Wow, that sure is fast. Thanks for your participation ,guys! rclxms.gif rclxms.gif rclxms.gif
tsg, join the poll man.that goes for few other Joe collectors out there. You know who you are .

It appears that almost everyone dislikes poor Breaker .The only good thing going for him is the laptop.
Also, almost everyone loves CS SE. Odinn, you included both variations of him . thumbup.gif
cranx, I'm gonna assume the three anonymous blue camo outfitted Joes being Shipwreck ,Breaker and Cover Girl ?
As for vehicles ,everyone chose R.H.I.N.O .Congrats to those who own that wonderful piece of vehicle .
I'm still hunting for it but it's not gonna make it to Malaysia .Oh well..

yes Shipwreck ,Breaker and Cover Girl, and also I just hate blue camouflage for some reason.
It just doesnt make sense to me, supposed to blend in with the sky or sea water?

Ice Viper, people either like it or hated it. tongue.gif
as for Destro, which version do you guys hated so much? the TRU 3 pack or single carded?
also the reason for hating it?

i agree that blue camo makes no sense.camo usage is generally meant for jungle and desert based missions.
maybe it makes sense for Shippy to wear blue camo but not the rest.heck,as if to lead by example, even Hawk sports that color.
as for Cover Girl, she is simply hideous.She looks like some neanthedral ape. shakehead.gif
Baroness face is also horrendous but thank goodness ,her outfit makes up for that error in design.

I just dont have the feel for Ice Viper or any of the ROC Viper variations ,yet I ended up with lots of Neo Vipers due to purchasing the Rescue Mission ,5 Pack Cobra and Attack on Pit HQ.

as for Destro,I simply just cant accept the one from wave 1.the baggy outfit and the oversized holster does not do justice to the man.and the fact that two of his huge guns are attacheable via the holes on both sides of his hips.
same thing applies to the SRO 3 Pack version.

lol!! neanderthal ape! laugh.gif

Destro, not everyone hates it though. this blogger..a forummer here as well seems to like it a lot.

Comments:
1) i love his apparel, this suit he comes with does make him look a New World Dictator and that un-flip cover does provide him with a sudden coolness....

2) Improvement on the facial Sculpt as a i notice most of the single carded Destro has a slight lump on the side of its head, a some of the eyes paints are way off.

3) Overall the Best Destro i have seen! Hasbro did an awesome job with this guy!


http://thecobracollection.blogspot.com/200...-exclusive.html

I myself think the SRO version is not that bad. guess it all boils down to personal preference.
glad we agree on the stupid blue camo though! I would have gotten some, if in grey digital camo.But definitely not blue!

Pitt
Dragonhawk
Cobra gunship

4) Name your FAVOURITE ROC ACTION FIGURE and VEHICLE that YOU OWN

The only way to build your AV squad ,then team (let's not even think about an army) is for dept. stores and TRU to bring in Wave 1 and its subsequent revision case .

Or you can source from ebay.com .even then ,most of the listed AVs have receive bidding .

I am sure TRU will bring in, no?

saw lots of TRU exclusive quick kick and spirit. slow / not moving at all. hmm.gif
I have zero interest for quick kick, spirit camo pants is too bright for my liking. May consider if the price comes down a little though.

Not many fans of the Rescue Mission SE sad.gif

The Destro from the SRO pack is better than the single carded one imo, color-wise. Won't care less if we never see another Neo Viper unless it is remodeled into something superly awesome.

The Dragonhawk would've been cooler if it was larger and could fit 2 figs, like the RHINO heli. Reminds me a bit of the old Dragonfly heli iirc, if only it was as large as that.

Don't think TRU will have more than 5-6 of the same cases so probably 5-6 AV will be available..I hope I'm wrong about this. sweat.gif

EDIT: wave 1 is available in one department store chain so far, elsewhere not yet.

jediwalker, tsg and Reaper, thanks for your participation.
for those who haven't replied to the poll,i hope you will do so.


The summary of the poll is :
Joe blue camo is a NO.
Neo Viper is also a huge NO.
CS SE is a favorite among collectors.

here's hoping Hasbro and Sommers don't make the same mistake with GI Joe sequel.

I think 2-3 cases of TRU Exc. Spirit and Quick Kick arrived at each TRU outlet last week.
And indeed ,they're slow movers but let's give it a week. but most likely, they'll end up as peg warmers ,similar to both Arctic Doc and Shippy.

There'll be a running change to the Hiss tank, which will make it available in Black. Isetan Lot 10 has Hiss tank, Wolfhound, Ghosthawk, Doomcyle and Mechs at std price. At RM40, not surprised Quick Kick and Spirit not moving that much, if it was Snakeyes you can bet it will be cleared out by the scalpers.
