The new COMBAT SQUAD will feature military-style figures in the popular 8-inch scale. The 2007 line will include LEATHERNECK, SHOCKWAVE and BEACHHEAD …. all with the KUNG FU GRIP!

Way too many 8" figures. What happened to the 25 new 3.75" guys?

Did you go to hisstank to find out?

I like the 5-packs. That's suited more to someone like me who likes the new Joes, but isn't a die-hard. I'll definitely go for that, rather than worry about getting 25 figures separately.

Leatherneck and Beachhead!!!!! YES!!!!

Aw lame! So only the other fifteen will be made available on retro cardbacks ala VOTC? While the sets would be nice if they were in addition to those ten figures being made available singly, it sucks that some of the heaviest hitters won't be getting the single treatment. I'd spend MORE money to get two of them (open/sealed) on retro cardbacks over the sets. Boo!

In particular, the inclusion of the Cobra Trooper in one of the 5 packs and not singly is a colossal fuck-up. I really hope the ten are made available singly at a later date or something.

Yep, just lost my money on this one Hasbro. I would have picked up a select few, but I'm not buying a five-pack just to get one or two figures. Oh well, they looked cool.

*sigh*
Snake Eyes, you're a whore. I used to LIKE Snake Eyes until they saturated the market with him.

Yeah I really haven't liked Snake Eyes ever since they turned him into some hardcore ninja. He was better as just a stealth commando with martial arts skills.
