Sting Raider - 4-5 years since last available.
Firebat - Includes new tooling.
These packs - Target Exclusive. Exclusives often reuse molds, plus except for the CLAW none of these small vehicles have been on shelves in 4-5 years.
Basically, all this stuff will be "new" to anyone that hasn't been collecting Joe for years (and has generally been off of store shelves for longer than it seems). We're not excited because we -are- the ones that have been collecting for that long. It's just another reminder that Hasbro isn't marketing this movie line strictly towards us (but even then, rather cunning how they put a superior Grand Slam and a nice EEL repaint in there, eh?)
I mean heck, Star Wars recycles the exact same vehicle molds year after year after year yet still manages to have their vehicle line be successful.
Completely agree. I missed out on all the VvV, Spytroops and DTC stuff. So as far as I'm concerned all that stuff is "new mold" to me.
