Post subject:  "New" Joes at Dollar General

Just got back but I didn't buy anything. What I saw was a fresh wave of repaint, rehash JvC VvV figures. All but 1 anyhow. 1 of these was an ARAH style Beach Head with a new paintjob. The paint job was interesting but I didnt grab him. http://www.yojoe.com/action/04/beachhead6.shtml

Besides this 1 figure the rest seem to be Single Card Wave 3 packs, with 2 Major differences. http://www.yojoe.com/action/05/(Near the bottom left you'll see the wave 3 singles)

There was a few 'newer' ones that I havent seen DG packed.

http://www.yojoe.com/action/05/slash.shtml
http://www.yojoe.com/action/05/slice6.shtml
http://www.yojoe.com/action/05/blackdragonninja2.shtml

1. The price has gone up.. Unlike last year when the single pack Joes were 2 bucks, this year its 3.00. You might think this isn't that big of a deal. but wait.. Theres more.

2. NONE of these figures have ANY gear or accessories. Nope, not a single gun, sword, backpack etc. What good is a Televiper if he doesnt even have his headset mic?

Anyhow If I deside any of these heads or worth the time, I may snag one up here or there for extra custom fodder. But over all this is a massive phail. :grumble: - cheap bastards with no accessories

Did they have a Viper? It was on the list of ones that were to be released but I haven't seen an image of it online. If they did, what figure was it?

http://toynewsi.com/news.php?catid=9&itemid=13155 there's the list from TNI. No plain Vipers listed at all. Just Sand Viper, and Tele Viper, and no snow troops either Narc.

I didn't see any Vipers or Arctic troopers, just Frostbite..

oh yeah and slice and slash have the same card backing... both are called Slice with the white slice figure on the cards.

Found these today, picked up two black dragon ninjas, a slice, and a frostbite for fodder. I amy pick up some more black dragons later, but I thought I would give others a shot at them
Wnet next door and grabbed 3xbaroness from the family dollar for $2 each, adn she came with accesories!
The no accesories is somewhat annoying.
