Yeah that's the 86 Hawk. Not bad. At least he's got a fixed Crotch.Not sure about his collar though.
Snow Serpent looks really interesting. I'm not sure about the sculpted fur though.

Seeing large pics, none of these really thrill me, something's wrong on pretty much all of them. Really, really don't like Hawk's face. Let us remove it, yes? :taurus: Bet he's blonde too. :roll:

That's a good thing in my book. '86 toy be damned, Hawk is blonde!!

I'm gonna say Barbeque doesn't have a removeable helmet as it just looks too small.



Agreed that would be the case with a fully removable helmet. Makes me curious if they just did the facemask removable.

Hawk - That collar and raised part of the jacket really looks wrong on this figure. I like what they tried to do but it just isn't working. Besides that this figure isn't bad.

Bazooka - He's alright. Nothing above what I expected. What is exciting about him is what is possible now with this body type. Could the Fridge or Outback be that far behind with this tooling?

Barbecue - Love it. I wonder if his tiny walkie talkie is removable like Storm Shadows dagger.

B.A.T. - Perfection. I have a new desktop.

Snow Serpent - Looks good but in that pose it is hard to tell what is sculpted on and what is an added on layer. I'm on the fnece. He looks pretty but will he have all the articulation as the original?

Storm Shadow- Cool nod to the fans. Another good repaint. Skin color is easy enough to fix in a dye bath too.

I'm gonna have to pre-order this wave, because I need all of these figures.

Hope Hasbro puts out another B.A.T. Attack 6-pack,'cuz I've been waiting to army-build these mechanical mofos. Blue Shirts are nice and everything, but B.A.T.s are bad-ass. :-D

Hawk: I agree with Pluv that Hawk's collar doesn't look right. It and the shoulder boards appear to hover. I don't think they should have made a new head, either. Grand Slam and Grunt can't even get an original head and now Hawk will have two! The first 25A Hawk is very good, but it's too milky. If it had been painted in a flesh tone everyone would appreciate it more.

Snow Serpent and BAT: Both look great

Bazooka and BBQ: Very well done, but I don't like the colors. Of course, I didn't like the colors on the original figures, so why would I like them now? Bazooka would be an easy figure to please those of us that don't think a special forces guy would be running around in a red sports jersey. Include some kind of poncho (reused from an Endoor figure) and I'd be happy.

Storm Shadow: Why can't they just make a new head and a darker flesh tone and let it be Ninja-Ku? Idiots.

Great! just great!

Probably my favorite as a set save for the first two 5 packs.

The black stormshadow is good looking, but Storm Shadow in black just isn't sitting well...

other are 100% perfect!

I for one think spreading the Original 13 out and making sure later figures that are popular with different fans, like Barbecue and Bazooka, is the way to go.

Now I want to see pictures of those wal mart joes mentioned in another thread.
