Sigma 6 should be hitting retail this week, so the question has to be asked: do you care?
It's obvious Sigma 6 has a Xevoz-inspired look (at the least), so will you give them a look to show your love for Xevoz and its creators or does that not impact whether or not you pick up the figures?

I might end up picking up some Sigma Six, but only because I think they look kind of cool.
The only reason their stylistic similarity to Xevoz would matter is if they came apart like Xevoz. Then I would snap them up without a second thought.

Nope. My budget is drained between ML, TMNT and Xevoz.

They don't come apart, they're just sort of styled similar to Xevoz. I believe they were designed by the same team. They're much bigger than Xevoz and, again, aren't interchangeable.

I'm considering Stormshadow and Snakey, but without the bashability, they pale before xevoz...

I'll be watching the show that's for sure. And if they do a good job of selling the product, I might eventually break down and get some. But I'll hold off as long as possible, these figures are WAYYY to expensive. Not to mention the scale they're at (roughly 8 inches)..that doesn't appeal to me much.
On the other hand, the style is great, and they seem to have pretty decent articulation judging form the little stop motion videos from the official website. If the characters look anything like their 80's selves, that'll help a lot too. Right now though, Cobra Commander sucks sadly.
Oh and for some reason, the Sigma 6 figures keep reminding me of the Star Wars Force Battlers figures..damn those are lame toys...

I'm picking up Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow for sure. Whether or not I pick up any of the others will depend on how much I like Sankes and Stormy.

i too will be picking up snake eyes and storm shadow for sure (gotta love dem ninjas), as for the others i am not so sure of. i wish that they weren't so big and expensive, but in return they do come with some sweet accessories. i also agree that cobra commander looks like a turd sandwich, not sure what's up with that head sculpt. i know that line 1 has 1 villain and line 2 has 2, but i also hope that they put out destro, baroness and zartan soon. nothing kills a toy line like an over-abundance of heroes and not enough villains. some female charcters would be cool too.

I'll have to see them in person before I make my final decision. How much do they retail for?

I'll have to see them in person before I make my final decision. How much do they retail for? They've been quoted as around $15, but I believe KB will have them for $20 and probably less at Walmart.

. . . nothing kills a toy line like an over-abundance of heroes and not enough villains. No joke, Besides that, most of the coolest characters in the G.I. Joe universe are the villains.
