*sigh*
These new figures are FUCKING AWESOME. Didn't i told you to save money, cos these RoC figures we've been having where just the tip of the iceberg? Quote:
I was hoping once they got past the movie figures, Hasbro would focus on a combination of new characters and the previously unreleased classic figures. It looks like most of the RoC/PoC line is going to be multiple versions of the RoC figures and repaints of already released 25th/me, like paratrooper and snow serpent. Oh well.
We'll also get classic characters mixed in. A lot of vehicles, and all that miscelanea crap aside of figures. Old stuff, with new colours. A ton of new figures. More enviromental versions, and hi-tech stuff. Particularly "green" figures. Mark my words. Quote:
Thoughts on the new stuff:
Snow Job looks great with his giant grizzly beard. Really digging Charbroil. Jungle Duke is actually pretty cool, very Predator. Night. F*cking. Viper. Ripcord in HALO Jump gear. Who woulda thunk it? Volcano Viper. Yes. Finally, a more realistic, yet classic-themed Zartan! I love it! Mail-Away CC. I can more than deal with a mask that looks like a skull. And the card art is actually pretty killer. I wish Jungle Storm Shadow looked like the one from the Ninja Strike Force. And are they actually releasing the HEAT-Viper and FRAG-Viper? Or were those just customs? Indeed.

Loving the Night Viper although the night vision head gear looks a little big along with the gun?
HEAT Viper looks awesome, Arctic duke, Desert Zartan, City Strike Firefly and the mail-in Cobra Commander look great too! Although, is it just me or does the mail away CC look like he belongs in the Indiana Jones line? Not sure on the new HISS, not at all impressed by the Night Raven, let alone a repainted Sand Serpent version! Remeber last year when everyone was bashing the ROC line and Hasbro after seeing the prototype figures, this seems to be happening again. I'm willing to bet that most of the people saying they are'nt interested in most of the new stuff will change their minds, again, once they see the stuff in person just like what happened with the ROC stuff this year. If you want to make a quick buck, grab some ROC Ice Vipers, add some red paint apps and put them on ebay as Elite Ice Vipers from 2010 ROC/POC line.

Surprised they aren't doing a Warthog to go with the City Strike theme for the Joes. That would be an awesome urban assault troop carrier vehicle for the Joes in their blue urban camo patterns and loaded with PIT Commandos and gear. Make a new ROC/POC Sgt. Slaughter for the driver that comes with the vehicle.
With the City Strike theme, does anyone foresee them making a Low Light to fit in with that sub-group?

Is that armored cycle with figure a Transformers Crossover or something? Looks like standing next to the bike with figure on it is a robot version of the same bike.
Hidden signal from Hasbro that there is a G.I.Joe/Transformers movie coming in the future? Maybe?

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
