Those pics look great, but really ... how many pics of Lady Jaye did they need to take?  Especially when it's the worst-looking of all of the upcoming figures.

And for some odd reason, I really like Buzzer's chainsaw.  He was always my least-favorite of the Dreadnoks, but this version of him looks really great.

Serpy and Buzzer look awesome. I'll definitely have to nab those two.

After seein gthis coverage I am so stoked... more than I am for any Star wars product of its kind.


I didn't want to be the first to say it, but I kind of agree.

Unless they do some better OT Army Builders (REBELS), then I can see 25th Joe stuff dominating my budget for a while.

Nothing wrong with being truthful bro. It is what it is....

I think once the new figures from the Video Game come out, and the Comic packs... I may be pulled back in... but these have me ....

This line continues to look great, and I'm looking forward to picking more of these up.  Its too bad those customs aren't the real deal, they do look nice.  I'm definitely looking forward to Beachhead, Firefly, Shipwreck, and others.  I'm curious how long they'll continue this 25th Ann. line.  I know there has been talk of taking it into next year.  I think this might be the "new look" for Joes from here on out regardless, but the lineup so far really brings back memories for me.  Plus, its a pretty affordable line so far, so that's a nice change too :).

Wow...just WOW!!  :o  I am so sucked into this line.

WTF is up with the customs though??  It kinda pisses me off that Hasbro would show those off.  Alley Viper?  Airtight?

Pics of Firefly, Red Ninja, and the painted Shipwreck are up on that link above on page 4.

I received the first wave of single packs today from smalljoes.com. I'm really going to like this line.  :)

It was lightning fast. I got a notice saying my order shipped Wednesday morning, and on Thursday they were at my doorstep. Of course, they ship from Missouri, and I'm in Iowa, so I'm sure it was that.

They always pack their stuff well. They're my second favorite place to spend money at online next to BBTS.  :)

I forget what I've paid in the past for shiping from Small Joes, but I highly recommend them.  I order from them every once in a while and they've had some insane deals on back issues of GI Joe comics and some of the Corps figures and whatnot.  They run a pretty good outfit.

It was about $7.70 or something for those five figures through Priority Mail. Not bad considering the USPS' recent price hikes.

I bought my first and only figure so far today at Walmart, a single carded Storm Shadow.  Awesome figure, but I would have liked the string on the bow to be a little longer and removable arrows so I could pose him firing the bow and arrow.  But he gets 9 out of 10 besides that.

Did anybody get to see pics of the Stalker painted?  If so could you post them here?

I was hoping to see beyond the waves we know about already...mostly to see if that rumor list is true.
