    Thread winner!!!

    Hi Guys,

    I've got some good news for you guys and will possibly be the...

    :bay BIG WINNER OF THE THREAD!!!:bay ​

    I see a few of you guys are trying to figure out what figure is in the blind pack so you don't get doubles. Well I got some news for you that is music to your ears. There is a product number stamped on the outside of the package that matches what figure is inside. Yes, it's not soo "blind" packed! The product number is on the back of the pack, to the right of the UPC, and here's a list of what's what:

    A02080MM - Green UNSC Spartan II
    A03080MM - Yellow UNSC Flame Marine
    A04080MM - Red UNSC Marine
    A05080MM - Green UNSC Pilot
    A06080MM - Purple Covenant Elite
    A07080MM - Blue Hayabusa Spartan
    A09080MM - Green Covenant Elite
    A10080MM - Active-Camo UNSC Spartan II

    Once I noticed that each pack is stamped with a matching product number I was able to find 3 of each figure including the Active-Camo. Hope this info helps a few of you find what you need. You can now quote me and tell me how awesome I am :D !

    I too have never played the games. I am a fan of the Red Vs. Blue series though and started collecting them because of that. I also noticed that the hands are the same size clip as what Hasbro is useing on newer figures like Breacher and Darkmount. They're also the same size as G1 Headmasters, Micromasters, and look great on the bases like Scorponok and Metroplex. I hope they come out with a Series 2 soon. I want different color Hayabusa Spartan armors and different "Active-Camo" figures as well!

    Awesome. Unfortunately, I just got a blind pack with a Hayabusa in it, so that info is almost completely meaningless to me.

    Quick note about the "rails" on the newer TFs; They're a little bigger than the minifigures' hands, probably about the same size as Lego minifigure hands, so it's probably not a good idea to leave them holding on to the TFs too long; I had one perched on ROTF Brawn's shoulder and the poor spartain's grip on her (yes, the spartan's a "she", deal with it :D  ) weapon became loose.

    Does anyone know if Target is going to sell the blind bags?

    I've only seen them at Walmart/TRU.

    Sure. PM sent. We can work out the details.
    Glad to hear someone can use these codes to find what they need. I just hope scalpers don't use this info to get all the Active-Camo. Then again, a scalper may have already figured this out since they buy a ton to resell. I just wanted for us geeks to be able to get what we want.
    I've taken an empty pack and scaned it on the price check machine. Targets have them in the system, but at least the Targets I've checked, has their aisle location marked as N/A. I think that means that they haven't gotten them in yet. Funny thing is that Target has them in the system for $2.49 and Wal-Mart sells them for $2.50. So much for Wal-Mart being the cheapest! Hopefully they become more available.

    I'm also trying to recolor one of the Hayabusa Spartans useing RIT dye. I'll let you guys know how it comes out.

    I did this one..Hey if you just feel arounf the package I can tell who's inside by the gun or sword. Pretty easy. Got 3 active camos, 2 Green Elites. I got a extra Spartan I colored him up. Also did a Abitor for my son and he loves em.

    I wounder if it has to do with when they were produced? Early production codes versus later ones. It may be an attempt to keep them a mystery. I'll check it out once they get back in stock in my area.

    ^I hope so. Given how popular these seam to be, since they sell out fast, I would say it should have at least a couple of series sets. As long as they keep good color schemes and have an "Active-Camo" version of one of the armors.

    I hope that IS an Arbiter....of course, it might not be. The Arbiter's gear DID change colors from gold to silver in Halo Wars.

    Also, anyone get product codes for the new figures?
