I'm really looking forward to the Short Fuse, he was one of my favorite O13. (some of his lines in the cartoon were great!)
Other than the Destro (NOT AGAIN!!) I like the figures they chose for the set.
Any takers on when Zap will show up? |

Your right the display tag on by the Rattler and Conquest said August I said I wasn't sure if Sept/Oct. was the correct month and with Hasbro who knows if they won't hold them back till Nov. or early Dec. to get more of a Christmas buying rush on them. | |

Posts: 986 | it would be totally fair of anyone to call me a sketpic for saying this, but what's this christmas buying everyone is talking about? These are Joe exclusives, I really doubt they'll sell to very many "regular shoppers." It's going to be fans like us (if we're lucky), people buying them for us or our kids (if we're luckier), and second hand resellers (if we're unlucky) getting the lion's share of them. I honestly don't think it would matter if they released these close to Groundhog's Day, the same people are going to buy them - and probably do so within a few days of their release. |

Instead, Target ended up blowing through the entire stock with the quickness. Next thing you know, they ended up on ebay for double to triple the price.
Sign me up for 2. I love these.
