I read/saw a review of the repaint variants for Scarlett and Roadblock just now. I like both of them better than the initial releases, especially Scarlett. I didn't buy either before, but if I run across these (hahahaha, that's rich!) I might pick them up. Where did you see them? I'd like to check them out toynewsi.com/9-38138

Cmdstore has the repaint Duke listed for sale. They also have a picture of Snake-Eyes without the red spot above the visor with the fixed sheath. This version of Snake-Eyes is packaged with the knife in the sheath.

Scarlett looks a ton better. The hair not being hot orange is a massive improvement, but the darker attire is an upgrade, too. That's enough for me to get that one. It makes sense now why those two would be added back into lineups. I still think they'll sit, but definitely not as badly now.
Not enough there for me on Duke. I just don't like that Roadblock. It's the head. I'll stick with the Kimbo version.

I don't know if it's the same for the later figures. Brickseek is showing stock for Zartan at most of my stores. Some stores supposedly have Zartan in limited stock and others say 2-3 or 3-4. I don't think it's accurate because brickseek is also showing stock for Duke, Snake-Eyes, CC, Gung-Ho, and the Ninja. Those figures are not packed with Zartan. He's supposed to be packed with Scarlett, Roadblock, and Cobra Trooper.

Amazon has Roadblock in stock with Scarlett and Duke available for preorder with a in stock date of mid Feb. Since all are shipped and sold through Amazon, figured I'd give it a shot to see if I end up getting the new repaints.

GameStop has duke, roadblock and scarlet for $16 each if anyone still needs them. Part of a daily deal.

Finally bit the bullet and grabbed 2 Firefly’s off of eBay... came to $75 Canadian each shipped to my house... double the price then if I found it in my local TRU whenever they get released... saves on gas for hunting and I get them NOW!!!.. I’m ok with it...
BUUUUUT I desperately need help with Vipers, no way I can justify those eBay prices, as I need 6 for my display!

For anyone curious, the Duke and Roadblock I ordered from Amazon arrived today, Duke had the updated deco Roadblock did not. Still waiting on Scarlett.

From what I saw, Roadblock never went out of stock, while Duke and Scarlett both did. So it might make sense that they're still shipping out original deco stock for Roadblock, while the others are replentishment cases.

That was my thought as well and with how easy Amazon makes it with returns, figured it wouldn’t hurt to give it a shot. On a side note, I do like the toned down colors on the new deco Duke. Removing the gold and unnecessary red looks so much better in my opinion.

I also have a Scarlett arriving tomorrow from Amazon. I know some people said the Scarlett they ordered a week or two ago was the newer version. Fingers crossed this batch is also the new deco. Not that I minded Scarlett's original deco, I just want this new one too.
