Yeah, the pics aren't the best. Flash, much? But we don't have anyone there, so what ya gonna do, boss? :rolleyes:

Guys like KT should be pleasantly surprised by the new Lift-Ticket. Those two headsets are awesome, yet should be easily lost over time.

MW had a press pass.. slacker for not going! Next year..

Yeah that figure ain't bad.. not $40 good though. I don't think I'll have any use for the chopper, wish they'd single card him.

I'm impressed that they pulled the THawk off.

Yeah. I'm not sure why there were so many doubters to begin with. I wasn't running around with a nerd hard-on fully expecting it, but it sounded reasonable that we'd get a Tomahawk that wasn't part of that stupid micro-line.

This ARAH F.A.G. had hope! I think apologies are due! :salute:

Apologies will be presented as soon as you decide to do a front page story about it!

I'm not unhappy to see the Tomahawk. I'll be impressed if it and the figures they say are coming, actually make it to retail.

Now I'm off for Honeymoon things!

Do I totally want that Lift Ticket and his head sets? Hell yes. Will I buy a Tomahawk to get it all? Dunno.


That samurai is the fucking bollocks.

Yeah no kidding...would love to have one of those BBI Blackhawks..but can't drop that much.

So with the inevitable clearance Tomahawks we will find this fall due to all the douche bags who decide to wait until clearance to pick them up, how much of a chance do you think we will see of these later waves hitting retail with enough mass that we won't have to search all over to find them?

My target has three cases worth of Wave 1 Retaliation out right now. I'm hoping the section expands enough with the movie coming out that they get a few more waves worth before the "death of the line".

Yeah, who knows. Why do they always make Wave 1 so shitty? RoC was the same way. At some stores it NEVER sells through.

If they have this kind of awesomeness ready, why stick us with so much shit in the beginning? If they blew through 1-2 waves of Awesomeness wouldn't that be better for them?

Another thing, I'm not a fan of Data Viper (oh no! ) he looks like some sort of weird boss character from MGS.
Click to expand...

Yeah, I'll be honest, he's not a character I was dying to get, either. Although I was the same way with the Zombie-Viper, and I ended up getting 5 of him, and I'll get more if Bantha5 finishes those other heads he was working on. The only flaw the ZV had to me was the lack of any alternate heads. (Which I remedied by buying the first 3 Bantha5 head casts that made all my ZVs unique.)

Although, I welcome any and all new characters. He's sort of cool, although a tad too sci-fi for me with that weird ass helmet. He's not bad, though. I'll buy a few, same as I did for that Jungle-Viper. Wasn't something I was really dying to get, but it was a welcome new concept.

See, I'm not interested in anything Samurai, or Budo in general. But he looks good. Although that red's a tad much.

If anything, I'll get the Data Viper to use as trade fodder. I'm just hoping this stuff hits retail with a passion. Which due to what we have seen so far, I think it's a decent possibility.

I never was excited for Data Viper except for his drone. Which made that Ultimate Duke all the more fantastic when they showed him with it.

Deleted - no need to have three up

I wanted to run fishing line from the DV handles to a Z-V, kinda have him be a "pilot".


Where did they say that Ultimate Rockblock was getting moved to wave 3? The same wave 3 that's showing up in stores right now?

Thanks MR.

I wonder if it really is going to be $50 or we're assuming because of the leaked UPC. I mean we thought it was the Tomahawk when it clearly has a different name.

That is unclear too me too. I'm thinking that the original wave 2/3 is now being considered 1/2. I'm sure Generalsjoes will clear it up sometime today.

On General Joes...WW stated that the Joe Colton / Lady Jaye wave out now is being called 2.5 - just a filler wave. Wave 3 will hit later on (May maybe?) to give these time to get through.
