Picked up Mainframe and Wetsuit yesterday.  And the material these figures are made from feels significantly different than previous figures.  I know some of the weapons in the past have had a gummy flex to them, but these figures feel similar.  Especially Wetsuit,  wondering if it is just the ones I got, maybe an "off" batch. Mainframe won't hold his hand held device, and wetsuit has a difficult time holding the flashlight.  Wetsuits gun holster is rubbery, and the gun doesn't stay properly.   Strangly enough I feel the accessories are of better plastic.

On the other extreme of rigid plastic, I also grabbed a Snow Serpent from Amazon, for $24.

Three carded figures look great, but what is up with Crazy Legs screaming face.

SNAKE armour arrived yesterday.  I am impressed, details are excellent and the size is more than impressive.  Just wish the detachable hands and claws had articulation.

Finally have Dial-Tone!  Also was able to acquire Hawk with MMS, and the Slaughter, Mercer two pack.  So far I have only opened Diat-Tone.

Steeler and ShortFuse went up for pre-order on pulse and almost instantly sold out.  Once again, the exclusives and limited release is making it difficult to stick with Classified.  DialTone, I am looking at you!

I did even though I don't have space for it. 
The last couple of days mirrored the first days of this haslab in terms of numbers- I haven't paid attention before but is that normal?  Also this is the 4th Classified Haslab that fully funded all tiers.  Has any other Hasbro property had that success?  Maybe Transformers?

I also broke down and purchased the snake eyes/polar bear set, even though I initially wasn't going to purchase them or the diver 2pack.  Now I am thinking the only element I don't have is the heavy water....hmmm.

It funded a couple of days ago, I really hope it makes the stretch goals, but either way I am in for the Snow Cat. I wish they had gone in the direction of figures like they did the the Dragonfly - new characters (RipCord/CrazyLegs) that are not in their mass release uniform.  Hell another Snow Job, or Artic Steel Brigade/Green Shirt would have been better.
My Rattler showed up last week, and is still sitting in its box.  I have a pile of un-opened Joes, no time to give them the time they deserve.

I got my pre-order in with Amazon, if this is like ALL of my other Amazon pre-orders, ship date will come and go, and then I will get an email telling my that my order has been Cancelled.

less than 10 minutes after it goes up for Amazon, it is sold out.

I absolutely hate exclusives.
