I will buy a lot of Neo-Vipers at $5. But the best troop builder isn't out yet here, and he's the Pit Commando. I want like 20 of that guy, unbelievably cool.

Just found the Dragonhawk and Crimson Hydra in London North W-M Supercentre. There was only one of each left. Really surprised me.

Wow, that is really surprising.  On the positive side we get to see some new product, but on the negative side does this mean that we've missed the Ice Dagger with Frostbite that is in the earlier revision?

They were the same price as the other Bravo vehicles, $28 and change. They were just sort of set on the shelf randomly and I only saw the two I grabbed.

I saw the ice dagger and dragonhawk at zellers and wm here in quebec, so I don't think the boat has been missed.

However, you are going to be dissapointed with the fig. The shoulder and elbow rivets are green, which looks odd since the jacket is white (the ankles are also green, and boots are black). I thought a prototype was mistakenly put in, but then I saw another and it looks like they are all like that.

Really want an Ice Dagger. Hopefully they make it here.

I picked up a couple more Neo-Vipers this morning out of pity.  I have about a half dozen of them now, but they just aren't growing on me at all.  The masks are just too odd looking.  Oh well, at least it didn't cost me much!

Same with the Waterloo Walmart and Conestoga Mall Zellers.

Isn't it just a repaint Ice Sabre from the DTC line? Had the figure not had the flaws I mentioned above, I maybe would have picked it up, since the figure design is neat, though I'm indifferent about the vehicle. But the green shoulder and elbow rivets just stick out like a sore thumb since the jacket is white. After I saw another one and realized they were all going to be this way, that's what made me put it back on the shelf.

I couldn't resist the $5 Walmart Joes.  Now I have a Zartan for the extra Pit Commando gear.
