I'm pleasantly surprised. I had ideas on what to expect but whether Hasbro would follow thru, that was an entirely different matter! I like the Stormy for the most part but at the same time, I wish there was a tad more. I like the addition of the loin cloth that came from VvV. I'd prefer him to have knee pads (ala DD's influence). And lastly, I'm not sure if I'm down with the sandals. I know, I know, they are typical martial art shoes but they just look more like sandals to me.

Please notice that there is most likely NO O-RING! The analysts over on the JBL believe there is a chest articulation and then ball n socket joint for the legs. You can already see the double-jointed knees and then articulation above the elbow and on the forearm. Notice also that you can NOT see the joints on the shoulder and elbow (which is more like the late GI Joe figures as opposed to ARAH and is that a BAD THING???). I don't see ankle articulation but I'm GUESSING there's a swivel calf (pant meets leg wrapping). Anyway, word up.

Hasbro will be releasing the names and pics of the 1st 10 (we're not sure if it's a random 10 or the 1st 10 on their list) on their website over the next few weeks or months. Expect these to see mass release sometime this summer. Don't be surprised if Hasbro releases these AFTER the convention OR that HTS will be at the Con where the hardcore fans get 1st dibs.

Understand, there are a ton of rumors floating around. I can see a $10 price point for these; just like the SW VOTC stuff. But there's another rumor floating around that these will come in 5-packs and retail for $25. Only rumors/speculation.

And I admit, it'd be REALLY funny if these killed off the S6 line.
