Thanks to Nitro-B.A.T we have some great pics of the upcoming Retaliation figures.

Multi-Packs...









Singles...

I'm looking forward to some of these. That firefly in the three pack may be the best modern tooling firefly yet. And mouse as a new character looks interesting. And a new flint. I'm really looking forward to the night viper. Jinx and Colton may be nice too.

In-Hand and opened:

3-pack Firefly is awesome: http://thetoyverse.com/?p=6504

Single Carded: http://thetoyverse.com/?p=6719

Airborne: http://thetoyverse.com/?p=6803


Have the Storm Shadow and Flint (unopened), just never bothered to take pictures of 'em.

Here's to hoping that when the Retaliation line is relaunched, they start with Wave 2 and not Wave 1.

I plan on four of the Tactical Ninja sets: The Airbornes will be 25th Airborne's assault team. The Snake Eyes will get headswapped and become Arashikage Ninja seduced to join Serpentor's faction. The Mice will get headswapped as well for different GIJOE troopers.

Just one of the Firefly 3-pack, though.

Single card Firefly will become Python Firefly.

Still unsure how I'll use that Storm Shadow...

I WISH that Firefly lit up like that.

The light from the sled just isn't strong enough to get up into the arms. It's only the handles that transfer and they're pretty small.

May be the best? MAY!?! No IS the best!!!

I recently got an Invasion trooper and 3 pack Snake Eyes. My invasion trooper was missing his helmet, so I had to use a shock trooper helmet in a few of the pictures. There is a good chance that they are identical though.



The entire body is a repaint of the Shock trooper and he has the same great articulation as the shock Trooper.



He comes with a parachute, parachute web gear, Shock trooper web gear with no cobra symbol on the front, the radio that attaches to the back of the web gear, a more lightly tinted goggles and mask, all flat black versions of the taser pistol and smg, a gun that I think we've seen before (but I can't place right now), and he should have a helmet.
I took pictures next to the similar ones from the Shock Trooper.



Parachute Troopers




The only knocks I have on this figure are that he could have had another paint app or two to highlight some of the features of the sculpt and I wish that he had a stand.
He makes a great Shock trooper officer.


The 3 pack Snake Eyes is an all black version of the PoC ultimate Snakes Eyes with the v2 head. He has green and gold web gear that was originally intended for the cancelled PoC Stormshadow.
