3 pack Firefly is good but I'll hold out for the single pack version that is coming with the mini HISS drone.


The single pack one is movie-styled, though.

Only figures I don't want are the Storm Shadows. Wish they would have just re-released Renegades Stormy under Retaliation packaging instead for one of them.


If you can get a DG Storm Shadow, you've pretty much got the Renegades version. You just wouldn't have the head sculpts or accessories.

Yeah. "Ultimate Firefly" uses the PP Storm Shadow torso instead of the new one that 3-pack Firefly uses.

Same thing applies to either Retaliation Red Ninjas. Although they have the Renegades chest accessories.

The figure is also being reused for a black ninja in a later wave of Retaliation.

You're lucky.

I'll probably have to wait an eternity for Pocket Stuart Smith.

..for all of my b*******g about the modern era / 25th style joes & my not buying them i have to give Hasbro credit for Agent Mouse. Between the plain "building attendant" look of the figure , the cool yet oddly colored weapons, metallic blue highlights on a futuristic vest and neon orange something or other accessories Agent Mouse is everything i have hated and loved about Joe over the years (especially the early to mid 90's).

Which means he is absolutely perfect and should attract kids lol. He actually made me think Hasbro is trying to return the "fun" in their action figures with Mouse and the Retaliation Trooper (which i like).

Roadblock looks VERY accurate. A tempting potential purchase. Airborne ...i dont care what his name is. That dude is a henchmen / bank robber / terrorist. Excellent head sculpt.

While the facial expression would not be as intense, maybe PoC Dusty's head sculpt might serve as a stand -in with the addition of the Hard Master's headband...

"Not be as intense" would be an understatement. POC Dusty looks sad!

And sadly, Hard Master's headband doesn't fit most figures, especially more recent ones, because it's so small...

Seems like you should be able to dip the headband in hot water and then slide it over a piece of dowel.

Better yet, a /\ type shape...

This does work. I've done it.
