Or... you go to the TRU website and order the attack version for retail+shipping.

Dylan in Oregon · 09-03-2011, 12:38 PM

I like your way better!

SNAP, it's just the deluxe one! I see him at retail, the regular two... Not so much (or ever.)

Boba Fettuccini · 09-03-2011, 12:44 PM

It's definitely more frugal. I dunno who posted the link to the item on the website, but they saved me a heckuvalottamoola.

vampireheart · 09-03-2011, 12:44 PM

Man if anyone is up for a trade and can hook me up with these

#15 Marvel's Hydra Attack Trooper (Movie Version)
#15 Marvel's Hydra Attack Trooper (Comic Color Version, Yellow Belts)
#16 Desert Battle Captain America

I cant seem to find these locally and instead of going TRU id rather help someone else out here with a trade

boombatty · 09-03-2011, 03:52 PM

I never saw the troops in the wild but did buy three off TRU a week an a half back. I hadn't actually looked to see the differences but I had caved and bought three wave threes from evilbay as well as a comic colored one

bmorr · 09-03-2011, 04:29 PM

I had one target selling the yellow variants. Along with a bunch of other stuff, the bogo sale washed the isles clean, leaving only iron men and camo pants caps.....I knew I wouldnt see something that great again....

perrych · 09-03-2011, 04:37 PM

I may hold off for these to show up in the store. I had two or three of the MU Hydra soldiers from the 3 packs. Neither they nor the movie figures look exactly like the comic versions but both look good. Definitely prefer the yellow comic version look though for the movie figures.

TomsToyChest · 09-03-2011, 04:40 PM

I just got back from a Super Target that's in the town next to where I live. No luck finding any extra Hydra comic variants although I saw one movie colored Armored Hydra troop but passed on him as I already have him in my Cap collection. Hopefully another collector will pick him up.

The trip wasn't all in vain as I did snag another variant Red Skull. Now I have one that I can open to do a review.

Boba Fettuccini · 09-03-2011, 04:40 PM

As a movie line purist, I need the movie coloring. But at this stage of the game, I'm getting really into the comics too so I'd take the comic coloring too. Maybe make a movie-style Bob to hang out with Deadpool.

I've noticed some differences between the comic-colored and the movie-colored Hydra soldiers. First obviously is the color scheme, green/yellow on the comic-colored soldiers and the olive green on the movie-colored soldiers. Secondly, the missiles and weapons are colored differently, the guns appear to have a lighter coloration on the comic-colored soldiers and the missiles are red instead of blue on the movie-colored soldiers. Third, the ammo belt accessory was deleted from the right arm on the comic-colored soldiers.

I like the comic-colored variant Hydra soldiers and the comic-colored variant Red Skull as much as the movie-colored soldiers and movie-colored Red Skull. They're nice looking alternatives but tough to track down in stores.

I actually passed on acomic colored troope the other day..I decided I have enough Hydra troops- two movie, one comic colored, six MU (threepack) version and one of those mis-scaled super trooper guys from the movie.
Plus Viper and Baron Strucker, of course.

I need some cheap AIM guys- customizing them with gear from GI Joes or other MU fis is great fun! I keep the basic look and outfit each slighly differently like specialists...

And, as AIM is still part of HYDRA, ou can always mix teams!

CLASSIFIED · 09-03-2011, 05:05 PM

I prefer the movie color scheme, but like how the comic version doesn't have the amo belt accessory that feeds into the arm. (I wonder if that can be removed from the movie version?)

I wish the Hydra logo was featured more predominantly on either version.

Yeah, I have no idea why this was left off, as this is a classic symbol.

I think I can kind of see it on my movie troops shoulder, but it's super tiny.

Mis-scaled? I didn't notice any sizing issues with mine, and I have two.

The ammo belt seems to have a bit of flexibility. I don't think it's removable though.

I mean they're bigger than MU Thor! They're bigger than the Wrecker too!

They're mis-scaled for their own fig line too- not bad if you want a human tank or three, just a bit///huge.

Boba Fettuccini · 09-09-2011, 05:30 PM

I never noticed. Oh well. I shall just pretend they are genetically enhanced.

The ammo thing comes off with the harness.
I was thinkning of slapping a HYDRA emblem on the chest of one of my HYDRA goons- it would look great on a darker colored trooper and I could put that guy's black harness on my other comic-colored goon (the brown version is just..not right).
