A most worthy KickStarter, gotta check with the wife and see how much quit smoking money i have left after the SDCC and FSS stuff. i think the double hoard would be pretty sweet.

My mother in law got me a Stormy and a Snake Eyes, I really like both figures and hope we do actually see them at Etailer sites like Hasbro indicated during one of the cons.

The hands from Rock Viper work pretty well, and the Bench Press lower legs are pretty close.

can't tell but it looks like there is almost no leg articulation.

one thing about these is that if you flip it over and look at the file card, the battle gear that is list has more than what you actually get,

I like the Snake Eyes, it is the resolute/city strike with the extra wrist articulation. i also like the body of CC i am going to play with some other heads to see how it looks and Duke will definitely get a head swap to be something else(not sure what thou. i haven't figured out anything to with FF yet i don't like him as FF though for sure.

Some of them are Modern GI JOE weapons: anything circle in red is JOE

the WW2 guns are 21st Century XD 1:18 WW2 http://smalljoes.com/cat/World-War-II-67.shtml the big bazooka is power team elite, i think the weapons box is too

i think he looks like Eriq La Salle from coming to america but with dreads instead of soul glow http://www.google.com/search?q=coming+to+america+eriq+lasalle&hl=en&rlz=1B3GGGL_enUS355US358&prmd=ivnso&source=lnms&tbm=isch&ei=YINFTrfaONOgtgfa9uHSBQ&sa=X&oi=mode_link&ct=mode&cd=2&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAQ&biw=1280&bih=809#hl=en&rlz=1B3GGGL_enUS355US358&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=ZYNFTsrHBdGEtgfW683kBQ&ved=0CDoQBSgA&q=coming+to+america+eriq+la+salle&spell=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&fp=3fa10b70b59adaf9&biw=1280&bih=809

the stone looks under the uv light

I didn't take a picture yet, but i was playing around with my second Crossbones (originally intended for a Punisher custom) and put the Secret Wars Reed Richard head on it and took off the web gear looked pretty good (the skin color is slightly off). I'll put it back on and take a picture.

i had forgotten about that Kamakura figure, I remember wanting one badly when it came out took a look at amazon and ebay 36 was the cheapest one. not wanting to pay that for a Storm Shadow repaint. http://www.amazon.com/Movie-Action-Figure-Kamakura-Apprentice/dp/B002ZL049E/ref=sr_1_1?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1309876237&sr=1-1 http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l2736&_nkw=GI+Joe+Rise+Of+Cobra+ROC+KAMAKURA

based on this i would say the soldier is going to be a repack: http://smalljoes.com/cgi-bin/pgen.cgi?Stage=10&CatId=60&Item=GI30TH-FIGSET1

eventually i will get around to painting these but for now they are LBCs Dice: swapped out the head for the paratrooper http://i1117.photobucket.com/albums/k599/boothj123/Slice%20Dice%20and%20Slash%20LBCS/IMG-20110529-00189.jpg http://i1117.photobucket.com/albums/k599/boothj123/Slice%20Dice%20and%20Slash%20LBCS/IMG-20110529-00190.jpg http://i1117.photobucket.com/albums/k599/boothj123/Slice%20Dice%20and%20Slash%20LBCS/IMG-20110529-00191.jpg http://i1117.photobucket.com/albums/k599/boothj123/Slice%20Dice%20and%20Slash%20LBCS/IMG-20110529-00193.jpg http://i1117.photobucket.com/albums/k59

so I bought a case of wave 5 off HTS and needed 2 more Hawk and CC about as much as i need my taxes to go up, did some heads swapping/web gear swapping. Sgt. Hacker from Spy Troops. while not accurate i thought he was kinda close http://i1117.photobucket.com/albums/k599/boothj123/wave%20LBCs/IMG-20110601-00226.jpg http://i1117.photobucket.com/albums/k599/boothj123/wave%20LBCs/IMG-20110601-00229.jpg BATS Commander http://i1117.photobucket.com/albums/k599/boothj123/wave%20LBCs/IMG-20110601-00225.jpg and Leftovers http://i1117.photobucket.com/albums/k599/boothj123/wave%20LBCs/IMG
