Hey guys Here is a review i did for the new wave 5 vehicles I just got in yesterday.
First off only thing i really couldn't stand is the fact that all the file cards are on the box and have to be cut out. Not that i mind cutting them out I just like all my file cards to be the same thickness.
first up is the strato-viper and c.l.a.w.
Nothing much new here. overall figure looks nice but the head is to small and sits to high on the neck and not much range of motion in tilting the head forward. The helmet looks like it comes off because the sculpted a chin underneath but it does indeed not come off. Also his gun will not fit in either hand unless he just wants to use it to pistol whip someone(see photo).
A cool feature that was included but not necessary was Remote "laser" assisted sighting camera.
It is a scaled down version of the thing that came with the trouble bubble in the 80's that i couldn't ever figure out what to do with. There is a back panel on it like the original but it doesn't seem to come off, I may be wrong but i don't want to find out.
This does come with some new missle for the C.L.A.W. I might end up casting these and selling them, If there is enough interest. They would probably end up being 6 dollars a set since it is a lot of plastic.
With this set comes the F.L.A.K. cannon. This is a fun little piece to have but nothing we haven't seen before just nice to have in a more durable plastic.
This comes with outback, which happens to be a great figure.
His gun fits in his right hand quite nicely. only main problem i have with this figure is the elbow joint is hand panted so expect some major paint rub if you play with your figures. his flashlight is removable but I'm not sure if it was meant to be since it leave some huge holes in his leg once removed.
