These COULD be legit, but perhaps they will be the Walmart exclusive wave? My only concern that makes me wonder, is why wouldnt they use the legs from the comic pack Red Star figure. Those legs looked more Major Bludd like to me........ The mass device CC could be in a "battle pack" with that Baroness, and a couple of joes........

If these are real I can say I'll buy them all! Now if these turn out to be customs I can also say my hat's off to the custom's creator!

Ya know, the more I look at these the more I am starting to believe that there may be something in the works that hasn't been annouced yet, like a DVD with figure (or figures) packs.
Especially that 1st mini series Baroness & CC with the element jar. THEORY: Just think of the 1st mini-series (5 episodes) released on DVD, each episode released singley (making 5 packs) with a figure or figures & you have to collect all 5 packs to see all 5 episodes!! Easy way to get both adults & kids on board before more non-Hasbro DVD box sets are officially released of the classic toon again. Hasbro did this with Beast Wars 10th anniversary already, (classic episode DVD/classic figure repaint pack)... & the Battle Packs are like this with a comic being carried over that you have to buy them all to see the full story... Might make sense for some 25th year Joes... a classic DVD episode of the cartoon with a matching repaint/minor retooled figure that is featured on the episode. Just a thought... Furthurmore Hasbro would hold the rights to the DVD property untill somone else buys them up. And there is some future TF stuff coming out with DVDs. Spytroops had DVD packs. PoweredConvoy also mentioned the thought of other figures coming with the different elemental tubes in the pack, so you would have all the elements when you bought them all.

Major Bludd is a major disappointment. I love the Baroness' shades however. Much better than the Himmler looking things. That cant be real. No way they would just use other parts to make him...

My guess is that are pretty old images, and probably done before the Red Star figure was put together.

Yeah, you are right about them probably being old. I guess I should say, I think that they will use Red Star's legs in the final version of Bludd.

They look nothing like the pics Hasbro has released in the past. The focus is off, the white isn't crisp, they look like they've been painted by a customizer, not by Hasbro.
I will say that if I'm wrong, I'll admit it... but they just don't look like the caliber of stuff Hasbro has been putting out. The Baroness is awful.

Roadblock and Bludd look like they use the old O ring leg design. The others might be legit though even why would they release python patrol cobra soldier as a single card when a 5 pack with a repaint of Copperhead would make more sense. And why waste a single card for another Cobra Commander which is slighty different. While it looks cooler than what we got, it still doesnt make sense.

Hmm...thinking of the Red Star/Bludd leg issue...it makes sense that the legs were probably developed for Bludd and Red Star is the benefactor. I mean, I know there are some Red Star fans out there, but Hasbro isn't going to develop new parts for him this early, except the head that is...
