Wave 6 pics
« on: October 19, 2004, 08:40:52 PM »

There on ebay

Cobra Slash
Coil Crusher
Torch
Electric Eel
Frostbite
Cobra Slice
Razorclaw
Shipwreck
Snow Wolf
Tunnel Rat
Wild Bill
Humvee
Night Adder

Torch and Frostbite get the :thumbsup: from me.  The rest of the wave is Seinfeld fodder (much to do about nothing).  Why more repaints, including the vehicles?  This is a trend I hate.  And making one Coil Crusher was bad enough.  A repaint of one of the worst articulated figures made to date.   Not to mention one ugly piece of plastic.  

Tunnel Rat looks like a hybrid between Tiger Force and Eco Warriors.

Waves 4 and 5 have just come out and now 6 around the corner.  This is too much product for a short period of time, regardless if the X mas season is around the corner.  Parents will not buy 2 packs at those prices.

At least my comic wave 4 and 5 packs arrived today.  Now those are sweet.

Random thoughts...

I will definitely take fork out my wallet for Torch and Frostbite. FB's snowboard rocks the llama, and the paintball gun is a great new weapon.

Tunnel Rat is no improvment to the previous VvV release. The anti-venomizing hickymabob does nothing for me.

Wow, a desert humvee and a Rollbar with a new head. He's starting to look like a hybrid between Duke and "Fast and the Furious" Paul Walker.

The Snow Wolf with removable helmet can be a useful spy gear.

The only one missing is Bazooka. Hopefully we'll be seeing him in this wave... looks like a great figure!

OK...here you go:

All comics shops in Canada are supplied by Diamond Distributions....and they have a catolouge the print each month...go down to your local comic store...ask them if you could look at this months issue (Octobers)...orders were due on the 15th but the can always back order...anyways in the toy section hasbro was offering wave six...and they list the proper two pack massortment show above...so you will not get stuck with wave 4 or something. The only donw play is that you have to get a case...which means 2 of each two pack!
I ordered one case and wil split it with a fellow collector...so I am coverd...lol!!!


 :thumbsup:

Oh sweetness... you mean I can order a case through my local comic store, if he/she's amenable to that?
