I have to say from a "Not so much of a Joe collector" Standpoint, PoC and Renegades has some of the best 3 3/4 figures I have ever seen in my entire life. They are a thigh swivel away from being the best out there.

Hasbro is making Joe collectors out of 1/18 scale collectors of all lines.

I have seen a Techno Viper, to Renegades Cobra Troopers (very cool as well), and Renegades Ripcord and Tunnel Rat recently.

I'm scaling back on the Joe line to save up for the Marvel Legends when they hit. I will troop build Zombie Vipers as I find them, and again those Renegades Cobra Troopers are sweet, probably go for three of those.

oh im not really looking for ss just surprised you got rid of him being he is pretty cool,I love the zombie viper and want at least 3 of him,I found one yesterday along with sci-fi who is really detailed imo,these 30th figures are the best looking gijoes imo.

Thanks for letting me know, its not bad though I'm not really interested n its design (not old school enough for me) but the zombie figure is the prime figure to find, because it fits into the whole cultural zombie phenomenon that has happened. That, and it seems to be pretty well made (I'll say for sure when I have it in my hands).

Zombies have the added benefit of being universal. They will look right along side any line.

I look forward to custom MU zombies using the parts...

Right, as I said it is a cultural phenomenon where a great deal of us identify with the idea of a "zombie" and gravitate toward buying such a figure. I'd buy one just to represent a dumb person (true talk, but that is why they're so popular).

flipwilson · 12-27-2011, 09:47 PM

Those zombie troopers are some of the best 3 3/4ths of an inch figures ever made. Hands down fantastic.

But since this is a "look at what I just got" thread, I just got the 2 resolute 7 packs from a friend who just visited florida and picked them up at ross.

What I got when I came back home from the holidays =)

Looks like the Nick Fury is real from Ebay.

How is that Blue Lantern "Brother Warth" figure? I've been wanting him (and Red GL guy gardner) since I first saw him a few weeks ago.

The figure looks GREAT. Stands no problem, but has next to no articulation, like most of the line. So far it fits in well with our DCUC Lanterns though.

You mean Crowbar. Crankcase is a SUV and doesn't come in that set.

KingLouie731 had it more-or-less right. Crowbar, Bumblebee and Sideswipe are all Cyberverse Legion (i.e. Legend) class redecos, while Prime and Powerglide are both Cyberverse Commander redecos.

And yes, it is a Walmart exclusive in the US.

Awesome thanks for the info you two. I most likely won't even see these at my local Walmart. I may try to hit one up that's 20 miles out to see if they had them.

Well I got most of these things from Canadian-only stores. I got Warth and Grunt from a comic shop, Cheetah from Winners, the Elite General from London Drugs, The POC Skydive from Toys R Us (Because nowhere around here has gotten the 30th anniversary yet, hence why we still have POC) and the Power Man & Iron Fist 2 pack from Walmart.

I'm a huge Madden fan because of my love for football, but NHL is the best EA Sports Franchise if you ask me.

Tiberius · 12-28-2011, 01:26 PM

NHL is the best anything

:P. Going to have to play some soon I think.

Idk, you should give tiger woods a try. I had 10 and played it for almost 2 years. Just got 12 and love it even more.
