I think there were actually very few WM's that had them for $4.99
The peg tags at Target was the only place that I ever saw them for that price.
I would have been cool if they would have brought the new stuff from the back and actually had something out for that price. I'm glad customizers found uses for those peg-warmers, but around my area you couldn't actually get new figures for that price.

M0NEY-B · 12-03-2008, 03:59 PM

I don't need another Water Moccasin, but the upgrades make this one worth getting.
Maybe this one will be Copperhead's pimped-out hotrod version and the others will be for the troops.
I will get the Skyhawk too, but mostly for Lift Ticket. He will look good flying my Tomahawk.
I like the improvements that they made on this one too, but not enough if it didn't include LT. Why couldn't they put glass in the canopy this time?

I ripped this baby open and stuff was hidden under the base...here are some details:

-Yes, all the figures have stands
-the MOBAT is motorized like the old one (move the turret forward and it moves forward!)
-all figures come with accessories
-all come with file cards, even the vehicles

M0NEY-B · 12-03-2008, 07:22 PM

I'm sure that we all hope that they will, but only time will tell for sure.
I hope that something good is coming and that's why they pushed back the Stinger and Arctic HISS.

M0NEY-B · 12-03-2008, 07:48 PM

Has anyone ever found one at retail?
I was really hoping for a clear variant instead of a clear-blue variant, but I would get one if I found it at retail (or if someone hooked me up for retail price

).

fosterlager · 12-03-2008, 08:04 PM

I'll keep an eye out.

Syn3sthesia · 12-03-2008, 08:11 PM

Have seen W10 too many times and no variant! Those online retailers seem to have gotten all of them.

Da_Last_2_Walk · 12-03-2008, 09:01 PM

Wave 10 just hit here in the Land Of Oz last week.

Only a lonely Tiger Force Duke was left!

I saw it in store but did not buy the Comic pack. It looked brighter to me. Anyone got pictures?

I haven't found the POD or Arose DVD packs yet, much less the best of pack yet.

Flint · 12-04-2008, 07:53 AM

I'd like to see a comparrison too.

M0NEY-B · 12-04-2008, 10:29 AM

I thought that I had read the only Viper that was different is in the new 5 pack.
Does anyone have pics? I haven't seen the new cp's in my area yet.

Flint · 12-04-2008, 10:38 AM

This is a good army builder two pack either way. I'm glad I held off on the IG/Destro comic pack.

M0NEY-B · 12-04-2008, 11:11 AM

Fixed hands on the Viper would make me buy more, but this comic pack is why I passed on the SRO IG pack. The fact that I didn't want a black and purple IG helped too.
Comparison picks anyone?

Flint · 12-04-2008, 11:13 AM

Looks like we are the only 2 interested $b.

Optimus Scourge · 12-04-2008, 11:20 AM

Not a side by side, but, a pic. Posted at TFW

I found half a set of these (dreadnok, blowtorch and cobra commander) this morning at my local Walmart. Someone else got the complete set before me.

Flint · 12-04-2008, 12:23 PM

Haven't found wave 11 or twelve yet, much less 13.

M0NEY-B · 12-04-2008, 12:46 PM

I got 11 and 12 from HTS, but I will have to look for wave 13 at retail.
A few people on the Tank have found them already. I would have ordered them, but I only want Blowtorch until I see the others.

Syn3sthesia · 12-04-2008, 01:11 PM

We are just getting W10 in numbers.

M0NEY-B · 12-04-2008, 03:13 PM

The the POD or Arose DVD packs are all over by me.
Retail + shipping and I got you Flint.
Somebody snag a Best Of pack for me so that I can cancel it from HTS.
They're not shipping it for another 2 weeks.
