After finding wave 7, I thought I would share my opinions with you all on the figures.
Snake Eyes v3 - honestly, my surprise favorite. Great articulation and his hands hold his weapons well. Viper - Big complaint.. hands do not hold the weapons well, otherwise great figure and I need MORE!! Wild Bill - Kicks butt... 3rd favorite out of the bunch Spirit - Body great, rifle a little weird to hold, the head is AWFUL. I will be putting a Quinlin Vos head on mine to see if I can improve it... HISS Driver - Awesome figure, 2nd favorite. His helmet is great! Duke - I hate repaints, but this is a good show piece with the Flag and who doesn't need a silver jet pack for their grand slam!! Last edited by abesapien2; 07-02-2009 at 06:48 PM.. |

Thanx for the review and pics! After seeing the upclose pic of the HISS Driver I saw that he has the same upper arms as flash as well.
I wonder if Hasbro knows they can use the upper arms from one mold and the lower arms from another mold? |

I love the Spirit head, I think the figure is perfect. I surprisingly like the SE's more than I thought I would, and the HISS Driver is perfect, despite using the Flash upper body. Viper is my least favorite (not counting Duke which I haven't opened). it just feels off. the backpack makes it top heavy and it has a hard time being posed and staying standing.

How well does the HISS Driver sit in the new HISS? (assuming you have a Target exclusive HISS).
I was gonna comment on the preview that the Viper hands looked a little off. Does the vest get in the way of holding the rifle in a two handed "shooting pose"? Wow, Spirit does look horrible. Thanks for the preview - it will probably be at least a week before they hit here on the East Coast, but that won't stop me from checking daily! |

Great review and pics, thanks.
I was curious about the Viper's weapon holding ability when I first saw the pics a couple months ago. That silver jet pack is going immediately to Grand Slam. I've been waiting on one.
