Not sure I'm going to get Ripper if he doesn't match up with Buzzer (or if Hasbro plans on fixing this for the inevitable retro card release).

Maybe Buzzer gets sunburns easily, so he uses really high SPF sunblock. That Australian sun is no joke...

Buzzer is actually English while Ripper is from Tasmania. I think that could be viable explanation for the difference in skin tones.

Might be something Lenny was looking at.

Speaking of Buzzer.

As I await his arrival from Amazon I'm in the process of making him a welcome home present. He is getting new glasses too.

Ripper was the star of this wave, for me. Buzzer was a bit disappointing? but man, Ripper is nice. Didn?t really notice a different skin tone until it was pointed out here. Not sure why it would be an issue. all shapes and colours and all that

Man.


I know some people have grown to love the plastic free boxes and the art all over the front.


However those shots, especially of Big Boa, really remind me how much I love the Classified packaging with the plastic window. Now I can see the figure again without wondering if it is the correct figure, or are there any major defects I can't see until I open the package.


Also I can't wait for Big Boa and Raptor so I can make my mini Cobra team of "weirdos" (Croc Master, Big Boa and Raptor).

Crystal Ball is the ultimate weirdo

Well, I went and got a TF Duke from TRU. I don't care for the vehicle or figure at all, but the price was too good to pass up. Used it and swapped some parts so now I have this.
I'm just using him as my non-TF version of the Brazillian Tiger Force Dusty (Felino). Just cause I can't think of who else to call this guy.


Didn't like the Cobra Ninjas with their whited out eyes so did this with my Blue Ninja.
