They look pretty good.  But is it me or is Scarlett more modern athletic in figure than her cartoon version? Her waist was usually narrower in the toon.  |

Well, I'm sure they'll sell some of those Troopers. Doc looks great. Scarlett is good, but could have been a tad better. Storm Shadow, I am all ninja'd out at this point.

If were to buy one it would be trooper, two it would Scarlett even if she's IMHO a bit off model. 5 I'd buy two Storm Shadows and then sell one to pay for the other 4 figs....hey, sounds good in theory.
The problem is waiting an eternity for the figures. And money and it's not my scale. I'm bored.

Doc: Surprised to see him before Stalker...or Roadblock.
His mortar has removable flare....but no stretcher.
Storm Shadow: I'm "ninja'd out" too :-)
Looks good...but only 3 arrows? One near useless extra head.
I hate collecting white figures...just a matter of time till it yellows.
Comes with Excalibur.
His tattoo was never revealed in the cartoon...is Super7 trying to tell us the cartoon and comic are the same universe ;-)
Scarlett: Missing those nice female curves. So close to being perfect.
I like the alternate head better...the one without the headset.
Cobra Trooper: I like that they fixed his torso so he can have a large COBRA emblem on his chest...only problem is this will make the one Cobra Commander has, seem even more puny.

So April Fools Day Joke that is real product?   I'd have made burping Cutter over Mutt, or Blowtorch "porkchop sandwiches". Or none, since there's a ton of media to mine besides fan edits. |

Yeah, and the only appeal for these is keeping them on card. I guess Mutt does have a new version of his dog, but there's so much more that can be done with this line. Feel like the latest reveals have played it safer.

I wanted to get Scarlett (5-point reaction) and see if I could switch the head onto the original 1982/1983 figure.

It would've been funnier if the Joes came with a kid from the PSA. But then who'd pay $30+ for these carded?

A very safe wave. So what happened to army builders?  |

Flint's card art is terrible.
While I'm not a fan of 5-point articulation, I still think they will make great vehicle operators.
Flint or Scarlett piloting a Skystriker.
Storm Shadow a Cobra Rattler.
CC, Destro, Bludd, Baroness in HISS tanks.
I might cherry pick a few and store them in my pile of loot...hopefully I have an address before it's time to ship them.
The dog sled is the coolest so far.

I was wrong, the army builders are revealed and gee, I can see Super 7 sitting on these for awhile if they make too much. Snakeling factory workers from Pyramid of Darkness  GI JOE female combat engineer from...I dunno.  |
