Re: New joe 7 packs coming!! WOOHOO Mindbender!!
Had a major Joe haul last week. Got the two Cobra Island sets, as well as the desert Extreme Conditions set, Ghost Hawk, and artic HISS. Quite pleased with them all
. One of my favorite things about 25th style joes is when a character you never really noticed or cared about before, suddenly becomes one of your favorite guys, just because of how well done the new figure is. This has happened to me several times, and these Cobra Island sets, in particular, are no different. So, not only do I get much anticipated old favorites like Chuckles and Dr. Minbender, but I also get aquainted with some new favorites like Zap, Outback, Lamprey, and Range-Viper.
The only disappointment here is Ripcor... er, SPC Altitude. His helmet is too big, and can slide down over his face, like a spaceball. Also, the hose from his mask has nowhere to plug into. But these are minor things; he is by no means terrible. He's just not up to the same excellent standard of some of these other figures.
