advocado: Like darkshadow, i gotten mine from an independent toy shop but i had to buy a whole wave to get Matt Trakker. If i remembered it correctly, each figure costs about RM 30, which was a good deal but then again, i'm also getting some unwanted figs.

Reaper,RM30 per fig for wave 11 is quite high..i think i got mine for rm20..wave 11 is a winner actually as it consists of Eels,Para Viper,Trakker ,Airborne and Zartan ..the other 3 being Bazooka trooper,Pilot Scarlett and the other character i dont remember.

also,that wave was sold out quickly, compared to the previous waves.

darkshadow: Sigh, what can i do? Only 1 shop in KL that sells 25th anniversary figs and they scalp the prices like nobody's business. So RM 30 per fig for wave 11 is the cheapest for their shop compared to the wave with serpentor with the six figs for RM 240 plus

fuh, wave 6 selling for RM240 and just for 6 figs??man those scalpers really jack up the price.

Serpentor was a peg warmer as several ebay sellers were selling him at rm30 ,i think ..but that was months ago,way before ROC hits theatres.

well, Reaper at least you got it at no more than RM30 each..weird that wave 6 is pricier than wave 11.. hmm.gif

darkshadow: I think the only reason they scalped it that high due to Serpentor fig but i'm only guessing. Yeah, hence RM 30 per fig for wave 11 is still a good deal compared to wave 6

ashnic: Yup, the very same shop. The only shop that sells 25th anniversary. Anyways, is this the wave 8 you're talking about? None of the figs there i'm interested though sad.gif

In the meantime, i'm trying to get my friend to search in ebay for the Snake Eyes vs Red Ninja troopers pack (my friend saw one that sells about RM 200 i think, pricey but worth it to get the red ninjas)

user posted image

and wave 11 revision 2's

user posted image

Comes along with awesome figures, para viper, red ninja, and along with a bunch of vipers and troopers for troop building. I calculated the cost that each fig is about RM 25 to 30, with shipping, should be around RM 200 plus for 8 figs, that's about 30 plus per fig. Not bad though, coz i really wanted to make a squadron of red ninjas (all i got are those crappy green Ninja Vipers with the Joe's version of Storm Shadow repaint) sad.gif

I also keen on wanting to get Scarlett in her original uniform, Roadblock and Destro (but i would preffered "The Revenge Of Cobra G.I. Joe Entertainment Battle Pack", that Destro has green eyes and better paint job, my friend managed to get it loose). Problem with this wave 11 revision 1 is that i only wanted Scarlett, Roadblock and Destro, the rest i'm not interested (coz i already had snake eyes, gungho, storm shadow and Duke in 25th isn't all that nice)

dzirhan: Man, i'm tempted to get those weapons from those cheap knock-offs action figures that they sell from TRU's own brand. Makes me wanna get their tanks too. Awesome details for their weapons and vehicles. But bad paint job on some of the vehicles though.

Fatimus: They do bring in RoC and 25th anniversary stuffs but it depends on the location. My friend told me that Ipoh's Parkson Grand actually sells the Cobra Stinger

And Cobra HISS Tank

Damn it, i wish he would have informed me, always wanted to get those 2 vehicles cry.gif

Anyone from Ipoh can get them for me? sweat.gif

i bought 3 red ninjas ,at rm45 each last year..they do look nice but still no match for Night Creepers,the ultimate ninjas.,.the man catcher staff for Red Ninja is cool tho.

PG shop is selling Hiss tank at rm64.90 ..a litlle high compared to the initial release price of RM 55.

Reaper,your purchase of wave 11 is a revision case?

darkshadow: Yeah, gonna get the revision case for wave 11. For RM 45 for each of the red ninja is still alright, rather than RM 60-70 per fig. And yes, Night Creepers are awesome, i love the design and i love the characters' first appearance in the marvel comics, where their first assignment from Cobra Commander is to kill Storm Shadow, but ended up getting dozens of their numbers slaughtered. Man, for RM 64.90, that's still a good price compared to the independent toy shop that sells clutch and vamp for RM 64.90. The size alone for the Hiss tank should worth it. I wanna get that though.

Fatimus: Brick Brothers Toy Shop? But i never seen any 25th anniversary vehicles being sold in the KL's branch.

i think he meant Big Bad Toy Shop..

Cobra troopers are usually cannon fodder for the Joes but for the ninjas to be easily eliminated is ridiculous.

anyway,the wait for 7 pack Cobra Attack and Defense is driving me crazy..heh.
maybe with the next 3- months being cooling off period for new ROC shipments,we may finally get them...

--->must get N. Creepers and Alley Vipers.............

on a side note,i saw one ebay seller listing Destro 2 pack yesterday at RM 135.i think i'll pass as i only need Destro's removable mask.box design is rather nice tho.

darkshadow: I'm also looking forward to the Cobra Defense Island pack, i love most of the figures in the pack. Range Vipers, Alley Vipers and Night Creepers are the most wanted.

I think you can try to order them in ebay, though it's gonna be expensive since its not "official" release yet.

A friend of mine managed to get the RoC Destro 2 pack and had shown me the box set. Very nice, i love James McCullen figure in his business suit. It's great to pop off his head to replace it with the Twins or Cobra Commander.

I really wished that Hasblow would design and release HEAT Vipers and SAW vipers.

darkshadow: HEAT vipers are the only troops i noticed recently that they're bunch of suicidal troopers. I mean, who in their right mind, strap so much rockets on each of their legs anyway? lol

But nevertheless, they're the most coolest looking figs.

I'm planning to get this knock off APC vehicle from TRU. A lot of Hisstank forumers love the world peace keeper, elite force and JSI 1:18 scaled toy line for their accessories and vehicles (not the figures of course) from these lines as they're exact same size fit for the 25th anniversary and RoC figures.

I had crapped my pants to see the sheer size of these knock offs...

These pictures were taken from one of the hisstank forumers

I looked and were awed by these...but JSI 1/18 scaled toys are a bit more pricier than your typical knock offs but then again, they're painted better

This is from the world peace keepers line

I have to say, i really like the details of the vehicle. I think i need to do a paint job on it, perhaps dark grey or dark blue for it.

There's a lot of accessories for those who wants to do a simple diorama for your 25th and RoC figs, like this locker with a double bunk bed. I'm planning to get them soon too
