Just saw this over at CTR, and hadn't seen it listed here yet: http://www.cooltoyreview.com/story/front/Hasbro_GI_Joe_Rise_Of_Cobra_Case_Assortments_121791.asp Anyone know what the difference between character figures and action figures is? |

Only in Japan. Also you forgot the 1x God Ginrai vs. Destro and 1x Super God Ginrai vs. The Leader Now if only I can remember which character God Ginrai is. Is that another optimus, rodimus, or the red white & blue guy? |

Ha ha, and here we were worried about change but with all those Duke and Snake Eyes figures it doesn't seem like anything has changed. |

Sweet! Destro in one of the first cases. Although I am bummed at the some of the other breakdowns. Look at the typical Hasbro genius in Wave 2 - singles of Scarlett and Shipwreck, but multiples of Breaker. Can anyone say scalper fodder while Breaker heads for Mutt-dom? |

I guess Hasbro's hoping that the movie will make people want Heavy Duty and Breaker, that Scarlett is a girl and won't sell and that Shipwreck's not in the movie so he won't be very popular. We'll see. It's interesting that there are so many figures that haven't been shown in the first wave. We haven't seen the character figures at all (we don't know what the difference between these and action figures are). Weird. I'm interested in a good camo Duke, Destro, Snake Eyes and Shipwreck. Other than that, the first wave is a bust for me. I'm waiting for Wave 2, where Scarlett, arctic Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow all look great. |

However, I worry about the initial scalper interest which means hunting for a few months until the stores and Hasbro catch up. Then again, I've cut back on my attempts to buy stuff as soon as its out, so maybe not a big deal. |

I've only seen on pilot scarlet on the shelves around here, granted i didn't look insanely hard as I didn't want her. Not because she is a female, but because i'm not a fan of who she was a nod to, and i think the gloves and gear combo just look odd. |

Very true, but besides Lady Jaye and Daina, I don't care about any of the female characters/figures. This is one of the few figures that is on the pegs from the last three or four waves and I can see why. I really don't think females do sell that well. That and Cobra Flint, which is a figure no one cares about at all, including myself. |
