Some thoughts on the poll options:
* As some have stated before, I don't know if retooling an existing vehicle is a great idea through this platform. Let's take the WHALE as an example, as it seems to be highest on most people's lists. Would I pay $60 for a WHALE @ retail w/ Cutter and another figure... ABSOLUTELY. However, would I pay $150-$200 as some people are suggesting as a price point through HasLab... NO WAY IN HELL. That price point is TOO HIGH for this community to support if multiple thousands have to be made.
How about the Renegades Coyote?... again, would gladly pay $50 for this with Ren Flint and Lady Jaye @ retail. However, the Renegades line was too short lived to have that kind of financial support from the community. The O-Ring people have no connection, and the toys do not fit in with the modern era aesthetic.
This leads me to an un-released ARAH vehicle. In my opinion, this is the only viable option. The O-ring guys do not already have one, so they would be in the market to add to their collection along with the Modern Era Collectors. You would need both sides to support something this big!
I dunno, $200 bucks can generally get you a near-complete WHALE second hand. I'd personally be happy to pay $150 - $200 for a release, especially if it fixed a few issues with it.
But your point is still taken. My first and second choices over all else would be #1, The Concept Coyote and #2, that big damn Red Flying Cobra plane.
