Absolutely! I'll just scavenge what interests me from retail, which is basically Jinx, Blind Master, and Night Viper. Most of the wave is shit I sent to MW for contests and giveaways.

I'm losing hope of finding Jinx at retail. I'd grab her, probably another Colton and maybe a Dark Ninja from that wave.

Probably Rza if I found the wave and those first 3 were already gone. His headsculpt is good for something.

Night Viper and Blind Master for me plzkthx. Maybe a Jinx if I see it on sale at retail (already have the SDCC version). And why is LJ labelled as NYCC?

Viperskingdom has more of those figs on eBay, I'd laugh if he has like 10 of each and they start selling for less and less.. those guys who bought the first ones must feel stupid :)

Whatever! You are stupid for not having the uber rare wrong head, wonkey eye painted test shot that only the true fans have!! :whatever:

Unless they are gonna be on the 25th cards, and we KNOW they wont ever be again (except for overpriced exclusives), who gives a f*@# anyway?

we might have a chance with the 50th Anny coming up. That's next year I believe. Not likely but we can hope right?

Combat Ninja Trooper in hand at ACtoys (not in English)

Comes with a stand, the Dog tag sort RoC Desert Duke came with. Also is that G36 new, it's like the one we got during the RoC but the stock seems shorter (so figures with vests like this guy can hold it properly) and what is the top left bullpup rifle called?

The AK one looks to mimic an aftermarket mod, and not anything in military service. The other is an FN2000.

I think that G36 is a retooling at the very least.

No, but I'd be surprised if it wasn't used as one. It would probably make for a nice NV helmet upgrade, too.

It's great if you're doing a sandbox-based custom. A little more problematic if you're like me and your Joes are perpetually in the woods.

That's why I plan on 2 repaints of these. :D

How awesome would it be if Hasbro started doing what LEGO does and release all their figure parts in mutable colors...you could just buy grab bags of whatever colors you wanted...or they could all be listed individually and you could go online shopping...$.50 - $1.00 per part...

Ahhh, dreams...

Pipe dream, that one. Then, again, they do Build-a-Droid at Disneyland, so maybe something similar, with a very limited parts list, would be possible.

Pffft..limited parts list...I wanna see this idea open to their ENTIRE Joe (and even MU) parts library!

Yeah, pipe dream for sure...I also want to win the lotto so I can own and live on a private island...

I know we've had more Snake Eyes figures than any other character do date, but I was looking forward to having what I considered the most accurate ARAH depiction in modern tooling to date, but instead, they've decided to give us the movie headsculpt. Everything else looks great, but that's very disappointing.

V.54 or GTFO.

I love that version for an updated SE, but wish the guy had thought to sculpt a strap at the top of the holster (the holster would just drop to the side as is), or made it a drop-down, and either ditch the knife sheath at the ankle or give it some frickin' straps.

Well, at least the Rockblock M2 question is answered, and he looks less likely to go Pedo Bear on any Short-Rounds in the vicinity.
