thanks..the backpack for Arctic SE is the same one for City Strike SE.

thanks..i hope the waves 1 & 2 will be cleared completely soon to make way for newer stuff..TRU may decide to reduce the price for the earlier waves like what they did last year for Indy..RM9.90 per fig.. hope this will happen.

here are pics out of the box..

BARONESS

-she still looks fugly ,even though her specs are now moulded on her face.



DOC LEWIS

-the Doc packs lotsa cool accesories..oh, he also wears a wig.
-those claws are cool.



DUKE

-well ,its essentially a reuse of Ripcord but with two gatling gauntlets included.



PARA-VIPER

-a repaint of the 25th version but this time ,a mini chopper cum missile launcher is included.the chopper is a b**** to attach on his back,seeing that the bottom part has a bigger peg that hinders the upper peg attachment ..hence its more of a gimmick by Hasbro .
-gonna use the Elite Paras as my squad leaders.








RIPCORD

- He comes with 4 weapons but what attracted me was the missile launcher in the shapre of remote controlled bot used by modern military..i need it for my Duke infantry team.



ARCTIC SNAKE EYES

- the head is the same as PP SE but with repainted visor..SE sure looks mucho better than Ice Viper ,any day.





STORM SHADOW

- SS is a worth buy,the backpack is awesome and so are the gauntlets.

sorry for the late reply.each carton is meant for storing 12 figures.
referring to the pic below,you need to place 2 figures ,with the front facing each other in reverse position.hence there will be 6 rows with 2 figs in each.

Added on October 10, 2009, 3:50 pmon a side note,i just bought pirated ROC movie today..although its supposed to be released next month, the pirated copy is 100% clear with accurate subtitles..
will wait for the original 2 disc DVD release next month..hope there will be longer bonus features included.
but for now,this will do.

there's a little gap left after all 12 figs are in d box..if you are worried that the boxes get dented ,then just store 11 of them.

whoa bro,,you gotta be kidding me!wave 5 is out but not wave 4..hearty congrats then ,to u for getting these gems.

today's haul..yeah its not an action figure but the book rocks..
the price is a wee bit higher than your average ROC fig.highly recommended..i wonder how i could have miss this one all this while..

the Resolute and SIgma 6 DVD that can be found in some video shops now are not from official US release..it's more of TVRIP quality.no extra features as well as subtitles.

here's the pics..sure is worth buying as u get 1 Mole pod too.

here's today's haul..

RM149.90

here's today's ARAH haul (Gung-Ho is repainted to reflect ROC status and his cap even has ROC logo)..no sign of Shockblast/N. Creeper and i had to buy both sets even though i only need Monkeywrench.





note that Copperhead comes with a cool ,new machete sheathe instead of the pistol holster with flap.















finally, Monkeywrench rejoins the 'Noks.

got them from my regular toy shop.selling at RM 64.90 each.

looks like Doc is not a hot figure now..no sign of SE or SS wave 3 at TRU?

whoa ,Helix?where did you buy the figure?

here's my latest custom ,Ultimate Storm Shadow.. for my version,i wanted an updated look from ROC but still retaining some of his ARAH features.

as such ,i gave him a hood that he wore in the Marvel comics (first in the camo version and later as part of Ninja Force)..initially,i thought of a separate hood minus the trenchcoat but it looks cooler for the hood to be incorporated into the coat.

next,we have seen a sleeveless SS appearing in both the cartoons and comics.instead of wearing cloth outfit,in view of a modern SS,a bulletproof vest makes more sense.

here's today's haul..didnt expect TRU to restock since that happened last week..someone beat me to a Para Viper tho'.

after close inspection of the Joe 5 pack.i got turned off..same for Benchpress.

bro,finally TRU restocks on PTE stuff..i got some of the figs and the playset with double decker bed and locker.
will grab the Humvee next..

Benchpress as a fig sux but he makes a perfect Sgt Slaughter..now if only we can find B'nB' figs.
