I didn't see much that I really wanted. Beach Head and that nite/frag/whatever Viper are at the top of the list.
I discussed most of this with LordRaven and Frk525 last nite. As longas Hasbro pushes the modern age under the guise of ROC, I'm cool. Cuz I'll continue to steer pretty wide of the actual movie figures and still get stuff I want.

I need a better look at this stuff, or at least an explanation. What is with the night viper? Looks like he has wings. Maybe he should be called "Raptor Viper". And that Motorcycle that becomes Body Armor....that is Soooo Anime! Looks like something from Robotech....unless I miss my guess, there WAS a motorcycle in Robotech that converted to Armor and they fought the Invid invasion in it.
My biggest fear is this is gonna derail "Resolute". Now, every figure they come out with, they are gonna slap a "Rise of Cobra" package on, reguardless of whether is will ever be in the movie or not. I guess if it boosts sales and keeps the line going for a while, I should just accept it and STFU!!! LOL
On the positive side, the detail on these figures is phenomenal! I Like it. The only things I don't like about the ROC fgures in general (besides the packaging) is the stupid looking guns (thank God for Marauder!) the spring loaded weapons (Hasn't hasbro learned it's lesson with those? Does anyone on here Really use them?) and my biggest complaint is the inflated prices! $16.99 for a ferret with scrap Iron? C'mon! I'll wait for the clearence!
But, I AM begining to come around and purchase more and more 25th style figures.

I completely agree with ender on the vehical pricing! I bought alot of the figures but can't bring myself to pay the price they want for any of the vehicals!
On one hand I really like the new figures (not tha Cobras) It's really cool to get something new that hasn't been done. So many options and new characters. On the other hand It's sad we probably will never see some of our favorites ever made modern style like October Guard or the classic looking Techno Viper or Headman and the Headhunters. With the new ROC mythos and the way Hasbro drools when talking about it, I think classic Joe as we know it is dead!
