Yeah, they dumped the actor likenesses. Aryan hunk Duke is back, no more goateed emo Duke. Cobra Commander will not be a mail-in but a chase figure. That means if I find one I can sell it for more than I paid! Thanks for making everyday euthsiasts into scalpers, Hasbro! I might pick up that AWE if it's $15. The Sky Hawk is fugly, I might have gotten a straight recolor of the 25th one I missed. The polar attack track and doom cycle don't do much for me. If only they worked in the Stinger. The larger vehicles look okay, but the HISS driver looks like a mess of thrown together parts and gear, though. The Mechs hold little appeal to me. Last edited by Lava Boss : 02-13-2010 at 03:07 PM.

The figures back in 2001 look good, very modern, possibly like they're from the year 2010. Hmmm, there's a link there, Dr. Dorman, but I don't see it. Would you like me to sing a song? Daisy...Daisy....

Is for constructive criticism (will even settle for destructive) just anything but "Nice shot" or "Awesome".

Outrider It's been a great ride! Offline --> Posts: 14,302 --> Join Date: Jun 2005	There isn't anything there to tempt me other than the Vamp 4x4 vehicle. The Sky Hawk repaint is a joke, the hew Hiss is a piece of sci fi fluff, and the AWE Striker/Snow Cat/Rage repaints are lazy. The Mechs? I don't think so... __________________ "The future's uncertain and the end is always near." - The Doors "Roadhouse Blues".

I'll definately be getting the Cobra five pack, the Destro and Baroness are awesome and Zartan is one of his best sculpts. I really like the new packaging, but it looks like we're still stuck with the half-assed file cards. I'm glad to see Duke isn't stuck with Channing Tatums's goofy looking head. I'll be picking up a couple of those new HISSes and a VAMP as well. Can never go wrong with some great looking new Fireflys, I'm not too sure about his head, but that can be easily changed if I don't like them. __________________ The United States will conquer Terrorism with the help of God and a few Marines. Some people, when trying to avoid thinking about those things that cause them pain, turn to drink, or perhaps food, or drugs... I turn not to any of those... I collect action figures, turning my mind to the hunt, so that I might find a mote of peace... Over the years, I've found that alcoholism is much more socially acceptable by far.
