I needed to show my friend these, and saw you cats still haven't got a thread about them (Or if you've even seen them yet)

Anyways here's a link to them (stolen from HISSTank yet again hosted by me look at my other stuff too!)

I much prefer the 25th IGs to these guys, but they do look like they'll make great fodder. And the little cardboard dio looks pretty cool.

I think those look pretty damn cool. I don't know if i will use them for their intended purpose but I will find a home for them in my collection and they will serve Cobra or Destro in some capacity. I very well may use them for some type of Iron Grenadier trooper (which they may already be). Maybe some type of Headhunter trooper. Nice to start seeing movie related toys.

moooobs.

They look ok, more "real world" compared to the IG's, but IG's will always rule.

While they are kinda cool (and WAY better than expected), they just look like generic sci-fi villains.

...Not bad if you need 25th-style bad guys, but there's nothing about them that makes me think COBRA/GI Joe, which I guess isn't a good thing, since they're Joe movie toys and all. :shifty:

Still, they might make good custom fodder or random dio filler.

Thanks for the pics, Roland.

Beachhead works for Destro? I kid. I think these actually look pretty cool, and if they can pull the look off in the movie, maybe it'll be a bit more fun than we initially expected.

These look like very nice figures and I wouldn't mind owning them at all. I'd like to skip the movie toys for space reasons, but I can see myself getting these. I must be choosy as there will be an absolute glut of movie toys.

M.A.R.S. Soldiers.

Those things are nice. Hopefully, a sign of thins to come. Looks like two troops and a leader of some sort (Officer or NCO.) I see a three pack coming our way!

I'm digging these figures. I've largely avoided putting much effort into getting the 25A IGs, so maybe I'll use them for Destro's forces instead. Or, I might use them as a different faction altogether.

I guess this puts a big damper on my hopes that the movie toys would suck and would therefore give my bank account a break (much like the Transformer movie toys gave me a break). Oh well ....

well, crap, now I want movie figures.

I was hoping to just coast buy these(get it, ok, that was terrible) and only get the females, but oh well, off to the pegs, it would seem.

Its hilarious that you got these from "the site which shall not be named" and hosted them up. I guess with their website's name, they aren't going to go crying unfair infringement, lol.
