It’s the end of 2007 and Hasbro has released one more wave (technically two) of figure for those last minute Christmas shoppers! Wave 4, a series of eight previously released Battle Pack figures, consists of Cobra Air Trooper, Cobra Commander, Destro, Duke, Gung-Ho, Roadblock, Scarlett, and Storm Shadow. It’s a perfect fit for those fans who are maintaining a collection of all of the carded figures. As these figures have been previously reviewed, I’ve posted a gallery of the images of the carded figures in the 25th Anniversary Review Index.
Also, I’ve managed to find most of Wave 5 so look for reviews of the Crimson Guard, Flash, and Snow Job soon!
