Might be a lesson here not to mention how much cheaper it is than normal retail, stores may not know that they are selling very low, then find out from here and adjust accordingly

Yeah, I understand now.Any sightings with cost savings, I'll keep to myself from now onwards.
Thanks for highlighting this, dzirhan.

Now this is indeed a SS worth getting more than 1.Comes with a shitload of ninja weapons.



I am extremely excited that another of my all time fav Joe is getting the updated treatment ,Sci-Fi!
Plus he comes with two interchangeable helmets!
A partially opened visor and fully closed visor.

Not saying cannot mention got sale and price if at toy shops, just don't say how much the actual savings is

I am trying to collect complete set of dreadnoks. Is there any pictures available of the whole team? anyone with extras wanted to let go please let me know.
I am looking forward to the new iron grenadier! another army builder for me.

Latest version of Storm Shadow looks skinny and the eyes not fierce looking enough. Still, it is a very nice figure.

here's a pic of 'Noks though Gnawgahyde and Zanzibar are not pictured.



and here's my Noks.

what's the new storm shadow called?

darkshadow, thank you for the pics. here is my latest acquisition, the chap mei bike. really nice.

figure scale comparison.
Always thought it will look oversized but surprisingly, it works really well with joe figures.

Today's haul @RM70 per set.One of my SS's backpack is missing from the box.damn!

guys, I am looking for ROC or 25th Baroness. anyone with extras willing to let go?

Some mods on my Resolute Destro and Baroness.
For Destro ,the trench coat extending all the way to his lower legs are obviously and absolutely obstructing his leg movements .that's a huge NO NO for me.
For Baroness, her wider facial chin construction and the puffy hairstyle make her head appear larger than the rest of the body.
I thinned off the chin area and carved out a portion of the front hair (see the pics) .Left the rest of hairstyle intact coz i like the Elvira look .

Just watched ROC last week, can't believe Rex/Dr./Cobra are the same person. They shouldn't make Cobra Commander out of a whinny Gizmo or Dr., should be a separate person...

My POC Mega Haul has arrived !
This completes my wave 3 and wave 4 needs .
I'm not getting wave 3 Duke and SS as I've decided not to collect every POC figure ,no thanks to the crappy upcoming waves 5 and 6.

OMG, now that's a mega haul indeed! hey, u bought which revision case eh dark?

sell me one destro, pls... lol

I've no idea coz I bought these out of packaging.
As for Destro,if I have a 7th, I'll sell it to you.

Will post a review in the next few days.I spent a little time "playing" with Low LIght ,Destro and Sky Dive and I gotta say,I'm amazed at the amount of accesories included for both.Low Light is a pure win,hands down.Joints are tight for all 3,which is a plus and even Sky Dive who has the least accesories comes out a winner due to his awesome backpack.

I'll be doing a review on each POC wave 4 figures ,with a gap of 2-3 days in between.Lazy to do a complete wave 4 review in one shot.


POC Wave 4 Mini Review

Low Light
------------


The Good
------------

- Comes with a sheer amount of accesories ,almost on par with 1/6 military figures .This goes to show that if Hasbro design team has inspiration ,and given the green light by Hasbro to proceed with production ,each new released figure will include tons of accesories .

- LL retains his ARAH look but with updated accesories ,this version puts the ARAH to shame .

-Sniper rifle comprises of 5 removable parts ;the rifle itself ,silencer ,adjustable sliding stock ,scope and bipod (not adjustable though).Sweet!

-The backpack has ample storage space and can be opened entirely as shown in the pics.Unlike POC FF's backpack where there's limited storage.

-Comes with a 2-piece scope.

-The knife is a new design and one side of it is painted silver.

-A bullet tray with peg for a single removable tiny bullet.Way cool!

-The "highlight of Low Light" is his rifle case.He can wear it behind his back or hand carry .

-His left wrist includes a swivel joint for better grip of the rifle.

The Bad
-----------

-The rifle scope can't stay on the pegs properly .

-Since the scope can be stored on his left hip ,the extra scope storage in the case should be replaced with storage for the silencer .

-The antenna on his comm device tends to fall off easily.I might apply super glue so it sticks on permanently .

The Verdict
--------------

This is a must buy figure ,whether you like Low Light's character or you just need him for a custom.
The huge amount of accesories alone is reason enuf to get him.
While the rifle case can be attached to his back ,followed with his backpack, both adds weight thus LL is unable to stand properly.
The backpack is new and it looks awesome .
His legs are reusable from POC Beach Head and this is evident from the tiny peg on his lower left leg .



Insane accesories





Ample storage space on the backpack ,plus inside view of rifle case



A sniper on a mission



Case and 'pack attached on figure .Don't make sense coz of weight distribution



Sniper on the job



Sniper with spotter in action

impressive!
you are army building everything. why only one shadow tracker?
also how much did you get each of these? locally or from overseas?

look forward to more of your reviews and please show more of those shock trooper. i need inspiration to build an army of shock troopers.

Thanks !
Yeah,I'm a regular troop builder.
As for Shadow Tracker,I'm not feeling him .There's no place for him in my Joeverse .
Bought them at retail pricing from one of my sources.

Will post pics of STs later .Gonna finish the reviews for the remaining Wave 4 first .

still looking for ROC Baroness (whichever version), or the one from the Cobra 5 pack.
anyone wanted to let go extras?
