Excellent news. More stuff that I won't be able to find.

If there's a Cobra trooper, he'll be disappointing in one way or another. Mark my words. He'll be in jeggings like the Missile Command figure (thanks for another win, Bobby!) or he'll be needlessly retooled in a way that sucks (built like the Fang pilot with weird proportions and really ugly articulation) or they'll repack the MASS Device 50th trooper, because...50th...so it must be our best available product, right? No need to scour the archives to make sure. They WILL screw this one up - somehow - or I'll eat my hat.
And if I'm wrong and he's somehow a really awesome figure, he'll be un-findable as has been suggested by Jinx723. Not that it would matter to me at this point anyway. I have all the Cobra Troopers we need at my house already so even a new "ultimate" that is actually good wouldn't really be needed around here anymore. Last week, I officially returned all of the retro line I had purchased for the kids but skipped giving to them for Christmas. I canceled all of my outstanding pre-orders except for one order with two Scarletts and a Roadblock...just in case that one actually ships at least I'll have access to a pair of Scarletts. I don't even want that Roadblock but returns are easy. Other than that, I'm out until further notice. Possibly for good. The kids are about done with this stuff so my expiration date has just about come anyway. I'm in purge mode.

The kids are about done with this stuff so my expiration date has just about come anyway. I'm in purge mode. I’m like minded. On top of everything you said, there’s the Walmart issue. But at this point I’d be almost as apathetic if they were up on Pulse. I just preordered a bunch of Star Wars Hot Toys. I think I’ll focus on them and OT 4” Vintage Collection unless I’m shocked and surprised. After that Duke I can’t image I will be. Right now it would take Hovercraft to get me excited.

If indeed one of them is a trooper then it must probably be the POC mold or the one used in the Cobra missile set... Any of the two are fine with me and I will get like 2 or 3. Pre orders at Walmart in the day of the sale are easy and last way more than Target does so I'm confident we would be able to get al those figures... 😀✌️

If the names are the same as Classified, this is a Cobra Trooper, Zartan and Flint, no?

The kids are about done with this stuff so my expiration date has just about come anyway. I'm in purge mode. Not getting my hopes up, but if Cobra, Zartan, and Flint are indeed the characters for Wave 4, then here are some ideas I'd like to see: 1. Cobra/Cobra Officer - which ever figure this is, it needs to be the POC/DG 50th figure with updated paint apps. I would really love to see, eventually, is a Cobra Officer with a raised chevron on the helmet and a silver ensign on his chest. 2. Zartan - this is figure I really expect Hasbro to screw up on because of the logistics of parts belonging to the same sprue or tree. I think Hasbro has the parts to make a really nice ARAH-homage Zartan like using a Storm Shadow v.34a torso with Zartan arms, legs, & accessories; but I think ultimately the issue lies with whether these parts can be sprued together. 3. Flint - while a repaint of the DOTD Flint seems like a no brainer, I would love to see them offer this figure with a 4" version of the Classified head with removable beret. I think it is interesting though that with both Wave 3 and 4 there hasn't been any rumors of new vehicles. Jason |
