I'm not stockpiling these figures, but the price seems reasonable. http://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/dealof...rc=GENEMHT35981 I think the deal is only today. Not sure what shipping is. Have a good day!

Eh, it's not too bad.

They fill in the role of "all those MARS guys who weren't Vipers, Neo-Vipers or Viper Commandos" pretty well.

Too bad they weren't in the movie , much better than the Neo Vipers and their kin which are freaking fuglyI haven't picked any up yet, I want to army build them, but they are too pricey up here, ! The only army builders for me Cobra side is the Elite Vipers, and the MARS troopers if they get marked down.

But I'm kinda glad I didn't clue in to this sale in time to be tempted by it, because, like many new school figs, they just don't hold their guns well enough for me. __________________ chris my youtube

I agree, I like how the helmet combines the Neo Viper face plate (it looks that way on the card art) and classic look helmet.
I wish I hadn't missed the sale, but they'll most likely go on sale again eventually.
