My biggest concern is for the quality of these sets. I bought a box of 10 and I hope they don't come full of sloppy paint jobs and loose joints.
From an army builder perspective, this is a dream come true. Because of the artic set, I had absolutely no poblems passing on all the scalpers $13-$20 prices on Snow Serpents. I'm hoping that SDCC shows some more of these sets and one of them is a BATs set. Then I'll be in scalper-free heaven! I just hope the BATs color pattern isn't drastically altered, like replacing the yellow with purple or something.
I'd guess at SDCC we'll see two more sets in time for Christmas in one of the following themes:
1. Cobra Jungle
2. Cobra Deep Sea
3. Cobra Python Patrol
4. Cobra BAT Attack
5. GI Joe Tiger Force
6. GI Joe Night Force
Hopefully Hasbro is grabbing sales data real time and is seeing that people are ordering multiples of the Desert/Artic set because they are troop builders. It would really stink if they offered one Joe pack and one troop builder back because then multiple pairs and cases wouldn't sell as well, in my opinion. | |

6. GI Joe Night Force | while i'd welcome just about anything on your list (especially Tiger Force now that almost all the characters are done) i'm guessing since these are do out in November it's unlikely they will crank out another wave by Christmas. Hopefully they do do well enough for Hasbro to do some more.
