Why O Why did they do this????????????????


Today I got the Heavy Assault Squad six pack. I did not look it over very well until I opened it. I was surprised to see three green shirts with Snake Eyes, Duke and Roadblock???????and surprise surprise not one heavy weapon!!!!!!!!!

I read the back and found that this pack must have been thrown together for sure. The back says that the pack contains Snake Eyes, Duke, Sgt. Mutt, Ace, and two Greenshirts.

So where is Ace and Mutt? I got a Roadblock and another Greenshirt?.what gives?

Where are the heavy weapons????

Did I miss something??? Do tell!!

Do the green shirts even come with their helmets?

Hasbro dropped the ball on this pack and they know it.  They pulled it off the display at the convention due to the negative feedback of it and packaging screw up.

I saw it, and save for the roadblock, there's nothing making it worth having. I was going to put the right figures for the filecards in the package and put it on ebay as a "packaging error". :lol:

I put it down and picked up another greenshirt pack instead.

I do love the CSG's though. In berets with real weapons, they look fantastic. Now I just have to cast more berets.

I am going to cast BBI removable berets for the Nightwatch. I am amking them my Cobra special forces guys.

This project won't happen any time soon as I had a flood in my basement. , and I am also waiting for Marauder to release MP5's to equip them.
