The Club figures have pretty much always been repaints in some form or another. And they cost so much as it is, I think we're happy to get those rather than have to fork out even more to cover the cost of newly-sculpted parts!
Repaints from the 25th though feel like they're starting to repeat themselves when they've barely got going and there's a much more limited number of characters out there than RAH style has! |
WERE GETTING A DUSTY!!!

I belive some of those are customs
|
Way too good.
Some of those look way too good to be Hasbro Product.. :o

they are, the cobra truck, cobra la:( and big boa. i really wanted the cobra la, they looked awesome. |
I'd assume the likes of the Techno-Viper, Sci-Fi and Predacon are customs too just going by the level of paint detailing. The drybrushing is a bit beyond production-level figures and I've not seen hand-painted prototypes overdo it to that extent either since they'd generally be trying to get across as close an idea as possible to the final intended product.
There are customs made by Hasbro's design team, I take it? Like last year's Alley-Viper, Sgt. Slaughter, etc? The Dusty design sheet was interesting to see, though -- any more of those about? |
There are a few Cobra sets coming out too.
The Winter Pack and the Desert Pack. The Desert Pack is just plain awesome to me. |
what has everyone though about the con? for the most part it was good, but we didnt get anywhere as much unknown stuff as i had hoped. some thoughts on some of the stuff.
-the greenshirts suck @$$. -i like the 7 packs, even though the desert only had 6 in it, lol. -what sux most is target getting the good stuff while wal-mart only gets 12inch. i dont do the 12 inch(stop there pervs) and the nearest target is 2 hours away. -not yet sold on the ranking packs, we usually get one or 2 we want, but the 3rd is one we have. ex. the air pack. dont need bill or ace, but ill take starduster although hes no one i ever knew. -ill take the navel ones. -the para trooper looks great, the others were so so, but croc master should have been more buff and with much thicker boots. -im psyched about the cartoon. warren ellis will be writing it and it sounds cool, but im not liking the 10 5 min thing and the long wait we have. |
i want the Big Boa, the Bats and Hot-wire!! ;)
|
I'm looking forward to the Crimson Guard pack and the Desert Squad pack. The Cobra bazooka trooper looks pretty cool and I'l probably get the Rattler.
|
no new joe playsets yet, but here is a cool indy one.

|
http://toynewsi.com/news.php?catid=9&itemid=13155
Hasbro is so cheap I will buy the Beach Head though |
toy news has tons of great pics of the sdcc. go check them out.
http://toynewsi.com/news.php?catid=9&itemid=13251 |
talking to a few people on here it seems more then i thought have not saw any pics of the upcoming waves. here are some pics of wave 11.
       |
Looks like I'll have to left aside my hatefor 25th and get at least one of those metalic that I forgot the name.
|
wraith. dont really like the character myself. they gave him to much credit, kinda like DD wanted their own creation of snake eyes. and he really wasnt needed as the missions he did could have been carried out by storm shadow or firefly, but the figure is cool, and the mask comes up.
|
Quote:
wraith is good or eviL? |
evil, but he ha sno loyalty to anyone, only money. thats why i didnt think we needed him, hes so much like firefly, only with a batman wannabe suit.
|
Quote:
for what I have read, he is a clony of Firefly, Zartan, Bludd, Snake-Eyes and Gargamel. Not really necessary. |
South Jersey Star Wars Troops
Hey, if theres any Star Wars collectors in the South Jersey area, the Walmart in the Williamstown area has a bunch of sandtroopers and 501st troops on the clearance rack. Dont know if its worth your while cause I dont collect 'em, but if you want to build an army, they're there.
|
just saw some sweet pics in the latest issue of toyfare magazine they're putting out a new rattler and a new firebat!!!!!!!!!! :D
|
your talking about the target exclusive rattler that comes with WW arent you. ive saw both a rattler and firebat a month or so ago, just wanted to see if its the same ones or different as there is no target within 200 miles of me.
|
Quote:
Not sure if they're target exclusives the article doesn't say there arealso pics of a 25th croc master, quick kick, and Mutt |
head over to statuetoys for wave 12. in this wave we get a cartoon colored ripper, a python CG, a red symbol trooper, storm shadow, tripwire and a cobra diver in red.
 |
Quote:
let the repaints continue! I mite get some troopers, maybe another TripWire...the rest are pass, pass, pass, pass |
I'm happy to see Tripwire will be a single pack.
I vote that Python Patrol Crimson Guard the ugliest 25A figure made. |
Probably will get some Troopers. The Storm Shadow looks like it may be good to make a custom based on the "Assassin's Creed" video game character.
|
some new pictures of wave 7 comic packs and wave 13 single packs have peeked their heads.
here are wave 7 rock & roll and deep six, and gung-ho with battle damaged scrap iron(not pictured)   here are wave 13 supposedly omega foce, duke, storm shadow, cobra commander and trooper(these are not 2 packs)   and snake eyes and a battle armor fred  |
That Gung-Ho looks pretty decent. As far as "Omega Force" I'll probably just get the Troopers.
Thanks for the info. |
Forgot all about the San Diego Comic Con (aka SDCC). Look thru the thread to find the pictures of upcoming stuff.

Nice ones! Specially the Hard-master. Why Lift-ticket and not Quick Kick?
|
rattler and conquest x-30
I talked to a worker at Target today. I had asked her about the rattler and X-30. I gave her the product code for them. They done have any from Bakersfield to Tulare Calif. Still looking everyday in the stores. As soon as I see them i'll post it. Also ToyNewsi.com had some info on the 2009 releases!! BTW, does anyone know where I can get about 6 of the 25th BATs for a decent price?? Thanks!!
|
Quote:
i wont be getting the rattler nor the X-30, unless they re-release them at wal-mart. its so hard to find the bats, i have two, buts thats all i have saw yet. by the way, welcome to joedios and did you make the set in the background? |
WERE GETTING A ALLEY VIPER!!! i just read over on hisstank that were getting a 25th alley viper, here is what was written.
|
Quote:
Cuz Lift-Ticket is way cooler than Quick Kick! Afterall, Lift-Ticket came with the Tomahawk!!! Well, originally. "Put it on, smart guy!" |
Quick Kick should be easy to do. Just give the comic pack Stormshadow a new head and a sash with some shurikens on it.
I would buy one. |
LOL. I never said I wouldn't buy a 25A Quick Kick. I was just picking on those who don't seem to like the enormous headed Lift Ticket!
|
cobra temple
Quote:
Yeah. Its a several levels on the other side. Im still working on the main computer room where the MASS device will be. I have plans for a motor pool, ammo storage, lab, throne room, lounge/barricks/break room,Air Traffic Control tower on the very top. Im still trying to figure out lighting on the inside. Ill post some pics on what I have so far in the next day or two. And thatnk you for the welcome!! |
