I only wish they'd have given him an uncovered head, but other than that he is one of the best figures in a long time. He seems really tall too compared to Flash, but especially compared to his v1 counterpart.

Wow, that is a figure that is MADE by its accessories. Without all of its gear, hideous. With gear, super awesome.

Airtight and Law and Order are up now too.

Airtight is alright. My opinion hasn't really changed about him since seeing the first pics of him.

Law & Order on the other hand is just all kinds of awesome. Good figure base with all kinds if cool accessories.

Great. They take two characters I couldn't be bothered to care about and make awesome toys out of them. Now I have to buy them.

THANKS HASBRO! :-D

Law is so freakin' awesome!!
With Duke, they'll make a pretty cool duo of Spec Ops.

I hope that we get two of each of these figures in the case assortment, because I want at least two of each! The figures just look fantastic as is, and I've already got ideas for customs using Airtight and Law parts.

Man, if you had shown me the picture with Airtight's head and said "guess what scale this is" I would have thought it was 6 inch, for sure. And Law's head is just as good! Some fantastic looking figures right here.

I love Airtight. I've always loved Airtight. This new Airtight makes me want to take that love to a whole new level. The Sci Fi is great BECAUSE they didn't puss out in his colors, but Airtight takes all the other offerings in a double fisted embrace.

Law is nice. Good head sculpt. Order, as always, makes me sleepy. I just don't care for animals on this scale.

503 errors...JC crashing the site :D

New Airtight looks 99.5% of what I'd hoped for. Only thing missing/needed is an alternate head to match the cartoon w/ widow's peak.

Is Law's vest a close/possible retool of the one that came with the Cobra Shock Trooper or Pit Commando?

Need a "like" button on this, hehe. Although I like the whole Law and Order figure and dog. The only thing I don't like with the dog is it would be cool if they figured out a way to add articulation to animals without it looking stupid.

I'm really stoked about getting these. I just wish Law had his original legs. I think they went a bit better that the SE54/Duke combo legs.
But I'm still using it as the basis for my hopeful MW2 Spec Ops customs.

Why Hasbro? WHY?? Law was my most anticipated figure of this wave. Now they go and give him Duke's legs, essentially making him a straight up repaint. I HATE spending money on toys I already have, it feels like such a rip off! Why did you have to switch out his original legs that had those cool over-sized knee-pads? Now he shares pants with Snake Eyes, Stalker, Duke, Steel Brigade. Heck, if I want one body type for half my troops, I may as well start buying Corps figures.

My other major gripe is they took away that cool masked head he was originally shown with. I was going to use him as a new character, since I don't need another Law, and that alternate head looked badass. (I see they also took away the flashlight and radio, but that is not such a big deal.) Way to go Hasbro, take a kick-ass, winning figure, and make him more bland and boring. Bah, humbug! :-x

P.S. That oversized badge... looks like something he found in a box of cereal!

As for Airtight, he looks great, but I have no interest in exact copies of the old figures, so I am passing.

Isn't it obvious? They did it just to piss you off.

This. It's clear that they have an agenda against psychoviper. They read every tear filled missive he writes about not being able to "properly shoulder a rifle", and they think up ways how they can make his life even worse, and to see what he'll waste his time crying about next.

Well done, Hasbro. Another home run.
