The Desert Zartan Nomad disguise sounds kind of cool as does a new Hiss with moving threads. Other than that, wait and see I guess.

So now we are at 47 regular single carded ROC figures for 2009, that should be the end of them for this year.
So far we have another 15 confirmed for 2010 but no longer called Rise of Cobra, now it's called Pursuit of Cobra. They will most likely be just like the ROC cards, mainly the City Stike Duke & Snake Eyes, Arctic Threat Storm Shadow, Desert Assault Desert Viper & Jungle Assault Ripcord. The new colors shown on those cards should be what the 2010 ones look like too, since they are all going to be Desert Assault, Jungle Assault, Arctic Threat & City Strike figures now. So 47 from 2009 and another 15 so far in 2010 makes 62 single carded figures in the line, only 12 away from the amount of single carded figures in the whole 25th/ME line. Maybe 2 more waves in 2010 to make 4 total and then back to 25th/ME style again? Who knows but we can all dream, right?

Maybe if they stick with the ROC/POC line through next year, we could get a Zartan as President for the SDCC exclusive figure? Could be packaged kicked back in the chair with his feet up on the president's desk, complete with the official presidential seal on the front of the desk. That would be a pretty cool exclusive!
Or maybe SDCC exclusive Zartan set of 4 figures from the movie? Zartan in black when he was in M.A.R.S. sub, Zartan in G.I.Joe MP disguise(Collection 2 Wave 1 figure), Zartan in Nomad desert disguise(2010 Wave 1 figure) and then Zartan as President figure to round out the 4 pack? Or could be a ROC Zartan 5-pack if you had the above 4 and tossed in a Zartan in the lab getting injected with nanomites figure with disfigured face.

Now they are just getting out of hand with all of the different ROC figures/vehicles!
Due for 2010: Wave 1 - Duke (Arctic Threat) Snow Job (Arctic Threat) Destro (Arctic Threat) Elite Ice Viper (Arctic Threat) Storm Shadow (Jungle Assault) Zartan (Desert Battle - Nomad Disguise) Ripcord (Desert Battle - Delta-6 Accelerator Suit) Wave 2 - Snake Eyes (Arctic Threat) Duke (Jungle Assault) Cobra Commander (Jungle Assault) Jungle Viper (Jungle Assault) Recondo (Jungle Assault) Scarlett (City Strike - ninja Scarlett) Firefly (City Strike) Heavy Duty (Desert Battle) Wave 1 Vehicles - Cobra Ice Cutter Cobra HISS Cycle Armor (Ashiko) Armored Panther (Outback) Snow Cat (Whiteout) Rage (Alley Viper Officer) Sand Serpent (Night Raven Repaint) (Star Viper) and a special mail away Cobra Commander! OK, City Strike has some very cool stuff with it, The new HISS , Snow Cat and Rage are all great, but the rest are just blah. There's nothing here that stands out to me. How many different versions of Duke and Ripcord do we need anyway??? Anyone else think the mail-away CC's mask looks like a bug?

I agree. A little bit of a let down. There's nothing here that stands out to me. How many different versions of Duke and Ripcord do we need anyway??? Apparently, 7 or 8 for each of them, ugh. Anyone else think the mail-away CC's mask looks like a bug?

Colonel 37-39 Colonel 40-49 Brigadier General 50-74 Major General 75-99 Lt. General 100+ Chuck Norris And if anyone gets that far I'll figure something else out. FROM ROB I am going to announce the Scenario Rules for you guys. They will be added to the Game thread, as soon as the intro is complete. In the meantime, the teams will now have 12 days to prepare their teams. Best of luck! Cobra and the Night Creepers have invaded Washington!Act 7 Scenario: The White House has been infiltrated. Firefly and the Night Creepers are after hostages! The Vice President has launch codes for two nuclear missiles in his safe, and Cobra wants them. The G.I.Joe team must fight their way past Cobra and rescue the prisoners, and retrieve the launch codes before Cobra can escape in the Steel Crusher! Team Goals/Victory: G.I.JOE: 1) Make your way to the White House (Move Goal = 65). 2) Once there, fight your way into the White House (Defeat 1 named character). 3) Rescue the hostages, before Cobra escapes (Move Goal =175) 4) If Cobra escapes, stop them before they can reach another vehicle (Move Goal =250). 5) If they reach another vehicle, locate the hidden Joe Vamp Mark II (Move Goal =260). 6) Defeat Cobra before they reach the airstrip and escape( KO all characters). COBRA: 1) While in the White House, find the Vice Presidents safe (Move Goal = 65). 2) Crack the safe and get the missile launch codes (Move Goal =125). 3) Escape the White House (Move Goal = 175) 4) Slow down the Joes pursuit (Defeat 1 named character). 5) Find the Hidden Cobra Rage and use it to get away before the Joes find and destroy it (Move Goal =250). 6) Escape to the airport and return to Cobra Island with the launch codes (Move Goal =TBD) Or, defeat the G.I.Joe team and return to Cobra Island (KO all characters). Each team has multiple mini goals. Some you will need to use the move option for, others not. Pay attention to them carefully. As each goal is met, that team will get a "break". Each character on the team will regain 1 HP This does not apply to vehicles. Some goals may not be able to be accomplished, or accomplishing them may result in the completion of the game. Other notable events: The more you move, the better chance you have to find things that can help you. Risk vs. Reward. There are 6 pieces of armor hidden throughout the game. There are 2 Med Kits. ** There are 4 Civilians involved in the game. *** Be aware, there are other things hidden as well, and they are not all helpful. Some damage you, and some give you the ability to damage the opposing team. **Med Kits** There are 2 Med Kits to be found. They are found by reaching the corresponding move goal (random). Med Kits can be used once, and only by a medic or combat medic. When a player is KO’d, instead of their normal turn, a player (medic) may choose to use a Med Kit. Cobra Combat Medic Use Med Kit on Firefly +5 Doing this replaces a players normal Turn. A Med Kit grants a KO’d player 5 HP, and the character is instantly revived. Once revived, that character can be targeted and healed once again. This must be done within 10 friendly (your team) posts of the KO. If it used after that, it does not work, and is lost. When a Med Kit is found, the team Leader, Co Leader or Squad Leader must designate which player will hold it. Only that player may use it. Once this decision is made, the post granting the med kit can NOT be edited. Doing so nullifies it, and the med kit is lost. In other words, a Cobra Soldier posts a move, bringing the teams total to 10MP. The team finds a med kit, and the squad leader posts which medic is now in possession of the med kit, It is handed off to a medic for later use, and stays in his/her possession until it is used. Decide wisely who you give this to, as it may not given away. ***Civilians*** During the game, the teams may encounter non combatants, called civilians. When you reach a specified move amount, your team will encounter a civilian. When this happens, the team will receive 3 options: SAVE IGNORE KILL Each of the choices has benefits, but some also have repercussions. Some have both. A Leader, Co Leader, or Squad Leader must post what they’d like their team to do. They have to do this within 10 friendly (your team) posts. If this is not done, it will automatically be taken as Ignore. GIJOE Squad Leader Soldier Save Civilian GIJOE Leader Soldier Kill Civilian GIJOE Leader Medic Ignore Civilian Once a response is posted, it cannot be edited. Doing so voids the post. Doing this does NOT take the place of a Leaders turn. Each civilian is different, as are their responses. The New Game begins on at midnight on August 19, 2009. I need final rosters, with class assignments, by 8-17-2009. The roster cap is 50. If both teams are even, and wish to add more players, it may be done so, but on a player by player basis. Be advised, the scenario rules may be adjusted prior to start. Final rules will be soldified no later than 8-17-09
