I dont like the # after the name, its just weird to me, and i loved playing Call of Duty, so i choose this, but if i cold ever find out my old NightCreeper password here i'd go back to it, or if the NC account here could be deleted,then i would create another one smile.gif

I do not think so....the wave 3 bravos are the quickstrike and ice sabre, from what i have been told, this is prob gonna be wave 4 or just a random no wave vehicle, but it should be out in fall 04 from what i have heard...

unfortunately I'm not going to the Joe Con this year.

That Warhammer is just Bad @$$. One of the better new vehicles. I might have buy two when they come out.

Sgt Zap looks like Steven Segal.

KICK. IMMENSE. ARSE.

Easily the best non-repaint (post-2000) vehicle ever made. It's just an awesome vehicle all the way around. Maybe Hasbro's gotten sick of BBI kicking their tails in the vehicle department.

And for Zap........I absolutely HAAAAAATE the tiny waist-big chest syndrome that almost always ruins a would-be good figure. The figure is pretty darn good as is, but if hasbro would have trimmed down the shoulders/chest area a touch, the fig would have gone down as one of the best new sculpts ever (as if it'd have much competition LOL).

I did think of something people could do with Zap.....if you can afford a mess of Warhammers there's your green shirts!!!

I love the Warhammer, I will pick up a few at least. I agree with the thought that maybe Hasbro is tired of losing out to BBI. The only thing I dont like is the big missle launcher on top. We all know that you gotta have a 50 Cal on the roof.

Just a correction: the "longer ranged gun" looks to be .50 cal. Browning M2 just like Roadblock's. While the "shorter ranged gun" looks like a Mk19 Grenade Launcher (the new Bbi figures have these). The spring loaded launcher also looks like a TOW launcher. All three weapons are actual weapons found on Hummers.

The figure is pretty darn good as is, but if hasbro would have trimmed down the shoulders/chest area a touch, the fig would have gone down as one of the best new sculpts ever (as if it'd have much competition LOL).

Only Deogg could come up with a negative remark for what is obviously a frikin' Joe masterpiece. LOL. Cheers to you mate for your consistency.

This vehicle is absolutely stunning. BBI quality, which is high praise indeed. Maybe if this sells well, which I think it will, Hasbro will continue in this direction. Sgt. Zap looks great. I didn't think his hair looked blonde, more like it was cut very short and you could see his scalp. Either way I don't care if it's blonde or not, in 2004 men are allowed to dye their hair without being lambasted for it.

The Warhammer will be General Hawk's personal command vehicle in my universe. LOL All I need to find is the two star flag to fly on it.

All I have to say is AMAZING!!! I will definatly have to pick up umm, 1, no 3, no 5, I don't know how many! I think that the new figs are better that previous. I am referring to the new Leatherneck(with the Mech) and now Zap. The body proportions arn't there yet but they can at least blend with the old figs. I hope too that this is where hasbro might go. I have boughten many(and I do mean many) BBI hummers and 21st century "Mutt" jeeps and some world peacekeeper stuff for my Joes to travel in because to me Hasbro didn't have what I wanted, ie somewhat realistic military vehicles. This is DEFINATELY a major step in that direction and I for one will be on that bandwagon. I am not against the other stuff they put out. I just would like to see some realistic stuff too. Go Hasbro! I hope they keep it up. So far as a whole I like what I see coming.

Mattman: It holds 5, One Driver, 3 passengers and 1 gun turret operator smile.gif

As for the body proportions, SGT. Zap is bigger than the wave 10 and 11 figures....he is about wave 8 size

its awesome i might actually buy it..but it would have been better if they trimmed down the zap figure..look at the baroness and lady jayes figures,they look funny.

Hey, at least I didn't say that the fig sucks (which it defintiely doesn't). Zap and Slip-stream are probably the two best new sculpt figs yet. I'm just waiting to see if this is the beginning or a turnaround in the quality of product Hasbro churns out, or just a flash-in-the-pan fluke. Stuff like this, and the Thunderwing, and the comic 3-packs except for the Hulk....I mean, Clutch (that one's for you Obi LOL :D ) look pretty darn good. The stuff looks a LOT better than what is on the shelves now. I'm just waiting to see if it becomes a trend or not.

Is hasbro finally realizing that at a good 90%+ of VvV absolutely sucks? It's not this stuff (Thunderwing/Warhammer/Comic 3-packs) that will answer that.....it's the stuff that comes after.
