He was probably typing with his beck.  :shifty:

His beck?

Funny thing is, that "beck" is Dutch for "mouth"

I meant his beak.  I have been running around like a chicken with his head cut off today.

I know - I just saw the humour as Beck is mouth in Dutch - which is what you were trying to say anyway.

Oh well, see what happens when Pete tries to make a funny.  It blows up in his face.

Okay...well, I already have a Gristle so unless this convention set shapes up better then I won't bother getting it.  I got last years because of it having Sparks, Doc (Carla) and the female Cobra Troopers ftw.

It's better than Gristle, but I don't like Gristle at all. The flesh tone is wrong and the colour choice doesn't work for me. He reminds me too much of the IG set from three years ago.

Anyone want to split a boxed / bagged set?

There is no shadow this time...  :shifty:

I'm waiting to see other figs before deciding if I buy the whole set or a part of it. I don't have the big "WOW" effect of last year with those cobra girls, doc, R&R, ...

The ARAH set this year is [...] There will most likely be a 3 pack of G.I.Joe's (SWAT team members) you can buy to go along with this boxed set and a few vehicles.

Do we now have more information on these? A SWAT team including Shockwave could look very nice...

Nothing else to report except the two figures shown.  It's been almost three weeks since the last update. And nothing for the 12" has been shown either.
