Hey Canprime,

If anyone is selling off extra Crimson Vipers and not expecting the moon for then I would love to get one.

Send me a PM it you are able to grab me one.

What do you consider you price range?
I'd rather not go over $20 US but if it's only a couple bucks more, I can work with it.

That said if somebody sells then for less (i doubt it, but have to put it out there) than if $25 gets me multiples then go ahead.

Of course I'll throw a couple bucks on top of that to cover shipping if you are successful.

Tell the guy with the HATE set they have great taste.

Last night I bought one off ebay for $12.99 plus $5.00 shipping. That seemed fair to me. Baroness and the Twins are going for a bit more right now.

I just wish the club would have posted the extra figures and cost up front. I've been one of the loudest voices on the MC board for about the past 4 years about how they need to make more foreign figures and they make them as the extra stuff. Man, if I had only known. I'm so ticked off right now it's not funny.

I don't expect those to go for a fair price on ebay.

If anyone has a Baroness and the Twins they would sell at a decent price, LMK.

Haha, I'm such a spaz...

I read "S.A.F. Helicopter w/Blades" and thought, "Why would they sell it without the blades?"...  'til I realized what was going on.  Duh.  :lol:

CRAP!!!!

The computer I'm using to upload photos won't let me use my Iphone.  My camera ran out of battery power so I used my Iphone for the new figure photos.  I'll have to upload those tomorrow, but I'll post some of the new vehicles.

He is a mix of ARAH and Resolute.  COMPLETELY BADASS LOOKING!!!  He will be a no brainer for buying.  If I can figure out how to get the fig pics posted then I'll put them up tonight.

Just some thoughts.

- I have better pics on my Iphone of the vehicles, so I will get them on as soon as I can, same for the figures.

- The Sand Serpent (Night Raven repaint) is actually pretty sweet in person.  
- The Cobra Ice Cutter is unique, but ultimately I think it is an easy pass.  It is Alpha size
- The Cycly Armor is VERY reminiscent of the Robotech Cyclon armor.  It is really sweet looking.  Alpha class price point.
- The HISS Attack Scout is basically the treads of the new Bravo class HISS with a little weapon attached and the driver right down the middle.  Not a very attractive mold.

- The JUNGLE VIPER is basically a Night Viper from ARAH with green Archangel (Xmen) type wings and one HUMONGOUS sniper rifle that can be dismantled into parts.

If you can find the pics tonight (I know, like that will be a problem), take a look at the figures, they are SWEET!!!!  Hasbro really went all out for the 2010 line.  

Right now Zartan and Jungle Viper are my favourites!!
