Nice well balanced review!

[@Apunkwithtoys]

Thank you 💪🏼

[@alekhidell4925]

Mine literally came in a few min ago while watching the review... Both my ladies came in clean!! Arms are tight(no falling off) Moves like butter, no heat was needed. Weapons were a little iffy. But overall I'm stoked on how it came out!

[@Apunkwithtoys]

Awesome, I hate seeing these things come in messed up.

[@ShawnWSavage]

My only gripe with the tan weapons is that they look “off” against the blue uniforms. The figures look pretty cool though!

[@Apunkwithtoys]

Yeah that’s something I have to look at more, at times I think it’s cool but not really against other troopers who all have black web gear.

[@TheWickedOne5150]

My two should be here today.

[@Apunkwithtoys]

Can’t wait to hear what you think

[@nassernasser4699]

Great review Lawrence! Just got my two sets of Valkyries too, i think they are awesome!!

[@Apunkwithtoys]

Thank you. I do have to play around with them a little more and make sure they hold up.

[@Buff88]

Cool set. I got it yesterday. I too had a problem with the right arm falling off the trooper in the tan. Shame.😑

[@Apunkwithtoys]

I’m not hearing of too many people having the arm issues, but it doesn’t make it better that you do.

[@frankcastle3638]

Getting mine tomorrow, already wish I would have ordered two

[@Apunkwithtoys]

Way I had to go with 2 just cause of the head options.

[@Old_Snake13]

Get mine on saturday... Can't wait to see if I have any QC issues

[@Apunkwithtoys]

Leg me know how yours turn out to be.

[@Old_Snake13]

@@Apunkwithtoys Other than a bent riflem no issues at all out of 2 packs. Must have lucked out.

[@haljordan1558]

Got 2 of these sets this week, found some marvel legends female heads that look great, just need to do a little work so they fit right. Great vid man

[@Apunkwithtoys]

I feel like they’ve done a better job making sure the female heads are interchangeable.

[@Allison_Troy]

These are cool.

[@Apunkwithtoys]

They’re not that bad.

[@loganholmberg2295]

So the cobra ladies like laser guns that swing to the right? Knowing is half the battle. 😂😂

[@Apunkwithtoys]

😂😂😂😂

[@davidhixson9962]

Hasbro really missed the mark this set should have been Number 69 in the series then all of us middle aged collectors with the mentality of a 14 year old would have been scrambling to pick up. this set could have been the best selling females in the entire line up! awesome review thank you

[@Apunkwithtoys]

😂😂😂

[@dannyvestal299]

I got them as well...but dammit, HASBRO has got to do better on the QC problems! It's really BS at this point brotha!👍🏼✌🏽💪🏽😎

[@Apunkwithtoys]

They have an issues with female arms for sure and it seems like something that could easily be rectified on upcoming figures, but it hasn’t been done 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@loganholmberg2295]

Got mine today. Arms on both where fine thankgod. Now why can't ALL the classified figures be this good?

[@Apunkwithtoys]

I’m not hearing too many complaints on line yet so that’s a good sign so far.

[@ToyKennections]

Excellent review Lawrence! Part of me wishes I got a second set to swap the extra heads/helmets onto. I actually had the belts on backwards too when I opened them up initially.

[@Apunkwithtoys]

I bought 2 just cause it had a 3rd head, I have issues.

[@ljkelty1766]

These look very cool! I hope Pulse restocks as stupid FedEx seems to have lost my package (it's delayed in transit at the final destination point). I really wish Pulse would use UPS or USPS instead.

[@Crim-kun]

All the paint for thd guns went to blast effects also the x shaped one is that way cuz some ARs have a muzzle break that vents the exess gass and fire through the sides in a crossed shaped pattern.

[@Apunkwithtoys]

They can keep the limp blast efforts 😂

[@shawnforrester1610]

Good review. I disagree on the comments about price. I feel with all the additional accessories we get the price is right. I purchased 2 boxes and would be happy buying more. And while the Marvel 2 pack is a few dollars less you get less stuff overall. But I’ll be picking that one up to use the extra heads on classified.

[@Apunkwithtoys]

We can agree to disagree. My issue is if a figure is 25, an army 2 pack should be less, like $45. Yes a bunch of accessories but they will all be reused if they’re not already and it’s their own property, so no royalties to pay. But I paid $55 and I’m not outraged by the price.

[@enriqueae7532]

I’m not sure about the tan but still prefer the black version.

[@Apunkwithtoys]

The black is way better, but maybe we will see something that goes with tan 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@PixelzNcreatureZ]

The tan colored accessories look off.. I thought the renders were more goldish. Mine should arrive soon

[@Apunkwithtoys]

I’d like to hear what you think after you have them in hand.

