Title: Anyone getting an extra comic pack Copperhead?
Post by: canprime on September 23, 2008, 08:29:48 PM

Just thought I would ask since the new Water Moccasin(?) is coming out with a Python Patrol Copperhead.  So, since there is no news of a single carded Copperhead, the only way to get the complete original style package is to use the comic pack version with the vehicle.

I'm set with one open and one MOSC set so I have my loose one ready for when it arrives.

I am going to open the comic packs I have, when I get a chance.  They are not worth keeping MOC for display purposes.  Hence, one Copperhead is good enough.

I agree. the only MOC comic packs I have are the ones I had Larry sign at the Joe meet this year. The rest get opened.

I would have purchased 2 of each of the 25th figures if they were easier to find-  My plan was to purchase one to open one to keep, but when Canada didn't get hardly any of the original waves - and the waves we did get were so random - i quickly gave up on the one to keep option.

Comic packs are too expensive for me to buy two of for MOC collecting.

Some of the American Singles, I'll keep on the card...  I really like the art work with the foil leaf printing, so when I can get an extra of the special figures (Like Storm Shadow or Snake Eyes or Destro) I'll keep them aside to display.  For the most part, though, I like to play with things to leave them in their packages for too long.
