With the new vehicles, are there stands that come with the figures? I would like to display them with the rest of my single pack figures. If not, what do people do for display outside of the vehicle?

yes, the new vehicles also come with stands for the figures.
Even better, the stands say Clutch and Steeler rather than Double Clutch and "Steeler" Pulaski. I wonder how Hasbro got away with that but couldn't do it on the filecards or packaging.

What is amazing to me is how the Ram is almost the same damn size as the Armadillo. I know the Armadillo is a "mini-tank," but geez it is small. I do not remember that tank being so small from my childhood.

The first wave of Target exclusives DID NOT have stands. I just used extra stands I got from extra Jet Pack Dukes for instance. It would be really cool if someone could cast these things....but my guess is that they will have to remove the logos. So we're stuck with the clear round SW ones.

I'm really glad that they come with stands. I display my vehicles without figures and away from my figures. I started a thread last week asking if anyone is skilled at making custom stands. I would love to get a stand for the 3 target vehicle drivers. If anyone can help me please let me know.

Because it's INSIDE the box... they have to change the names that are on the package to meet trademark standards, but on the inside, where the consumer/store cannot see, they can print whatever they want. Actually they can do this in "descriptions" too just not with the marketed names on the package itself...
Something like "Ralph Pulaski... known as "Steeler" to his friends..."
Would be A-Ok.

Awesome - thanks for the reply. Not sure what I want to do about the target figures. I want to display them with the rest.

That would make sense if the filecards on the inside of the package had the proper names on them. But they don't, the filecards also get the Double Clutch treatment.