[@PixelzNcreatureZ]

@@Apunkwithtoys stupid holiday weekend. hopefully soon I can touch and lick

[@loganholmberg2295]

I "fixed" my cover girl by using some joint stiffener I got on ebay. Seems to work pretty decently. I don't do much with her though because of that.

[@Apunkwithtoys]

I have to pick some of that up as I have some figures that are starting to get loose.

[@grrrraffe]

00:19:30 - Darth Vadorette I will probably pass on these regular blue cobra troopers. Snow Bunny Serpent variants would have been day one purchase for sure though.

[@Apunkwithtoys]

😂😂😂

[@loganholmberg2295]

I really wanted a squad of 4 of these given all the weapons and options. Its myfirst time ordering with pulse so I want to keep it simple being its expensive shipping through fedex with probably bloody brokerage fees.

[@stevenaarhus8850]

What is that stuff called?

[@Apunkwithtoys]

A squad will get pricey lol

[@capnajera]

Great review! could you try swap the heads of the new Black Widow to see if they fit? 🙏

[@Apunkwithtoys]

So you can put the Black Widow head on them but you’ll probably need sticky tack cause the head dumbbell’s are different sizes. You can’t put the Valk on the BW from what I can se tho.

[@DareDevilDave75]

The 10 weapons would be pretty cool with a slight paint app here or there, or a light wash.

[@DareDevilDave75]

Tan not ten😖

[@Apunkwithtoys]

😂😂😂😂

[@brucelaborin2124]

My thing about the tan colored guns and belts, is this . . . they did something different, it may not work for some, but Rit synthetic Dye can fix that, no problem. If ya gotta have black guns and belts, there it is, simple.

[@walterwright8454]

Maybe she likes the blue with the beige. They compliment each other.

[@Buff88]

This set is overpriced. The tan guns look goofy.

[@Apunkwithtoys]

I agree that it should be priced around $45, but sadly they know we buy it.

[@loganholmberg2295]

I didnt know these where out. I checked my pulse account and it looks like they shipped but not my snow job which was part of the order. I would have thought they'd hold the one and shipped both together.....if they ship separate nut still only chg me 26 bucks to ship through fedex maybe pulse isn't so bad after all. I'm delusional aren't I? 😂😂😂😂

[@Allison_Troy]

If they charged you shipping as a part of the order of all the items when they ship the part of your order that didn't ship today it shouldn't have an additional shipping cost. They could suddenly change that up -- because companies love changing stuff up, but in the past when I've ordered thru Pulse and they ship things in different shipments there was only the one shipping charge.

[@Apunkwithtoys]

Tell me you have the $50 Pulse Premium where shipping is free.

[@thetruth1013]

Where can I find brick wall like that in the back?

[@Apunkwithtoys]

If it’s the gray walls you’re asking about they are 3D printed and the files can be found on thingiverse.com.

[@DareDevilDave75]

I like it, but how does tan web gear make you a desert trooper?!

[@Apunkwithtoys]

I just think that it’ll look good with desert figures cause the colors are close to Dusty.

[@loganholmberg2295]

I'm just happy they actual molded in magazines. 😂😂 Still doesn't explain why cobra troopers all seem to carry 2 pistols. the only people I know that carry 2 pistols are cops cause a pistol is their primary.

[@Apunkwithtoys]

Because it’s a fictional terrorist group 😂

[@LandofMert76]

Taboo because they aren't playable out of the box. Ultimately, they are toys meant to be played with. What little kid is going to have to continually heat up their toys to play with them?

[@Apunkwithtoys]

Well I really don’t believe that these are meant for kids, they really are adult collectables and that’s why I say warming up a figure is part of the game. I do see your point and technically, they are for 4 and over.

[@machineman6498]

Do the bodies seem durable enough to customize? Need a military style blank and worried about a solid base. Not worried about accessories.

[@Apunkwithtoys]

Yes for the most part, but the arms do worry me as they just feel like they could pop out at any time if you stress them too much.

[@curtislangford3181]

Real Life Firearms don't have paint apps on them...unless you're talking about hunting weapons. A paint app that reflects light could give away the owners presence to the enemy.

[@Apunkwithtoys]

Understandable but these are toys and they are females running around in blue uniforms……soooo. But yes Mark 2 Toys had talked about this and why he doesn’t paint his weapons.

[@gregarcher8177]

The mask is a bit Darth Vaderish imo.

[@Apunkwithtoys]

So I don’t think it was supposed to look anything like that, but when I looked at it I saw that hat you meant.
