The Para Vipers sound interesting, unless they come in comic pack colors. I'll be looking forward to Mutt and Junkyard, too.

Bazooka could've turned out better, but I'll still get him... When will we have an Alpine to accompany him though?!?

Barbecue-- I was never a big fan of the character until I recently re-watched all of the cartoon's first season. You just have to love that goofy accent, so I'm actually looking forward to this one.

Hawk's collar looks a little weird, but I think it'll be better if he doesn't have the shoulder holster on. I'll have to wait and get him to see what I think.

Unlike many, I've never been a big fan of B.A.T.s, but this one looks cool. I'm assuming since he doesn't have the Creeper Bomb canister or battle damaged head and chest that we saw at Toy Fair, we'll likely see another version in a comic pack (the canister was, after all, from the B.A.T.'s first comic appearance).

I'm not a huge "specialty Cobra troop" guy either, but I'll get at least one Snow Serpent since he looks so darn cool!!

Black costume Storm Shadow-- Meh. If they'd given him dark skin and called him Ninja-Ku, as has been suggested on other forums, that would've been cool, but as is, I have no interest.

So overall, I'm pretty excited for this wave. I've noticed lately that normally I'm a bigger Cobra fan than Joe fan, but with regards to the 25th, I want Joes more than Cobras! Probably because, with only a couple of exceptions, they've already made (or announced) all the Cobras I wanted.

Yeah but it rounds out a wave of savagely awesome characters!!! I can't believe what I'm seeing. I'm three more figures closer to getting 1985 in 25th form and couldn't be happoer with Hawk and the BAT. Sweet! :D

Something just occurred to me... The Collector's Club link simply calls Hawk, "Hawk." Did Hasbro finally get the rights to the name back?!? It's certainly possible with the movie in the works. Somehow the Transformers movie allowed them to re-secure the rights to the name "Bumblebee."

I'm surprised that the wave 9 have gotten so many new bodies, arms etc.
There is only 1 repaint - Storm Shadow.
color me impressed (I was expecting more repaints)
