If a Snowcat is made, I will jump on that one.  One of my favorite vehicles as a kid.

Well hot damn!!

Talk about a bunch of great reveals.

Every single reveal was a banger in my opinion.  I love the update to Doc and Jinx.  Night Creeper looks great and I love that they included the V2 head.  GNAWGAHYDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I mean what is there to say about his reveal?  I love absolutely everything about it.  From the Pets (a highly articulate Boar with a nose ring and one broken tusk?  YES PLEASE!!) to the sniper rifle kit, to the bow and arrow, to Gnawgahyde himself!!!  This is a fantastic reveal and I can't wait for him to get a release.

I also loved the TF two pack of Roadblock and Tripwire.  Roadblock gets his Ma'Deuce and I am surprised that they gave Tripwire almost all of his kit from the first release as well.  I would have expected them to leave out M.A.C.L.E.O.D. and just give us the detector and backpack.  Also I love the TF print on M.A.C.L.E.O.D. that they give to the vehicles, a nice little detail.  I will say I can't unsee the "tiger stripe speedo" on Tripwire after someone mentioned that is what it looked like to them.

Another great set of reveals.

Agreed - I think Doc looks the best!  The pill bottles on his helmet are a fantastic touch.  Removable vest for those that want a more original look.  Torch has coloured tattoos!  The other are also great looking, the two pack of repainted figures is going to be on the pricier side, I hope a regular release and not a store exclusive.

Also I really hope Torch's sunglasses are not a hot mess like Ripper and Buzzer's are.

thanks, B.

Both love, and hate, the new leaks of Mad Marauders Sgt. Slaughter and the two pack of Low-Light and Spirit.

Hate the Mad Marauders colour scheme.

Love that they didn't just do straight repacks/repaints, but actually changed up the accessories quite a bit to make the packs a bit more unique from their original releases.  Also another pet!!!  I am pretty surprised they gave Spirit a different bird, even though it is most likely a reuse of Freedom with different paint apps.

[akpayne]

Agreed, the colour choice of the mauraders was never my favourite.  I do like the idea of them being in a two pack - hopefully with a lower price point than buying two individual figures.   Strange that Slaughter still comes with his "mini-me" figure.

Will be picking up Aireborne today, looking forward to him.  Can't wait for the others from this wave.

[akpayne]

Airborne is great.  I had a very hard time geting him out of the plastic tomb!
Green googles- where do they go?  Night vision spcs that fit onto the helmet don't work or look proper.  And I wish the shovel on the backpack was removable.

Everything else about the figure is excellent.  I love the "reflective" glasses,  box art shows clear plastic, but these will look great once he is inside the Dragonfly.

When I picked him up, I was also informed that Metalhead should be arriving next week too.

[akpayne]

Sadly no Metalhead this week, it was the 60th Sailer/Diver.  I don't think I will be picking up the 60th figs, the only thing I really like is the gear they come with, but the price is way more than I would be willing to pay.

Yeah people were expecting Metalhead through Amazon.ca but it looks like they had the date wrong.  Everywhere else had him releasing in April.

I agree about the 60th figures, but I am a sucker and will pick them up anyway.

I also preordered the HMS from Pulse, but I'll wait on the rest.

Looks like anyone who ordered the VAMP off of Pulse needs to get ready.

They have moved up the expected ship date to next week (March 12th).
