WalMart 2 pack in hand reviews
 
I got these from my business partner the other day (after he had them for a couple of weeks) and finally got the chance today to take some pics of them to review. Thanks to JediDefender.com for picking up the tab. What your looking at are product samples of each of the ROC WalMart 2 packs (cut these off the cards myself). Comments on each following listed individually:

First up is Copperhead. This is the same mold as the Python Patrol version with the knife scabbard and a very nice color palette different from any we've seen thus far. He comes with a Gen. Hawk backpack, Roadblock v2's M-249SAW, and a black Viper rifle. This is a good looking figure and a nice complement to GH in the 2 pack.

Next up is Gung Ho. Obviously, this factory bashed design was put together to emulate the recent Resolute cartoon character, and it's a great figure. It uses the greenshirt torso, original GH head, TF Flint arms, and legs from DVD Pack Dusty with the backpack and vest from Res COBRA Trooper. The gear is a JvC H&K rifle, and a RAH Range Viper rotary grenade launcher (that he can't hold). Still, this version of GH is good stuff.

This is an updated version of the TRU exclusive Night Force Tunnel Rat. The color palette is overall a touch brighter, but it works nicely. He comes with all the standard modern TRat gear, and a black Airborne backpack. The slightly racially insensitive headsculpt is still present, as is the persistent lack of a flashlight, however that does not detract from the figure as a whole.

[center]Included with TRat, is Dreadnok Monkeywrench. While this figure is entirely a factory kitbash, it's not bad. It uses the current Outback head, orignal GH body and vest, VvV Dusty grenade band, standard 25th backpack, Snake Eyes C-4 satchel, Crimson Twins arms, and legs & feet from Airborne along with an EELS speargun. With the exception of the speargun, it all works nicely. I added a pair of cast black Oakleys from my store to the head which does a nice job of making it look different enough for even the most critical of fans.

Next is an updated version of the Night Creeper. When I first saw pics of the paint scheme/body combo, I wasn't a big fan, but the differences in color on the production figure won me over. The camo is well detailed, and the new gear and parts really set this one off nicely. The new crossbow is a work of art, but the headgear takes a touch of work to get it to "sit" properly on his noggin.

Last, but no least is Shockblast (Wave) in a slightly modded TRU Night Force color palette. Again, it is brighter overall, with added camo, but works well. The figure is exactly the same as the comic pack offering, with an added Falcon knife and Spytroops auto-shotgun. He includes the hard helmet and gas mask although they are not shown. I did have to mod the head to allow him to look down from his permanently stargazing pose, and I also took some material out of the inside of the hat sides to allow for a more astethically pleasing fit and profile. Still, a winner.

Stay tunded later today for final sample pics of Agent Helix, movie EELS, and Pit Commando with all that beautiful gear. Also, I will have some in hand pics of Reso Roadblock and his buddies this evening as well. Thanks for checking in!

Great reviews, Aly! I really thought I was done collecting. Damn you Hasbro, can I at least keep some money for the summer, please? :D
