Second Hasbro Panel Comic Packs and Larry Hama

[AirborneRigger]

- The Cobra Trooper from the 5 pack will be released on a single card along with the current Viper Pilot one in wave 2.

 

What does that mean? That the Red Logo version is going to be some kinda super rare chase like the Black Timber....or that a Red Logo Trooper will be released latter on?

No. The red logo one will NOT be released with the Viper Pilot one in Wave 2. It will be released in a future wave.

Torch and Ripper look great, although what's the deal with the reused Gung-Ho arms with flesh colored arm bands??? Let's hope that fix that before they're released. I too, would prefer them on single cards to go with Buzzer.

I must say im glad to see Torch and Ripper, but me personally(even with marvel legends) im never a fan of reusing sculpts of characters that you will be posing together in a group you know, Ripper and Buzzer use pretty much the exact same sculpt, except different heads and upper torso, when you pose them together, i dont know...they are too similar, nothing to really differentiate themselves..it annoys me that everytime i will look at Ripper all i will see is Buzzer you know...they could have just gave him somebody elses arms and legs instead of Buzzers

Torch looks great..i may have to paint those sculpted Gung Ho arm bands black or something, but other than that im liking him

Im probably just going to use my VvV Ripper, he blends in nicely with the 25th figures, same with Zarana, until we actually get her

Well, I finally have a chance to chime in on this topic and as always I must say, it is nice to see more product being made. It does not surprise me that we get Noks, but there are others that want the figure in single pack. But if that were the case and we got/get them in single pack, then people would probably post that HASBRO is just putting out more repaints, blah, blah, blah. As the team stated in the rountables, they realize that there is going to be "another SE and SS" and that is why they change the paint aps on the re-issued characters. I am excitted to see that HAMA is back and the art work revealed thus far looks great. I for one want to see what the reception is like when the new comic packs (with new stories) come out to see what direction HASBRO will take on either renewling Devil Due or going with someone new.

 

As always you cannot please everyone, so I have to say, if you do not like it, don't buy it

Let me clarify that for you. The question was asked wiill we ever see the Cobra soldier from the 5 pack released as a single card figures and their answer was "we would be stupid not to do that." They clarified that they were indeed talking about the red logo and not the silver. John the designed understood that the silver emblem is the "viper Glider Pilot". What I got from this statment was that there currently aren't plans for a single pack cobra soldier with a red logo but that it made a lot of sense for them to do this in the future.

 

No. The red logo one will NOT be released with the Viper Pilot one in Wave 2. It will be released in a future wave.

 

Well that's a load off. I was afraid that it was going to be one of those chase variants that I'd never see. It would have made troop building it hard as hell. Good to hear about that. I hadn't planned on buying the Wave 2 Trooper anyway because of the silver logo and I was really disappointed cause I wanted an army of these guys.

 

I love Ripper. Great looking figure. Torch needs some work though. Gung Ho's lower arms just aren't working here. I'd rather see them using Shipwreck lower arms. And that vintage thrower ain't cutting it either. I hope they fix that before it hits the pegs. Other then that...he looks great too.
