[s:2s70grbr]Any idea if they have shown up in London?[/s:2s70grbr]
Wave 3 was a WM - picked up the Duke and SS on the peg.  Still a Duke left.

Strangely, they seem to have blown through the whack of Wave 2 they had, but Zellers has all of wave 2 - including JVs.

BTW, if anyone can hook me up with a Shock Trooper and SE, it would be much appreciated.

New wave at Cambridge. The only figure left was Snake Eyes. I bought it.

He's Ok but I have to wonder if they guys at Hasbro are having a contest to see who can include the most gear with the next Snake Eyes figure.

Wave 3 at North Osahwa Wal-Mart.

Picked up 3 Shock Troopers and 2 Snake Eyes.

So if anyone needs, I have some extra Shock Troopers and an extra Snake Eyes  ;D

Picked up the Shock Trooper today and Duke. I passed on the Storm Shadow. I just can't do it. He is fugly and I already have a billion Storm Shadow figures. The Snake Eyes I got the other day was alright. I was surprised he came with detachable silencers for two of his guns plus 3 swords, two removable knifes, an Uzi, a sub machine gun, two hand guns, a spare head and a partridge in a pear tree.

Storm Shadow has that silly budo looking chest plate and some other stuff that didn't wow me.

I also bought Duke with the huge guns on his back. I figure a new head will do wonders for that new Duke body once I ditch the huge gun / backpack thing.

Man, how do these guys ever get any missions done? I seems like they spend all their time  accessorizing with the latest fashion.

Hasbro, please mix in some new face characters with the old.

7.92, not too bad I guess.  Toys r us had them at 6.99 and 7.49 for the spirit and quickick.  Now they're 7.99 for all including roc.  Wal-mart has them for 6.99 still but wave 3 hasn't made it down here at all I don't think.

Alright?  He's probably the best snake eyes figure to date.   He's awesome!

I've always had an issue with figure not being able to hold everything that they come with, plus the 3 swords was a bit of over kill IMO. I did really dig the silencers and the fact that you can put a silencer in it's own spot of his right leg holster. The web gear just got a bit cluttered looking.

It is a good figure, but I don't think I would say he's the best yet. I still like version 3 of Snake Eyes (the one with the silver knifes on his chest). He just looked cool to me when I was younger.

Wasn't there a more recent version of Snake Eyes where you could clip the extra gun from his hip?

I just found the Snake Eyes figure today. Reeeeally diggin' it.

I was gonna grab a Shock Trooper too, but my display shelf is so cluttered as it is and I need to leave room for Jungle Viper. (he gets his own corner)

The whole wave is available at Wal-Mart @ Dufferin Mall if anyone needs their fix.
