i only bought extra Shipwreck as i need him for parts..as for the others,i already bought doubles and triples and more much earlier before TRU had the promotion..then again,if waited till the promotion is going on,most of the sought after figs will be long gone..

is it possible if any of you guys terserempak with city strike snake eyes, can buy for me first? will meet up with you guys and I will pay for the figure. haha. Again, those who 'terserempak' it. haha

Pushing your luck here ehh?

If you can't get it, much less for us who don't work at a toy shop...

What's the inside scoop? Your shop didn't get the stocks?

problem right now is that hasbro has not been giving us ANY GIJOES stuffs since November. We have been getting stocks on Transformers but nothing on Joes. Asked my boss a couple of times when we are getting stock for them but he keep telling me there is no news about them. Oh, btw, the Snake Eyes is for me. Not gonna sell it. haha.

as i mentioned earlier,there wont be new Joe shipments till march '10...you could try your luck at parkson as some collectors have spotted wave 5 there..

LOL!

Those collectors spotted them, but bought them as well d... One per case, gone, gone, goners!

Sideshow is planning to make Shockwave, no, not the TF Shockwave/Shockblast/Laserwave, it's Shockwave.

And Beach Head will get the nod too

Not surprise they are going that route since they have Fire Fly mold for both.

advocado: Silver head with slight blue color scheme like Cobra Commander's battle suit? Sure not the battle armor suit? And it's a robot?

There were one, but i never seen one as a 25th fig or even in the vintage...if you're talking about the original B.A.T.? This one comes straight from the comic when it was first introduced by Doctor Mindbender, while introducing the vine pod weapon. It has a silver visor, with slightly darker blueish uniform and is an android.

The other robot is not a robot, but a cyborg, from the ARAH series (A Real American Hero wave), called Overkill but i'm not sure which version he's suppose to be (there's several of him).

Then there's Wraith from the 25th line, just a guy in an silver armor.

But Destro also sported the same description as you mentioned (despite not a robot), is the first Destro version, in blue suit and silver head.

Cobra Commander also sported the same thing, blue suit with the silver battle mask.

Vipers also had the similar color scheme, their dark blue uniform, with the same battle mask as Cobra Commander.

Yes it's Wraith. Anywhere i can find one below rm35?

Added on December 2, 2009, 9:21 pmAlso i'm thinking of getting another elite force figure but they come bundled with the same weapon set... or worse 5 weapon set, though lots of weapons and the paint job are much better & as the packaging say it's quite realistic, I don't have enough figure to carry them or compartment to store/hang them. Only downside is the rocket type weapons don't have a hole you can slip the rockets inside. Seriously the photo on the card does not do justice to the actual figures.

advocado: Oh man, i'm not sure if you can find it in KL though, i got my Wraith from jstbid, wraith's an awesome fig (despite the wires hooking his weapons to his arms), but nonetheless, most awesome looking fig i've seen.

For your info, Wraith's actual name is Charles Halifax, a frenchman who stole the prototype armor made from China. He sneaked into the facility, stolen the armor and killed dozens of chinese soldiers without breaking a sweat. His first armament is the same (well, similar) to his 25th fig, but i would really love it if they had made him equipped with small miniguns on his arms.

Why I see got 3 versions? 1 normal with abit of blue, 1 is clear blue limited and i see another one is silver/grey/white (which looks good), is the latter a new version?

advocado: I've seen the version for Wraith's in slight blue and the translucent blue (they're probably trying to imitate the "ghost" of wraith) and the one i have is in grey/silver/and some blue. There's never a "white" colored scheme though.

A hisstank forumer did a custom on wraith, by making the wraith's mold and turning him into a clear translucent color instead of blue, that's awesome. You may find it in ebay coz he's selling them there. But it's really pricey as hell.

How many versions are there for 25th?

I didn't get any double, but it helped push me to buy some figures I've been holding back, like Scarlett Covert Ops & Cobra Viper Commando! Also, was down in KL last week, and managed to stock up on a whole load of collection 2 figures like Flash, Cobra Eel, Crimson Neo-viper, elite viper, general hawk, heavy duty and deep six! didn't see any Helix though, or pit commando. Saving RM10 off so many figures is sweet

advocado: That image you posted, that wraith's white is actually silver. I don't think that version actually came out in retail, more like a prototype if you will. So far, there's 3 versions and the slight blue is a variant, as in, wrong coloring i think.

Yes, I'm not 100% certain but from what I recall, the case has all the figures as listed here http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product...732&mode=retail
except for CS SE. Some how, the other figure in this case was a Neo-Viper.

@wast8

you saw the camo version of Storm Shadow as well?

Yes, but I only got the jungle ripcord. CS duke , Desert-Viper and Accelerator Duke were all there.

hmmm....that is strange indeed. why CS Snake Eyes is not in it but the rest are...hmmm....
