These are two of the 4 figures that constitute wave 4, I believe. I got mine from Hasbro Toy Shop today.
It's not really like me to adopt another line of figures other than Star Wars but I've got to tell you, I am hooked on alot of these joes! I mean as far as articulation, design, sculpt, and all of the accessories, they just can't be beat.
Today I got the Skydive figure and the wave 4 Destro figure.
Skydive has a well equipped removable halo vest with killer detail. The halo helmet is removable and has attachment holes for his air hoses. He's got a holster on one lower leg with a pistol, There is this crazy winged jetpack with spring loaded wings that attaches to his back that has a pair of removable bombs and the two pieces that peg into his upper back are spotlights, I think. When his vest/rig is off, the upper body sculpt is fairly impressive in itself. He could easily pass for a cool looking mando or rc with a few extra parts added.
I kind of wish that each of the new figures came with an accessory list or something to help you figure out what went where but it's kind of fun to find out for yourself. Although the wing pack accessory is kind of wonky, this figure sure looks cool.
Now the Destro weapons supplier figure is also interesting. The first thing that you notice upon cracking his blister open is the briefcase full of money that he has. One side has a plastic insert of molded and printed money in two countries denominations but the other side contains individual pieces that are convincing bundles of cash, also in two different countrie's currency, printed on both sides. Not that I will use em for anything but that is just cool.
Destro has an armored vest with lots of detail that I haven't gotten around to removing yet because after I got him posed with his mini gun, I was afraid to take it all apart again. He has this one huge shoulder pad that is also removable. Now the mini gun mount is a marvel of design and function and has a great range of movement even if his arms can only hold it in so many positions. Not that his arms arn't quite poseable. It's just that the gun is so bulky that it is kind of a pain to get the mount to stay in his waist located peg hole while his hands are on the control handle and holding handle while getting his ammo feeding belt snapped into the gun and onto his back, all at the same time. It's a pain in the butt but very cool.
If I see any of these two in the store, I will pick up at least one more of each for custom possibilities.
If I see the other two figures of this wave, i will probably pick em up and review em here.
