Holy cow!! a 6-pack divided within itself?

I believe am gonna pick up at least several of these

anybody else's keyboard drenched with drool over the Vipers Pit 6-pack??
am picking up a bunch of these, too bad they arent Viper Rifles tho...

Okay, I was set to drool and still will buy plenty, but seeing new upper thighs is cool, but still with BAT boots? Quibble quibble I know, but I hate those boots even though I got tons of the newer vipers with them!

My keyboard and my underwear. They finally made vipers look like vipers again.....

I'm so excited. Thanks for the pics guys. Looks like wave 4 is going to be a good one.

I love it, i love it, i love it.

I hope theres more havent heard about comic packs yet or any other arah style joes........but i dont want to get to worried....

ps any rumors about where next years con will be?

Eh, the Vipers still got BAT butts, too. But they recasted the thighs? I'm more concerned if they fixed the neck so they aren't all looking down. I supposed there's concern that these will devalue the 1986 Vipers on the after market and...I could not care less.

Steel Brigade vs. Plague somebodies. The bad guys save the pack,

**Skystriker** · 06-30-2006

its a nice idea! why has that been thought of before? or has it?

Is it me or is Hasbro willing to remold some key lost figures bodyparts lately. The vipers remolded, new head of MC con set mercer a retooled Sgt Slaughter head..new comic pack figures Horrowshow, Hannibal, Cobra Commander v21 (head) Zap v3 (Head), Stormavik (head)....

maybe, just maybe we might get the v1 EELs and v1 BATS and others.......if these re-released vipers go well maybe they will be inclined to start doing more.....put me down for 10 viper pits please....

maybe Hasbro is waiting until the 25 anniversary

I'll be getting probably 4 Viper packs (since I already do have a bunch of Vipers). The Steel Brigade pack has some nice heads (for customs) and some nice gear but I remain unimpressed by new sculpts. Oh, well, I hope we still see a few more comic packs.

Are the Steel Brigade people new characters, or am I failing to recognize them?

I'll have to see the helmets again, but I wasn't blown away. I really like the Steel Brigade concept, and I've just about finished my 12 man squad. I am not sure if I'll bite on these or not.
