Cobra looks a mess but Destro's MARS troopers look ok and it is an ideal opportunity to get a different variation of the Grenadiers. I always wondered what do the employees at MARS look like and why were they never shown.

Is anyone interested in the GI Joe roc line?
My initial feeling is that its going to bomb.
The nostalia factor isn't there and that was the big seller with the 25th Ann line.

You're right about the nostalgia factor, jimbobx, but remember that the Transformers were selling without interruptionns and the figures of their very bad movie still were sold.

I would like some MARS figures CobraStickers does some sheets for them they look really good and maybe good on these figures. The chances of them being sold on the isle of man are very slim our Toymaster focuses primarily on Transformers

I already have Beachhead - it's the 25th sculpt in different colours (Bill - he'd be great to make an SAS Beachhead)

There's plenty of Snake Eyes and Storm Shadows, some cool figures such as the arctic ones, and some good updates such as Shipwreck. In addition we will see 25th characters in the line I'm sure, such as Scrap Iron.

Locally a lot of kids buy the Armed Forces and the cheaper 3 3/4" army stuff, so I expect GI Joe ROC to sell quite well.

Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought, or why we died. All that matters is that two stood against many. That's what's important! Valor pleases you, Crom... so grant me one request. Grant me revenge! And if you do not listen, then to HELL with you! -Conan the Cimmerian

oNLINE MERCHANT FROM hONG kONG. pUT 'RISE COBRA' into ebay and there's quite good deals (close or better than what it would cost off the shelf.

I've ordered Dr Mindbander off a trader in Macau, and a Doc for £15 too.

Also I bought issues 1-15 of AF monthly on ebay for 99p. I lost a set the day before, my max bid was £32, so I saved myself £31!!
