A mixed reaction from me on that wave. The Fire Fly / Storm Shadow set is the bottom of the list for me. The Copper Head / Ship Wreck is the best but that Ship Wrek reminds me a lot of the MC MOTH Ship Wreck. The Duke / Red Star is also a bit dull but I'll need Red Star so I guess I'll be getting that as well.

That Storm Shadow is very reminiscent of Sigma 6 Adventure Team SS, the one that came with the tiger.

I think my favourite of this bunch is Copperhead. A few years ago I came up with a Shipwreck vs Copperhead scenerio, so it's amusing to see a comic about the same thing. It's also interesting to see Copperhead make his comic book debut twenty five years after his first release.

Surprising your not digging the Firefly/Stormshadow 2 pack. For me It's the Duke /Red Star one that I think is the weakest. Best one is def the Shipwreck/Copperhead one though :)

Copperhead is the big winner of the bunch.  I would have prefer Cutter instead of Shipwreck though.

I like them all, but maybe thats just cause I can't find them in any stores around me.   ;D  But what is up with Duke in the green's,?  Seems like a cheap cop out, should have just used a different character, someone they haven't done yet

Has Copperhead seriously not appeared in a comic yet?  Jeez I really gotta read the marvel run again...my memory of those 155 issues is started to fail  :o

I'm hoping Hasbro releases comic-pack specific characters in single card versions eventually (which they are 99.9% likely to do  ;D ) - 75% of the 25th's draw for me is the vintage packaging and artwork.  The toys are cool, but not the best part of the line for me.

I was almost positive Copperhead WAS in an issue or two. For some reason, I remember seeing him on a cover??... Or wait? Are we just talking about the 155 issue run here?

Copperhead's definitely been in teh new run.  He was one of the 'Phoenix Guard'.

(I thought he was in an old arc with Zartan, Tripwire, Torpedo, Mutt, etc too, but I guess I'm wrong...)
