saw these a few weeks ago. hated the idea of yet another commander, another stormy, hes outdoing snake's this time around. the troopers i can understand, because of army building. i really like the stinger driver, but im not touching this five, now if they had a bludd and the twins with 2 troopers it would have been worth it. how stupid are the to not realize that adding 3 new figures and 2 repaints would sell, but all 5 characters that have already been out...

Sums it all up, really.  One of the critcisms of the 25th line, even from those who liked the new figure construction, was that do we really need version 25 or 30 of certain characters, yet here we go again! Doesn't Hasbro listen to the people who buy their stuff? 3 versions of CC and Storm Shadow already? Hasbro's ignorance, and arrogant assumption that the fans are stupid, will be the death of the line.

The thing is,guys-this is an extra set that the Retailers wanted after the initial favorable response to the 25ths.
I guess I'm the only one here that likes it-more for me!

25th Anniversary Vehicles
With the 25th line, has Hasbro said whether or not they will make vehicles?

From what I've read around different sites, it is dependent on how well the figures sell. Good sales equals possible vehicles, poor sales means no chance of new vehicles.

so true. i think we'll see them because the wal mart here or k-mart cant keep them. i asked today and they said the wear house is out, so they must be selling great. vehicles and playsets, something i never got as a kid because i had a low allowance.

As of this moment, Hasbro is not considering producing vehicles.
However, if/when the movie drops......the necessity of vehicles becomes somewhat of a given.........albeit in whatever form they choose. They might not exactly be what we remember.....but at least they'll be something!!
And remember, since the new line is a slight bigger than the original....the regular Joes will fit in....maybe a bit extra room, but more is better than less!!!

Considering normal Joes have trouble fitting into some of the older vehicles anyway, that might be a good thing.

I THINK THAT THEY SERIOUSLY HAVE TO CONSIDER THE VEHICLES. LIKE SCARLETT SAID WITH THE MOVIE ITS A GIVEN AND THE FACT THAT THEY ARE FIT FOR THE 25TH. THE OG'S WILL FIT FOR SURE.

I'm really hoping for a Vamp. For a few reasons really...
1)It just scremes classic Joe!
2)Clutch
3) Repaint options. Stinger, Tan Vamp, that Cobra 4x4 thing that came w/ Vipra.
Other than that I could see 'em doing a Hiss.
