I just got mine today and I want to say that these are WOW. The interesting one is the Arctic Viper...well one of them. He is built on the Copperhead body. He has short sleeves..he looks like a bad ass. I have always wanted a big muscle bound Viper and I have one.

Mine should be here Monday. Can't wait to play with the Snow Serpents and put the articulated arm from my custom Major Bludd on the "desert" figure.

Mine should be getting here soon to GoodStuffToGo.net sent me my shipping notice today.
I may give up that LMG Viper & Scrap Iron. I will probably also give up the Snow Serpent Commander but switch out his gear with the bazooka one so I can have another regular Snow Serpent.

I'm so excited for mine to get here. I ordered them from BBTS. I just had to wait till wave ten to come in and they shipped "my pile of loot." I'm glad to hear that these sets are as good as they look. And for the price per figure, it can't be beat, it seems. Sadly, mine are still in the warehouse according to their site, so I probably won't get them till the end of next week, but when that happens, it's going to be like Christmas.

I am really enjoying these packs...They have no code names...they are all generic. (except of course Major Blud and Scrap Iron) I think the idea of having a bad ass elite team is great. Now i have to figure on naming these guys.
My other favorite character is the Chemical Weapons guy. The Ideas that could come from that

Overall I have not purchased many of the 25th style figures due to my limited funds as well as my preference for ARAH. The winter pack however is on my must buy list. When I saw the pictures of those sets I was hooked.

Just got mine in today. Love the arctic pack. I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned that the Snow Serpent Commander is colored the same way as the Flaming Moth Snow Serpent(minus the camo splotches). But I'm kind of curious as to why Scrap Iron seems to only have one good eye.

I love these, and really can't decide which is better.

The weapons provided are pretty great. Some of the Snow Serpents are holding some odd choices in the package (one has Armored CC's gun, one has a shotgun, for instance) but they come with enough weapons to equip all the Snow Serpents with their "official" gear.

I love the kitbashes in the desert set. What a great way to diversify the Cobra ranks.

Both of these sets make me want to set up environment specific dioramas. I just think they're such a well executed concept.

The GvC Snow Serpents came with armored CC's gun, didn't they?

Yeah, I actually love that little touch. A sort of homage to the "Snow Wolf" (who was the Snow Serpent leader, like this guy is the "Officer") and also the colored fur collar and face mask to match the Collectors' Club Snow Serpent Commander as well. It kind of blends them all together nicely.

The only figures I don't really care for are the desert CGs. Although, I prefer the desert pack over the winter pack. I rearmed that one Snow Serpent with his original gear as well and gave the law/ordinance/shotgun to what I now refer to as my heavy weapons Viper. He looks pretty good all geared up since he's got a bigger frame.

These packs are awesome. I actually haven't opene them yet, but that's more so because I don't have that much space in my apartment, so I'd rather wait till Thanksgiving break and bring them home with me and open them. Just by looking, I can tell the heavy weapons Viper is my favorite out of the fourteen.

Not too fond of the CGs though. They aren't very crimson. Haha.

These are easily the coolest multi-packs we've had all year. I had eagerly been waiting for these and they finally arrived from BBTS yesterday. From the pics, I thought that the arctic one was better, but with them in hand, I find that the desert one is cooler. It has more figs I want to keep as they are.

I've already taken apart Scrap-Iron, Artic Heavy weapons viper and the tele-viper for customs I'm working on. I head-swapped some of the desert figs into more logical (for me) configurations.

I did the same thing with my sets of those three guys. The air trooper helmet just works better on the flame thrower dude. And the Viper helmet on the Viper body is a no-brainer.

And I disagree on the CGs. I think they look great. The desert color scheme works very well for me. I like it so much I'm going to armybuild this guy. I don't know what it is but it just works.

The arctic set though I've done nothing with. They are just right out of the box.

Now I just need to figure out what Marauder weapons to arm them all with.
