The big helmet is kind of goofy, but the figure looks great - love the use of the (i might be wrong) general flagg torso.

Nice mold, still gotta get rid of that stupid grey color. The helmet and head aren't wowing me though.

nah, that's WORMS entire body with a substitute Gnawgahyde head.  The helmet and the figure both look amazing.  I love it.

this set rocks through and through.  It'll be the first MC set I have the money to order and I'm dying to get it.  great job by the club on this one IMO!

Unless they show up on ebay, those won't be shown until the day of the convention.  Brian Savage wasn't amuzed last year when those Zartan/Hawk figures showed up on ebay and honestly ruined the hype around them.  This yeat might be different as no pictures have leaked so far.

As for Mayhem, millon dollar body, 10 cent head. Gnawgahyde's head is a WTF for me.  You can't use that head to replace the head for Crusher last year as the skin tone doesn't match.  But the set is very good none the less. Better than most Hasbro released items the past few years.

That is a good comparison actually Pete...this set is alot better than any set Hasbro has done...ever...!!!

I like it overall...but one thing I see all these guys doing is using such a limited selection of joe parts. We see so many weapons and so on being used over and over. I know some parts from different bodies do not work but you would figure that with 400 or so different joes to chose from they would not really every have to use the same mold, or  color scheme, or weapons more than once...!!!
