I'm hoping like heck they do make it here.
I'm still pissed I missed the proper conquest and rattler (finally found them at a mark-up). I have several canadian-flagged vehicles, and i'd love to see Hasbro do that again But no, thats too much effort. Heck, we get the crappy intenational cards, and they couldn't even be bothered to change jet-pack Duke's Flag to a Canadian one out of courtesy. Hey if any of you Canadian guys need a Python Patrol Conquest I have 6 of them MIB available. The price is $12.00 plus shipping/paypal fees. |

I Just hate the helmet, but that's an easy fix.

Isn't Repeater black now? In any case, just swap the head an arms with a greenshirt and be done.

OK, yeah, the helmets a tad off, but I'm ok with it. (though I forsee a lot of people changing it.
I could never get the helmet to go on my original. Anyone else have that problem? |

Really? LoL
Actually, the head of this new Charbroil is the only useful thing he has. The helmet can be used for any other figure, and the chromed head is cool for CC. Btw, i don't hate it. It's just a figure which i don't care about the character, i don't like the design and colors, and i see little use for customs...not that i hate it, i just will not buy it.

I got a Charbroil helmet in the mail 2 weeks ago, I got it on him but it doesn't look too good. I'd prefer it if the mask covered his head AND neck. It just barely covers his chin as it is.

There's just too many more recognized and requested figures from the classic line to justify doing a Charbroil. It feels like Hasbro just had a chance to push off an easy (and inaccurate) repaint.
"Oh we have a whole bunch of blow torch vests." "Throw it on some else's body and slap a helmet on him. Now he's Charbroil." "Who?" I wish Hasbro would spend a little more time on the tank looking at some of the amazing customs the boards members are pulling off using nothing more than existing parts. I realize tooling is expensive and the need to reuse parts over and over keeps costs down, and ensure's profitability but I wish they were little smarter in their choices on how to use those parts.
