It's Python Patrol Copperhead without the hideous snake scales.

Matt Trakker Rules!!!!!!! Eat it Sputnik! But why does he have a helicopter backpack?


It's an Anihilator backpack dummy. Lets guess how they reuse it.

The card art also shows him with Anihlators gun


Well we are still waiting for them to remake :shockwave: Shockwave with comic FF vest.
That is Python Patrol Copperhead with the Moccassin? He is quite differently colored. :copperhead2:
:liftticket: Lift-Ticket & Skyhawk were on the Walmart list. I love the cockpit glass on the Skyhawk!
:airborne: AWESOME! :-D
Pilot Scarlett is also awesome! That looks like a new head! Does she still have her ponytail?
:wildbill: Wild Bill in cartoon colors HOORAY! vs :scrapiron: Scrap Iron with all his gear & removable goggles!
:beachhead: Beachhead in cartoon colors! Wow! Who wants my carded version?
Snake Eyes and Hardmaster cool! Is that how he looks in the vintage comics? Or is this a new uniform?

Yeah. That COBRA Commander will be mine. No doubt in my mind.

Which one?
Snake-Eyes wore a gray gi in some flashbacks at the Arashikage Compound... it is very close to Storm Shadow, enough that this figure is a good representation.

But the Hard Master is not based on the old comics... he's a red repaint of Snake-Eyes v3, which is how he'll appear in the comic included.

One of the things I'm not particularly fond about with Larry writing new comics... Hasbro's able to cheap-out their repaints, and it won't clash with the designs in the book since the book is newly tailored to include the figures.

I'd much rather get a reprint of Issue #26, with a proper Hard Master. This thing does not look good, IMO. It's a new head mold, at least.

Getting a strong funskool windmill vibe off of mr tracker there.

Is slipstream pregant Dear god what a gut.

Hard master looks awesome though.

Vehicles EH not feeling too many the Moccasion is kind of cool but looks like they packed a P patrol Copperhead there, kind of odd.

Mainfraime and BH pack, that Mainframe is just wayyy off. Just looks like a mesh of parts from differnent lines in that non of it matches. Since BH isn't really different I can pass this.

One of the highlights is Flint in Cobra disguse though. I dig him.

Also Nice to see Zartan in V1 schemas well , not sure if I will get him but still nice to see.

Some interesting stuff but not great either. Not nessasarly disapointed but not excited either.

Some really cool stuff. Airbourne and EEL are great. The name Dataframe is HORRIBLE!! Just give us the standard rename of Sgt. Mainframe or something.

The Copperhead PP looks lame too. A way better option and nod to collectors would have been a variant on the previous CP Copperhead with no light details, just all dark green like the ARAH variant.

Mostly great stuff, just a few minor details are disappointing and could have been easily changed.

Well at least Carn will be able to get ahold of a few Water Moccassins now for his Tiger Force work. :whistling:
I love the Eel so I'll probably be army building a few of those.

Copperhead has better hands, it seems. Again, like TF Flint, we're getting a better version of the figure in a team-specific repaint.

I want those hands for my regular Copperhead, damnit!

MATT TRAKKER IS A MUST HAVE! Even though I'm not collecting the 25th-style figures, this is too cool a tribute to a line I sort of wish I'd been able to collect the first time around NOT to get it.

Pilot Scarlett -- nice nod to Glenda, but I'd rather try to get the original someday, if it weren't for the fact that the original doesn't have swivel arms.

I like the Sky Hawk with WINDOWS. That always bugged me.

Copperhead -- just doesn't look quite right. But they put him in his original colors in that two-pack, so I guess they had to do something.

I like the Matt Tracker fig. Hisstank updated with a full pic of his card back and I like the MASK logo in the corner of the card.

Yeah, they had to spell out MASK's full name, but that's still VERY cool to see the logo there!

Pilot Scarlett is pretty badass. And kudos to Hasbro for making me actually want another Skyhawk. Dig the folding legs on Mainframe's computer, and the funky hockey mask head and sword stand make the weird ass Hard Master worth buying. Probably get rid of the FANG Pilot Vipers, but that Trooper with the red arm stripes really appeals to me for some reason. I like my custom Lift-Ticket better, but better pics may change my mind. Any idea whose legs those are on him? Bet we see Airborne repainted as Crazylegs. The Eel is great, and while I've always hated belly-shirt Zartan, I'll get a few for parts. Sucks he uses the Gung-Ho torso though. A new Water Moccasin is great, and I love me some v1 Beachhead. Toon Wild Bill is lame IMO, but I like Scrap Iron. More great stuff, and I'm honestly surprised we saw as much as we did. Now if we can just get a single carded Tele-Viper and Iron Grenadier before the movie stuff takes over, I'll be happy.

and like wave 9 *which better be hitting hard after stores finish their %(&#$ aisle resets (why is target doing this in july and not august?!?)* it'd be nice to find these, i'm thinking of nothing but the comic packs that have been overproduced and seeing constant mighty muggs/galactic hero figures wasting space that could go to figures instead. someone at hasbro is about to learn a hard lesson about trying to make each line fit into a new/different product instead of being good at what it is... :whistling:

[quote]

long long ago, they released four mask adventure packs. if memory serves, one of them had Trakker with a helicopter backpack.
