Longtime fan of Frank and Co. so thrilled to see they're a preview for today.

One thing I find surprising - it's actually easier to hit Frank in melee than it is his soldiers. (Much as I love their comic, having to hit an 18 seems a bit...high. Then again, it's a nice balance to some of the other minions out there.)

Hitting an 18 up close on a bunch of swarming soldiers could prove to be quite a pain in the butt. I believe these guys could prove to be much better than some might initially think.

Awesome, another set of figures that I was looking forward to. I like how Rock's trait can be used with the Easy Company soldiers and medics of Cosmic Justice.

I should have known today's preview would be the easy company and sgt. rock since we already knew we were getting them anyways. They look great maybe the medic will be an le.

Maybe an LE?

It makes sense to me--

Easy Co guys are pinned down by gunfire, what do they do? Charge to base the enemy!

They should be able to hurt a tank, perhaps with captured panzerfausts . . .

And there goes the neighbourhood. As much as I am happy for these guys to be included ... this team just looks obscenely powerful for its points.

Seriously - this team is going to be unbelievably useful - but for the points I'm getting mighty concerned about pieces from just a few sets ago maintaining their relevance, let alone ones from farther back.

Include Liliah as a French Cabaret Dancer helping the Americans, and Easy Company can pierce Invulnerability . . .

Really? The Easy guys are good, but naked in defense from range. And Rock's not that cheap. Compare to Cap A, for instance. And none of them do 3 damage, and their range is short.

They seem well-balanced to me.

Easy Co goes on a mission behind enemy lines and para-drops in with Polish patriots (E Blackhawks) to harass the German armor lines . . .

[Sorry for all the posts, but these keep coming to me]

need i repeat myself (and others)?.... another static stance... while the detail on the sculpt appears more than satisfactory, could we please see a little more tension/action in the portrayals?...

they are like chocolate and peanut butter... mmmmmm. I do miss the PD team ability, but I assume that keeps the cost down. I for one will be rounding up an old Sgt Rock and swapping sculpts. This one is a little stiff.

So having Sgt. Rock on the field effectively turns the Easy Company Soldier into this:

#001 E Easy Company Soldier
Team: No Affiliation
Range: 6
Points: 30
Keywords: Past, Soldier

7 10 16 2

6 9 15 2

6 9 14 1

5 8 13 1

KO KO KO KO

KO KO KO KO

KO KO KO KO

KO KO KO KO

KO KO KO KO

KO KO KO KO

KO KO KO KO

KO KO KO KO

Yikes.

Not just Sgt. Rock, but any 50+ point character with Soldier keyword.

Solo and Captain America would make good leaders.
