Here is a nice review

https://www.youtube.com/live/iaojzXlmjus?feature=shared

I ordered the first wave of 4 from Super7. CC is the best one IMO.

Can't wait to see who will be in wave 2. I'm hoping for Raven, Shooter, Lady J, Scarlett, ...

Beside the Baroness, I always thought female characters were not well made by Hasbro.

You might get one of those choices in the next wave, but after they had to cancel the all female Ultimates wave earlier this year it is not likely we'll see an all female wave again.   Also it seems that they are confined to the cartoon and comics so if they ever did a Shooter it would probably be the male version.

I'm not sure what the next wave will be, but I'm sure we'll see a cartoon accurate BAT sooner rather than later.

Also how are the figures themselves in regards to quality and build?   The few reviews I have seen seem to point to a number of small issues.

From the Dragonfly set, I'm looking for:
1. NF Ripcord
2. NF Crazylegs

If anyone wants to sell them.

Got my "confirm your address" email for the Dragonfly!  Should arrive before the end of the year - fingers crossed.

Same here. 

Although I think most backers could see the Dragonfly before December.   Going on what happened before stock usually ships out pretty fast after the deadline to update your shipping address.   Some of the backers could see the Dragonfly before Halloween.   Most could probably see it before December.    In any case most should see it before the end of the year.

I'll say again.. if its cartoon appearance, I'm not super interested...unless they were unreleased figures, then maybe.

Honestly, I would be down for as close-to-reissues as possible of the originals, except update the 82/83 figures with a little more detail. I also would want better plastic for hands and feet so they don't break. Keep it to '83-'88 lineup with a smattering of some later year figures. Trooper builder packs would be great. Vehicles too but I think due to small run it would be too costly for me to buy them....depends on what it is.

Lots of my current figures are becoming too fragile and I'm not interested in just setting them up to stand on a shelf and never be touched.

These toys need to be played with by kids, if that can even be done anymore.

For the current images:
- I just can't get excited about twins in business suits.
- Cover girl looks good. Could use some colour on her face to make her look a little less plain.
-  I'll wait for a better coloured snake eyes and bat (you know there's a repaint coming in vintage colours).
- CC looks excellent and would be my for sure get from this wave. I think I like this better then the original battle helmet version. Would be nice if wave 2 had hooded version (are they doing that anymore?)

If these were $15 CDN I'd try and make a go of it.

I look forward to have the twins in business suits!!! The other figures look nice, but it seems they went for a safe choice. At least no duke (but I like duke, though) in this first wave. I want: Bongo the bear, Dr Venom, Billy, the giant in the episode in the arena, Raven in o-ring, .... SO MANY CHARACTERS!!!  

So some early sightings, with pics, are popping up online for the new ReAction + figures (O-Ring).   

The first wave was found at a couple Target stores in the US.   Have to say I am not quite as enthused as I was when this was announced.  Mostly because it looks like they won't be touching the original figures, but instead sticking to comic/animation based looks or versions that were never done before.   

So while that will be great for characters that have never had a figure before, it also means we likely won't get updates to original figures that Hasbro won't touch with their Transformer x GI Joe line.

Oh and the price was confirmed to be $20.49US (+tax) so I imagine if anywhere carries them up here it will be $25+

Overall I liked the comic "blue" BAT with the alternate head.  I think it is great that both arms can exchange pieces for weapons or hands.   However that version isn't one I will go out of my way to get.   If they do a show accurate version like their Ultimates version then I am down for that.

Cover Girl with long blonde hair is great, and a smart alternate look.   Definitely worth picking up, but they need to do another Wolverine to go with her.

Snake Eyes is not a look I am interested in picking up.   I would have preferred animation accurate colours as the first option.   This one blends too many different looks for my taste.

Cobra Commander looks good, but I am a bit burnt out on CC right now.   Maybe in a couple months I'll be more inclined to consider him.

No sign of the twins yet.

Been away for a few days so a quick catch up.

Pulsecon was another bust for the Joe team.   Not in the product, but like with, I want to say the last Pulsecon when they went last.   They got rushed through and we had to see the new digital renders after the fact on social media.   It was great seeing the next wave, and the guys playing the game (obviously having fun).   However a bit more time, or better flow, to get to everything would have been nice.

I will say it was interesting to hear about the "search for the MASS Device" as the name only reveal.   Popular speculation is that it will be the next store exclusive theme.  Possibly Target since Walmart got NF last time.
