Has anyone received an e-mail from Big Bad Toy Store saying wave 2 has been shipped?

[Viper Hunter]

Since I've been doing all the jokin' and rippin' on Serpentor here, about his bald head and whatnot, I might as well post my thoughts on him (to the contrary) having played around with and observed this figure on my desk here, over the last couple days since I got him.

 

He's growing on me. Not like a FUNGUS mind you, but in a more positive opinion towards him.

 

 

This is a pretty SOLID figure, and while larger sized (about in compariosn with Destro) I think he looks pretty good in this scale, as compared to the others. It at least gives him the appearance of being a more intimidating and imposing stature of a evil cloned villain.

 

I still don't like the bald head and the sculpted details of his face, but it's not as bad in person as it is all blown up 500 times the size on a computer screen. I've never EVER liked the painted flesh on these figures as it fills in a lot of the finer details and looks too puffy and shiney. I like the plastic for the head and hands to be flesh colored and then the hair or others features to be the painted part. Flint suffers from the painted flesh as well, and Buzzer is plastic flesh color and looks a 100 times better.

 

Nevertheless, I will still mess around with Serpentors head and see if I can make it look better, but OVERALL, his figure is a pretty solid piece of plastic, that doesn't seem as puny and fragile as the others (probably due to being larger) and I like it. His arms are awesome and would have looked better if these were used for Gung Ho and Roadblock as they have a BETTER muscular detail to them. The elbow straps look like hell on those guys and I don't like it when thy do that, but anyway...

 

Serpentor gets a bit of an upgrade by me, on my critique of him earlier.

[Lady Jaye]

I still say it looks like crap!!

 

No luck whatsoever this past week or so! Nothing has hit Wal Mart or Target!! I won't even bother with TRU!!

[kingmoredred]

i hit six wallys 2 targets and tru and nothing as far as wave 2 did pick up another flint and snake eyes for customs but that still did not justify wasting the whole day @grumpy@ @faint@ @cussing@

[Kill Solo]

I scored a set of Wave 2 today, I think it's an excellent wave (even serpentor). What I want to know is, why in the heck do the Cobra soldiers come with a damn sniper rifle?! Can someone tell me why? Are all Cobra troopers snipers?

You do seem to have a hatred for bald people. Are you a baldaphobic? Do you go around committing hate crimes toward Bald men in your spare time?

I'm BUSTED! @lol@

[bluecyclone]

Found Serpentor, Lady Jay and Buzzer at a local Target today. All the other Targets I hit had series 1.

[Card]

No wave 2 here yet, but im sure they will all show up this weekend while im in Atlanta...lol.

[tuga viper]

i hit 3 walmarts, 2 targets, 2 kmarts and 1 TRU and .... nothing. just saw a bunch of 5 packs but not even 1 single pack.

 

oh i live in jersey. might have to go to tru nearby and see if the manager hooks me up again.

Found mine at Target this afternoon, the whole set! Only one set there however, maybe an employee picked up the other half. Strange that they placed out an SE, SS, and CC out along with the 2nd wave, maybe they found them stashed somewhere.

I'm fairly certain SE/SS/CC are all apart of the Wave 2 assortment and round out the 8 figure case. Still irks me that they didn't include the Officer instead - but two army builders in 1 wave would make WAY too much sense, I suppose.

[Rama Sha]

Flint and the Officer really should have been part of the Wave 2 pack considering they were short packed in favor of the very figures they packed in again.

Hopefully they will do some 2.1 revisions or the like - seeing as Wave 2 is hitting and a large majority is still searching high and low for wave 1.

[Rama Sha]

Hopefully. That is if they even ship anymore cases of Wave 1 now that Wave 2 is hitting.

[dblogan]

Still nothing here in Virginia....

 

Hopefully they'll show up this week at Wallymart

Found a Buzzer and the Wave 1 carryovers from Wave 2 today at Walmart.

[CLAM]

the wave 2 case has:

Beachhead

Serpentor

Buzzer

Lady Jaye

Cobra Trooper

Snake Eyes

Stormshadow

Cobra Commander

 

 

I have no clue why they put Snakes and Stormy back in the wave 2 cases, they are already the only ones I could find from wave 1. I still need to find Flint and Cobra Officer.

 

Plus, the fact that they are including the wave 1 figures again, means that all the wave 2 figures are shortpacked! Beachhead should have come 2 per case, and so should thr troopers.

[kingmoredred]

it takes hasbro awhile to learn. For example the starwars line, the army builders were the hardest to find for a while and now they are everywhere. They still make ten thousand vaders just like se and ss are going to be, so i guess some things they just cant learn. like case ratios and how many times you can make the same figs with a diff color here and a new head there.

[Rama Sha]

What I love is that one brand doesn't learn from another brand's mistakes even if they are in the same company. They all have to learn the lesson for themselves instead of just looking at the guy next door and see what happened to them. It wastes a lot of time when every line has to start from scratch on this sort of thing.

[kreyonkid]

dangit! that sucks, beach and trooper only one each per case? trooper for army building and beach for customizing, come on hasbro you motherpackers! pack it right!

[Dmoss78]

Still nothing here in Virginia....

 

Hopefully they'll show up this week at Wallymart
