I'm really excited for the cartoon packs. I've already got my preferred line-ups picked out. I doubt they'll happen like this, but a guy can dream:
MASS Device
1. Duke w/new, cartoon-accurate head (or just a re-tool of the already cartoon-accurate VvV Comic Pack head)
2. Torpedo (cartoon colors)
3. Snake-Eyes (purple v1 costume with no gloves)
4. Scarlett w/new, cartoon-accurate head
Revenge of Cobra
1. Flint (cartoon colors)
2. Lady Jaye (no hat, cartoon colors)
3. Mutt & Junkyard
4. Zartan (cartoon colors)
Pyramid of Darkness
1. Bazooka
2. Alpine
3. Quick-Kick
4. Dusty
Arise, Serpentor, Arise
1. Dr. Mindbender
2. Scrap-Iron (cartoon colors-- ie, gray helmet)
3. General Hawk (cartoon colors-- black hair)
4. And if they could somehow secure a license to do it-- Sgt. Slaughter!
G.I. Joe: The Movie
1. Jinx
2. Pythona
3. Golobulus
4. Cobra-La Guard
I suspect, however, that we'll see some of these characters single-carded before the year is out (particularly my choices for the Pyramid of Darkness). If that happens, I'll change my dream line-ups.
Also, I didn't list Falcon and Nemesis Enforcer under the movie because I was under the impression that was going to be a comic 2-pack-- Just like how the MASS Device CC and Baroness are going to be single-carded.
Finally, I'm betting that this is where we'll see the promised Scarlett and Lady Jaye with new head sculpts show up. I'd rather not see a Scarlett in the MASS Device set, but that seems the most logical place for her so I included her there. I'd much rather see a Destro with new lower arms that have no grenades or wrist rockets, and a new cartoon-accurate head.
EDIT: Oh, and I forgot-- Naturally, all the Joes in these sets would come with Snow-Job rifles!!
DOUBLE EDIT: Also, I didn't include Serpentor in the "Arise Serpentor Arise" set since it appears we're getting a new carded version of him this year, and I'd be willing to bet he'll also come with the just-announced Air Chariot.
