Ive seen all but the Snow job 2pack. The biggest thing I've noticed is how bad the boxes are beat up and the clear bubble is scratched on the figures. These look like something you see at Big lots that are 3/4 years old and been moved around a lot , not brand new 2014 toys.

I ordered the vehicles from
TRU.com because the ones in stores wore so beat up. Mine looked as bad . So I guess they all are like that.

the packaging is of flimsier material

Well, there's now a Toys "R" Us Express near me, and they've got 50th Anniversary Joes -- at rather inflated prices. Just as glad I got the Arctic set from online, although they did have it in stock. Looked like they had exclusively wave 2.

So I finally saw the Lady Jaye/Baroness set. Whoof. Lady Jaye looked crosseyed, and Baroness looked like somebody shrunk her head. Ouch. I'm prepared, if not pleased, to declare that two-pack the worst of the entire lot.

I'll take either lady's head over that circus freakshow star that is SnowJob's head. Am I the only one that sees how ridiculously shallow it is front/back? The poor boy has no place for an occipital lobe!

Anyway, we got a post-Xmas bonus at work this year, for whatever reason. I picked up a ladies 2pack (I wish!) and a Docks set. I've the same issues most seem to be having, but none of these I've had are severe enough to regret purchasing them. The Docks set is a nice price, too! I quite like the VAMP's deco pattern.

That happened to me with a 30th Anniversary Cobra Viper. Although it just happened when I tried to turn his head, not take it off.

Just a heads up, these were on clearance for 9.98 at my local tru. The also had some POC single packs( arctic cc, blowtorch, jungle bat, and general Hawks)!!!??? That they must have found in the back somewhere.

Yeah, that POC wave started hitting TRU about 2 weeks ago. Had they been on clearance like the Retaliation figures, I might have grabbed some BAT's and Cobra Commanders. Did grab RET Lady Jay, Colton, and Dark Ninja for $3.98 each.

I want some jungle BATs but I don't want to drive 40 minutes each way to find 5 Blowtorches. I saw on hisstank where someone found a full box of renegades figures too. Now that would be worth the drive.

Someone on Facebook was saying he called the 1800toysrus # and gave them the sku # for the BATS and has been finding them that way... ???

I saw the POC wave pop up at a TRU I stopped at. $8. Arctic CC, Jungle BAT, Blowtorch and General Hawk. I coulda sworn there were others in that wave when it was released originally, but they weren't there.

I wouldn't mind some more Cobra Troopers & Vipers.
I think I saw someone mentioning the Hazard Vipers.
