    Yep, that would be a good vehicle to have at this size.

    I bought a Nightcreeper for the head, the weapons and head look fine to me.

    The ball joint on the Night Creeper neck is very big but then opens up if you had a dremel you could mak it fit without drilling a big hole in the head.

    It lost the top neck articulation but the red ninja head didn't have much range either.

    Now I need to find legs that fit the red ninja and boots to fit on those legs.

    "...A ruthless terrorist organization determined to take over the world." That job ain't gettin' done with stern words and time-outs, just sayin'.

    Anyone got a good alternate name for the wave 1 Roadblock? Using CI as Heavy Duty and Heavy Artillery as Roadblock, but all 3 look different enough to be unique characters

    That's a great one! Considering it was a repainted Roadblock, I'll probably go with that one. Thanks!

    Was just going to post that. Unfortunately I'm broke until the 14th. Oh well. Hopefully they're still in stock or they get more by that point.

    I couldn't believe they were still in stock when the Pulse email arrived. Once I get the shipping notification, I'll cancel my Amazon order that hasn't shipped yet.

    Hot damn, in stock and ready to ship?? NICE. Picked up two more BATs and another AV.

    I'd pretty much figured I'd be getting these from other places before they got around to finally putting them up on pulse. What a nice surprise.
