Got the Praetorian and Elite Praetorian! These are really fun robot figures. Nice poseability and I love the energy shields and ricochet effects!
Nice shots!
I've wanted to place an order since the new stuff popped up on the website (wanna grab a breast cancer awareness figure, too) and I've been debating between the two Praetorians. This has fully pushed me into the Elite camp.
Glad to finally get my hands on some Garrison troops. I prefer their down-to-Earth militia vibe over the supervillain looks of the Swarm or Praetorian.
My Action Force team still outnumbers the enemy by, like, two to one, so I'm hoping more Garrison characters are in the pipeline.
Catching up on some old business, I finally got an original Swarm Trooper and gear pack.
I'm finding the bug-wing pack doesn't peg into the trooper's back hole*; it's both too thin and too long**. Was that normal when these came out? Is there an easy fix for it?
* Stop it.
** I said stop it!
@fletch Wave 6 is gonna be all villains so I'd expect something. Especially with Bobby mentioning alot of new bladed tooling for that wave
@fletch It plugs in. You have to make sure the harness overlay is inline with the hole. Takes a little effort to plug in.

Damn, haven't seen these till now. I'm liking the green one.
Just received an order earlier this with the green Elite Praetorian and he's pretty great. Came with a pink Steel Brigade and I like it even better in person.
Also picked up the loose GID Swarm Trooper and it does take a minute to realize what you gotta do with that backpack to get it to stay in there. Really like the two extra heads with this version.
Tried the new Basic Rhea Ripley head on a spare Eclipse. Rhea's head is a smidge bigger, but I think it might be close enough for me. It's a rather nice head sculpt that I would like to get on a better body, plus I thought it would be fun to mix Rhea in with GI Joe or Action Force. The head staying on the post is a little finicky as the socket is a bit too small. Pretty good face printing on a $12 figure. They even caught a little drip in the makeup over the middle of her lips and three silver nose rings.
Oh wow, is that the Main Event 153 Rhea? Her headscan works really well there.
@secondwhiteline yeah, that's the one. It might look a little big from certain angles, but it's mostly good. Her skin tones being a close match was a nice bonus to allow a sleeveless look.

Damn, that looks amazing! I only know about Ripley from hearsay, so I have no attachemend to the person, but this head fits perfect on this body! Makes me want to recreate it.
