I figured TARGAT had a HUD. And I think someone goofed on the Alley-Viper. Just don't know if it was the toy designer, the mold maker or the card artist. But you can tell the Alley-Viper was a favorite of someone at Hasbro too just by how he was decked out for the ME line. Tonfa in the shield, two removable knives, the grapnel could be taken off the backpack. Someone put a lot of love into him. ... Then they made it stupid to troop build him without also owning a lot of Mindbenders.
Oh, I hope Hasbro makes that Cobra Commander pictured on the back of Snake-eyes’ box. The Baroness looks bad ass too.
So Pulse sent me an email today reminding me that the release date for Snake-Eyes is July 2020. I'm guessing they ran out of their early shipment. My surname is at the end of the alphabet - maybe they were shipping in alphabetic order. Coincidentally, I'm used to having to wait for everything. I'm not too sad about it - totally fine with waiting until July.
There were two sets of preorders, one set for April and the other set for July. I think you may have gotten the second preorder run. And I discovered that they ship out based on how many of an item you order. Those who ordered one Snake Eyes got theirs already and those like me who ordered two shipped not that long ago. If someone orders all five (the max order limit), I wonder how long until they get theirs.
Looking at that (beautiful) art, it almost seems like the figure should have been molded in blue with a painted orange pattern instead of the opposite.
Snake Eyes ended up arriving today rather than tomorrow, when it was originally scheduled to arrive! Don’t know what to say that hasn’t already been said, but it really is a great looking figure!
Sorry, but your logic doesn't follow. For what it's worth, I only ordered one, and I ordered it the day it became available for PO. The April deliveries were a "surprise - we got our shipment early" kind of thing. It was probably a partial shipment or something.
When it first went up, it had the release date of April but then it sold out. Then it was re-added with a release date of July. It all happened in the same day.
It’s not an argument dependent on logical reasoning it’s a statement of fact. There was always an April release at initial preorder.
that's why they're stand ins, not permanent, i expect to see someone eventually post a pic with of SE with Jazzwares Firefly stand in. I was looking at 1/12 heads and someone has already created a rock and roll head, not sure what body that would work with but customizing has started in full effect and effort for Joe, much more so than the AI figures pushed
Robo does a (very) quick comparison of Snake Eyes against Articulated Icons Solitaire and White Ninja at about 15:20. And just after that, he's got a couple Timber stand-ins.
Two separate preorder my dude. The first batch that went up for preorder had a release date of April... those guys started getting their's this month. The second batch of preorders went up for a July release. Those of us who got in on the second preorder aren't getting them yet and probably won't get them until June if we do see them early. There was always going to be a batch of folks that got them in April... the surprise was that they started shipping in March.
Yeah, I got the news late so I was a July guy. It's all good though. I'm just enjoying seeing all of yours to pass the time. Whoever came up with the Cobra symbol is a genius. Easily the coolest symbol for a faction in any fiction. It always looks good on Baroness especially.
More dusting and reorganizing. These are my absolute favorite 25th Cobra trooper, they are from the Mass Device dvd pack. These guys are definitely not being boxed up!
Yeah, I just wish they would explain why Cobra choose that name/symbol? I think they put too many of them on her, like 1 or 2 would be fine; one on the chest and another on the belt, but not on the forearms!
Isn’t there a square box molded into the inside of the visor? I know there’s one on the 25 year one. I always thought that the cobra emblem on the front was a camera and they watched the little screen inside. Maybe it had night vision or flash compensating tech?
I waited the requisite 24 hrs before opening my packages. Two pleasant surprises, Last Laugh is huge and Snake-Eyes interior art sheet needs a frame! Damn this is some impressive packaging.
