@mrboshek that set is a let down. I'm not sure I'm gonna go after it.
Just a tip to you for the sanity of people reading the thread - unless you are replying immediately underneath a post the "quote" function is a much better choice than "reply". This message from you above is on a new page with no context and anyone would have to go back a page or more to find out what you're even referring to. I still don't know what set you're talking about.
You had one reply on the last page that I had to go back multiple pages to figure out what you were responding to. Unless your aim is to be doing private messages in public - then I guess this works for that. Just a tip in case you don't want people to start ignoring what you post.
BBTS is sending "Processing Soon" emails for Buzzer. Hopefully Ripper won't be far behind. I've been hoping for the Dreadnoks since this line was announced. Let's go!
Buzzer was among the very first Joes I owned. I have mine POed at Pulse, but I'm still super eager to get him, or at least live vicariously through those who get him early. Ripper was the one original Dreadnok I didn't have. I got Torch and Monkeywrench after Buzzer, so I hope it's not long for their announcement.
That seems awfully fast for a pre-order from like... a week ago?
If I remember correct BBTS got in the BATs and Alley Vipers very quick after the preorder launched. I got my couple BATs from them pretty quick. Back then I ordered BATs from all the big etailers. I was so giddy when those got announced.
How they got them quick? I haven’t a clue.
Thwipp!
We can certainly assume Roadblock and Tripwire are on the way
I know there's precedence for a Tiger Force Tripwire, but Classified Tripwire is a deluxe figure. Will Hasbro/Target have faith in Tiger Force Tripwire at deluxe pricing as well? Hasbro would certainly like to make some more use of the Tripwire figure. If he does come out, he'll certainly end up being marked down.
All that extra with Tripwire is nice but I could live without it on a TF version.

Fair, but I feel like they are putting a heavy focus on characters with possible reuses, frankly I don't think he would have gotten Tripwire at all at this time if it wasn't for the possibility of a TF version.
Yeah... I see no reason why the Tiger Force version of a figure would necessarily have to be packed with all the gear and extras that the regular Deluxe version was. Repaint it, grab a couple of accessories and slap it in a TF box.
I want my Listen N Fun Tripwire, damn it.

I'd buy it.

This was the only recent wave I didn't preorder at BBTS because I thought I needed to calm down with all the doubles. I think out of all the latest figures, the only one I got from them before Amazon or Pulse was Firefly. My processing soon email for Snake-Eyes arrived yesterday!
Buzzer hit my POL today. Oddly enough, he is the only one.
Tunnel Rat arrived today from Target. Anyone have tips for keeping the stuff on his chest from wiggling around so much? They all seem to be a little bit bigger than they should have been.
