He is also a little smaller than other 25th aniversary figures I have purchased. What's up with these figures, is this another line?

He's a repaint of the original, the others are repaints of Valor vs Venom (I think), weird series, don't know why Hasbro did this series, must'a had a surplus of extra figures.

Found wave 6 comic packs (Scrap-Iron, Mainframe, and Hard Master) at Kelowna TRU.

Kelowna and Westbank Wal-Marts both have two pegs filled with an odd assortment of older figures in Canadian, American, 25th ann (silver card in bubble), and "modern" (not silver) packaging.

Are we going to see a Dr. Mindbender at some point? I needs me some mad scientist for my Cobra army.

I'm also alone in this, but I'd like to see some more of Cobra-La.

You're not alone. I'd be happy to see Golobulus and Pythona come down the pipe. Put the Royal Guard on a single card so I can grab a few. I'd even like to see a Cobra-La "nobleman" with interchangable heads; One Multi-eyed Cobra Commander head, and one pre-accident CC/ generic nobleman head.

Also, Dr. Mindbender was confirmed in a Hasbro Q+A. All they said was that he wouldn't be single carded.

For those interested...

I've put up the majority of that GI Joe haul I bought a few months back on eBay.

I know some of you were interested in the vehicles as well, I can always take them down if you PM me an offer. All vehicles are 100% unless noted in the auctions.
