I agree. I would also like more 5 packs.

Examples:

Crimson Guard Pack
Tomax
Xamot
3 Gaurds

Dreadnok Pack:
Torch
Ripper
Thrasher
Monkeywrench
Road Pig

B.A.T. Pack
Mindbender
4 B.A.T.'s


Joe Packs could just be classic Joe's packed like
Wild Bill
Recondo
Dusty
Bazooka
Mutt

or whatever.

Basically I just want more variety and save the troops
like Vipers for battle packs.

The o-rings are gone I think is a plus but let's get these figs to hold their weapons....

Agreed. Almost all of my figures can't hold weapons in their hands straight. And if you so much as breathe on them hard, they fall out of the hands.

Oh, and the ability to sit down like the old Joes. I cannot emphasize that enough. I should not have to mod my figures to make them sit.

A few of my gripes:

1) the aformentioned crotch problem. I would like my figures to be able to interact with the older ones (IE: SIT IN THE VEHICLES)

2) Foot pegs seem to be incompatable with the older pegs (new Cobra troopers cant stand in the terrordrome)

3) What happened to the backpack holes?

4) I was hoping that, with new sculped figures, we would get new sculped weapons,....(oh well, Marauder fixed THAT problem)

5) Whats with the sculpted closed hands? Cobra COmmander and Destro's left hands are useless!

Enough of Snake Eyes! He seems to be the easiest character to troop build with and that sucks!

I love the pistols and holsters, I'd love near every character to have one.

Maybe even a spare gun with everyone, like Shipwreck. That way I can build up a nice spare armory.

I wish they had a screw in the upper back, for easy disassembly... I hate the idea of cracking figures opened, and then having to glue them to do a custom...

I am not a big fan of the way the heads are done, as their jaws/chins look weird... The heads look a little robotic (think "I Robot") with the way they sit on the neck.

The hand and sitting issues are also on my list, as I have already broken a Flint hand off trying to remove it for an "easy" customization (Hasbro reps said that these were made with customizers in mind???).

However, that being said, I am still fairly pleased with these figures, and am hunting them enthusiastically... Found all three Waves already!

Hey, I know how Flint is inaccurately sculpted without the gloves and his sleeves rolled up. So I was thinking that you could use the Shipwreck figure and just simply do swap. Has anybody tried this yet? And does anybody know if the arms on the 25th figures are easy to pop out and swap?

[the_loud_master]

iwant the legs to be more durable. after a while because of dramatic poses and action sequences they get really wobbly!

[Gung.Heaux]

longer pegs on the back packs..............which i see was done with beachhead..........and i totally agree with the bicep/90degree issue.
and the raised logo on the base is a bit hindering....but i am 100% happy to be getting the stands..........hear that hasbro? star(cough)wars.

Sure, you just have to crack open the upper chest is all, then you get to glue it back together when you're done

I am with Scarlett on this one. I love the old Joes too much. I would love it if they just did the Orig 8 figures again.
YO JOE!!!!!!
