Yeah, I noticed Repeater is a wave 2 Roadblock with a Night Adder vest, H&R looks to be the vault tooling, Charbroil is the Retaliation Joe Trooper. Repeater and Charbroil will undoubtedly have new head sculps, as well as Muskrat, but I'm having a difficult time figuring out Muskrat's recipe...
Muskrat:
Quick Kick upper parts, Jungle Duke arms, 25th Firefly feet(it's those straps), POC Snake Eyes thighs & knees, we all know the boonie hat I hope, Lamprey vest

They definitely should have gone with the entire POC Snake Eyes legs too.
Cobra Mortal is NOT a ninja & shouldn't even come with a sword! Plus this is the Venezuelan version! Hail Chavez!

Which according to that file card has the same MOS as Short-Fuze?
I'm disappointed with the web gear too. I was sure it would be the 3 pack Retaliation Beachhead one at least according to the card art sketch.

That Frag-Viper base just does not work. Letal will be slightly less neon in the end. When they announced him most of us knew he was wacky neon. :p

I don't know, are you guys remembering a different ARAH figure? Sure, the lower legs look silly with those "weights" (what the fuck are those supposed to be on SE anyways? I guess weights?) but that Frag-Viper looked like wacky ass to begin with.

The Letal repaint looks like hell, and White-Snake-Eyes-As-A-"Different"-Character doesn't work for me, honestly (especially with the Cobra Commander stirrup pants? WTF?) but I think Frag-Viper isn't half bad, all things considered.

Weird that they're using that SE mold already. I wonder if it'll come out before the actual SE? I don't think the sash is the worst thing in the world, or the rest of that figure. Worst part about him is the Jazzercise lower legs. Besides that, I actually kind of like the Frag-Viper. He's a stupid figure to begin with, so it's not like he had much to screw up. Amirite?

All the vipers out there and they do Jai alai Viper?

At least they aren't fucking up a cool viper, and the train of foreign figures half the community doesn't know/care about continues. I really can't complain. The fewer good ARAH concepts untouched by the club the better.

And what are those exactly?

Those two desert Duke figures (V.3 and V.4) from the early '90s have quite a bit of potential.

It's weird that they choose to use those lowers considering the original apparently has black knee high boots...especially with all the boot mold choices to choose from why they choose to make him look extra a$$y...

Like I said above, that figure had boots, so it's weird they gave him they WAY old lowers, which are Flash/Grand Slam BTW

Yeah, the sash isn't the worst part, it's the second worst part...first is, like you said, those lowers...they look ridiculous...again, why in the heck they used them is beyond me...I think the ones from Shockwave/blast woulda been perfect...

The ankles just ruin the whole fig for me. I can't stop looking at them. The other two are total meh for me. I will most likely sell those two off.

I know what her saying, they are pretty awful...these two catwoman figures below (two are the same figure, just different colors) are all I can think about when I look at that Frag...

BTW, anyone got that black catwoman version on the left they want to get rid of?..the DCUC/DCSH



Just wait until the IG's find out about them...

That's the purple-carded DCSH G3 version right? That thing's rare as hen's teeth. IIRC it was in the Nightwing/Two-Face wave that was cancelled, then uncancelled, then got about two cases distributed before being re-cancelled.

I have one MIB in my storage unit, but I'm assuming my daughter will want it in a few years.

Rare, no idea...I didn't even know there was a black one up until 1/2 hr ago when I saw that pic...found out its because she was in the DCSH line, which came long before I got into DCUC...but if you want, I'll trade you my purple one for your black one...or OR, you can donate the backpack to me...either or is cool :D

There's one on ebay for less than $100, for now....

Seriously, they made about seven of that figure. Believe it or not, DCSH distribution was worse than when they went to the DCUC line. Mattel has it wired in their DNA to make cool products that you simply cannot purchase. I think they feed on it, like some kind of enthusiasm vampire.

I didn't know it was possible to be worse than Hasbro...between MOTU and DCUC (and now DCSH)... Why do they bother?...I reeeeally wish Mattel would do both those lines in the same spectacular sculpting glory in 1:18th...but then, maybe it wouldnt matter...couldn't get them anyhow without serious headaches and $$$

Oh yeah, they'd design them, and it would be a giant cock-tease. They would overflow the WM pegs with Reverse-Flash and Elongated Man, but Batman would be a Swedish toy con exclusive, and Green Lantern would be released but only found at Walgreens in South Dakota. "We don't control the retailers' warehouses" they would say...

I've just seen that movie too many times.
