Set includes one each of Destro & Iron Grenadier, Cobra Commander Vs. Tripwire and Lieutenant Falcon Vs. Nemesis Enforcer.

You can pre-order these now at BigBadToyStore.com.

sorry if I missed a thread with this already, but I didn't see it, so here goes.
I am pumped about Falcon and Iron Grenadier...

no pics yet...

Didn't BBTS already have the pre-order for Comic pack wave 5? I pre-ordered one anyway, I assume we are talking about the same thing. This is in my confirmation e-mail from them.

any friggin' time Hasbro or GIJoeclub.com wants to release some pictures of these sets already would be a good time!

c'mon, hurry up!

Didn't the preorder go down after Toy Fair?

I don't think BBTS has any special knowledge about the validity of these releases, but they did come from the Wal-Mart computer that's been pretty accurate so far.

I'd imagine we'll hear something about them soon.

I'm more excited about the wave after this one (this is all conjecture) which includes Mainframe. I really want a 25th Mainframe.

I'm also pretty heavily anticipating the next wave of singles. BBQ, Bazooka and the BAT will hopefully be in that reveal.

you would be right...I am wrong. I just checked my preorders...5th Anniversary - Comic 2-Packs Wave 5 Case of 8
Product #: HAS14967 yep...ordered them.

May looks like the release.

I have so many preorders, I can't keep up.

I have to admit, even I'm curious about Nemesis Enforcer here. I'm stunned that Hasbro is bring in anything from Cobra-La, but the two-pack with Lt. Falcon would make sense from a movie standpoint, and let's face it, the original Nemesis Enforcer figure, traditional-style or not, didn't really stack up very well compared to his cinematic counterpart.

that's an understatement and a half. The original figure is garbage compared to the NE we saw in the movie. The height is all wrong, the proportions are ridiculous (he's stubby), even the wings were lame.

I don't care what the new version looks like, as long as it's better than that old fashion, piddly figure from 1987. If it wowed me, I'd be a giddy-happy collector but I'm not looking for a miracle here, I just want to see the character done better this time... anything is an improvement.
