Movie Shipwreck looks great. I'm pretty excited for that figure. HOH stuff looks as underwhelming here as it does elsewhere...

Thunder will be good for anyone looking for his character. Note that he's a full repaint of Resolute Duke.

The drill thing looks whatever.

The Mole Pod comes with a black Croc-Master?

First black Ripcord, and now this? Man, I see some reeeeeally teed off fans over this. Frankly, I think it's fun and funny.

That drill pod is made of so much :awesome:

. it is most definatly a fleet vehicle.

Drill pod is cool, Terra viper is lame.

Shipwreck looks pretty good though, and I can't wait to get Thunder.

Shipwreck looks cool. A bit of the Devils Due look, mixed with some new elements, while still having a look that instantly says Shipwreck. Not too crazy about the over sized launcher, but the rest of gear looks really nice as well so a big win figure.

I know I'm weird, but I sort of like the Terra Viper. Not really much as whatever a Terra Viper is but he looks like he would make a really good diver class trooper for Cobra. I mean the new Shipwreck is going to need some dirty bilge rats to beat up.

The Mole Pod is the Pit Viper from Sunbow Season 1 episode "The Pit of Vipers."

It's in the movie, the full size prop was at last years SDCC, among other places.

Dunno if I'll get the Mole Pod, have to see it in person. At least they swapped in Serpentor arms on Croc-Master to reduce his individuality slightly. The Armadillo is neat, but I'm pretty much buying it for Thunder. Nice to know that they're willing to include arguably ARAH versions of characters in the movie line. Shipwreck is very Sigma Six looking in the torso, which is a good thing as far as I'm concerned. Accessories are hit and miss, but I can see some parts potential in the figure, which is all I'm really looking for out of the movie line.

Mole Pod?

My unending optimism prohibits me from commenting on mole pods.

No, wait.

WTF is a Mole Pod. I mean hey, I'm as liberal about the future tech as anyone. I'm not complaining that Shipwreck comes with a giant techno toothpick flinger. I even like the suits.

But a MOLE POD? Were the Buzz Boars misfiled in storage (perhaps under L for Lamest toy ever??

No... No.. I'm maintaining optimism, staying the course...

Shipwreck is impressive. Shockingly so. I actually really like that figure. I like that sort of representation much more than the bell bottom sailor one.

Thunder is as cool as he was when we first saw the prototype with two left hands months ago.

I like the Mole Pod. I don't know why.

After seeing Thunder I'm glad i waited on picking up the Armidillo.
Never picked up the first 25th Flint so I'll probly end up getting this one.

The rest look good, but too many repaints for my taste. Also Between the shippy and the reportedly leaked breaker pics, Just not sure the black suit look works for me.

With the drill pod I'm undecided, but at least Hasbro didn't make a reworked buzz boar instead.

Shipwreck is awesome. Anyone else think it's funny that the Terra Viper in really just Croc Master, but in black. I wonder who else will make it to a movie version by being a black repaint.

That Shipwreck is the most exciting thing I've seen in the movie line so far. I'm glad Hasbro is doing what they did with the Transformers figures and offering up more characters in what they might look like in the movie. Given the camo pants and the Devil's Due-inspired head, I'm more excited about the Hasbro-designed movie figures than the ones based on actor's likenesses (especially given the likenesses we've seen so far).

Sure beats getting a dozen versions of the small cast of characters from the movie.

Agreed. That Shipwreck is fantastic. I don't have high hopes for the mole pod but might snag one out of my weakness for cheesy toys.

[Waves jedi hand] Raptor, you will succumb to the powers of the H8RS!

"Armored Panther?"

Wasn't that Brian Fantana's choice of cologne from 'Ron Burgundy?"
