The FSS 5.0 line-up is as follows:

Ambush
Charbroil
Darklon
General Flagg
"Battle Corps" Cobra Viper
Salvo
Scoop
Raptor
Sneak Peek
SKAR Infantry Officer Steel Raven
"Shattered Glass" Xamot
Action Force Z-Force Gaucho
and, of course, a mystery 13th figure.

Maybe we'll get an Iron Anvil out of that Viper. In my opinion, that's the only turkey of a figure in here. I never liked that 1994 Viper.

Steel Raven is an awesome choice, since she's appeared in the Club's comics. Gaucho is a cool choice, too!

Also coming up is a three-pack of female Cobra troopers. The Club is working on getting the female Dreadnok named Heartwrencher turned out as a figure along with a Dreadnok Ground Assault 4WD vehicle.

Please note the number of female characters the Club is turning out!

:ambush: Ambush nice

:charbroil: Charbroil (helmet non-removable) disappointing

:darklon: Darklon (slightly different than previous figure) fine with me

:generalflagg: General Flagg (Battle Corps) ok

:salvo: Salvo (Pursuit of Cobra styled) cautiously optimistic

:scoop: Scoop nice

:raptor: Raptor ok

:sneakpeek: Sneak Peek (classic deco) expected

Steel Raven (SKAR Infantry Officer from Club comic) nice

:xamot: Xamot (Shattered Glass from Club's Adventure Team comic - new head) not sure

Gaucho (Z-Force Mechanic) expected but already made a custom which works

Pretty uninterested in most of these, but really looking forward to how they do Raptor.

I'll admit, non-removable helmets on Joes is a disappointment, especially when it completely covers their faces. But overall, I think it's a decent line-up.

I'm looking forward to seeing how Raptor comes out. I mean, is there any way to make this guy look serious? :)

What about the Rodimus and Arcee as humans set? When is that supposed to happen?

I really like this Ambush.

Charbroil isn't bad. They also changed their mind on the helmet which is removable.

Since my collecting changed, Sneek Peek and Raptor are the only ones of these I'll be adding, but otherwise really good selection this time around.

I don't keep up on the comics, is there a special reason only one of the Crimson Twins?

It is the worst one imaginable. He is from their club comic "shattered glass" universe. There are no "twins" he has a multiple personality disorder for the "other" twin.

Now this really does make up for putting him in a con set before...

a big MEH to General Flagg
I do not like the coat choice.
I despise those legs! I would rather have 25th Dusty legs than those.

I think it's great that the Fonz was able to rise to the rank of general.

That Flagg makes it easier for me to not want one (he was my first Joe)
Wonder why they went with the version 2 color scheme. Is that a new head or is it reused from someone. I can't quite tell.

I think it is General Iron Bear's head including his hat.
