But that is all the buzz that the set will be Red Shadows. I personally havent bought much club stuff the Moth stuff and the Tiger Force stuff they did. I would love to get my hands on the Iron Grenadiers set they did but I just cant afford it. I hate the 25th line they ruind it with all the re-paints. Still short of them comming out with a Python Patrol, Slaughters Marauders, Night Force, Tiger Force or Sky Patrol I probably wont spend $300 plus bucks on it.

It'd make more sense to me to do a set based on the movie. BUT as we are already getting movie toys, then there's not much point cuz the con sets are supposed to be pretty 'special'. I'd rather see DD's Plague get made. Or maybe even something the fans really want. I'd find a DECENTLY DESIGNED Greenshirt vs Cobra Trooper set cool.

no they dont.

dude red shadows don't suck, and i don't think they'll do anything with the movie, 2 different things, & don't think people will pay a high price just for greenshirts & cobra troopers. dude sorry i dont see this happening. if this rumor is true about this set, its going to make some series news

They were just a rebooted excuse to kill Lady Jaye and try to make some cash in a crapy comic economy. And it didn't work. I didn't think a crappy designed Dreadnok set would sell and it did.

i find that the red shadows are more interesting then cobra, even there leader is like 10 times more ruthless then CC, maybe if you read the action force comics it will bring you up to speed, as for the DD comics, they used it as to closed one door too open another, i think they did a good job on them, i was happy to see more international Joe's in the American comics.

I think you missed a few issues or something. The reason they started killing off everybody was to get a smaller and more manageable team to focus the stories on, and not get trapped into to much characters like the old comics did.
Killing off Jaye made Flint a different man - and to those who thought he didn't have an identity but was rather a Duke clone, this made him much more his own person.

They did spend to long getting there, but I liked what they did with the team, making it smaller and more focused.
