Thanks for the up-dated pictures, skorzeny! I didn't know they had a website for the line.
Anyone try contacting them? Where and when can I get these?!? :cry:

That would be the 4 newest ones. I still need to find the previous wave, or at least the two from that wave I want.
:(
The hunt goes on......

I still have yet to see any of these north of the border.

Are these figures able to shoulder their weapons?

Do you mean properly hold their weapons? If you add wrist articulation (which I did), then yes. Without that, not so much. But the arms, shoulder, vest, etc. are all positioned/sculpted right to allow it.

Almost none of the guns have excessively long stocks to pose a problem, except ironically the M4 CQB provided with the SEAL Night Ops guy.

Were those last four figures ever released? I'm looking for the latest Night Stalker figure in particular.

I found one!!!

Hit the local Ross this morning and found ONE lone single carded figure sitting on the self. Looked all over for more, but found none. And I had hit another Ross yesterday and found zip. Best part, check the price!

The hunt is almost over!! :D

That's great, but I don't have a 5 Below within 50 miles. I've checked. Thanks anyway.

Another find;
I hit a Ross the other day and found the BBi Air Assault glider/parachute figure for $4. Already have one, so I passed. Really cool guns, though.
