome though I think the head mold should be larger. The article also notes that these are early samples, production figures will have updated waist designs. I can't wait to get these but I still haven't seen Wave 5. For Wave 6 I'm guessing early-mid Febuary.

Are you kidding me? Rock n Roll looks terrible. His #ucking gun is way too big. The shells on his chest bandolier are supposed to be for the machine gun he carries and the ones on the GIANT gun are much larger. OMG this is by far the worst looking figure yet. Sorry Hasbro but that one is no different than a generic soldier hanging on a peg at the dollar store.

I agree that Rock n Roll's machine gun should be smaller. Also, he has Duke's leg, but a knife sheath instead of a pistol... I hope it changes to a side arm on the final product. Hasbro, Keep the good stuff coming and please hurry up on Grunt, Short Fuze, Zap, Clutch, Steeler, and Grand Slam (red). Gotta love the orignal 13.
