oh wow so chase variants? must not be in current cases then since this is the first weve heard of it?  Perhaps in revision cases?

I would have been more keen with waves 5 and 6 if these variants were released instead of the close repaints.

Pretty sure they said these are not chase variants, but running changes.

Just an interesting tidbit, the Crocmaster repaint is based on a custom created by TTT

http://www.toyark.com/python-patrol-cro ... croc-7580/

I think its very cool that they used his idea!
I will get both of these repaints as I am a fan of TTT's customs and love the concept art repaint of Blowtorch

Oh wow. When I heard the Blowtorch repaint described, I pictured an homage to Joe vs Cobra Blowtorch from 2002, a highlight of the JvC line in my opinion. This figure is very different, although still very cool.

How else would they get people to buy another Croc Master?  And there is the answer, Re-paint him!   Someone at Hasbro realized that the old paint sceme would leave these guys warming the pegs across North America:)
