Except there was a tiger force deco Alpine done in the 2000's new sculpt. The only character that was changed to fit the group in the con sets was Hit n Run who never had a night force version. Tjbang retained his original colors, so I'd say there's a 50/50 chance Hard ball will be in either deco. Hoping for original deco so the FSS spot can be used for a different figure.

Yeah, I was pissed back in the day of the two different PP colors, and not happy about this. Just like they could have corrected the officer and trooper designations they screwed up originally with the 25th and club versions. Oh well....
I think the biggest thing I am trying to factor in is that the club will spend no more money than it absolutely has to on any new molds to close out this year. I can't say I blame them really. Why would they, they won't be able to reuse it again and it would what go back to Hasbro along with any of their tools I guess? I keep hoping for a two pack of WORMS troops to go with the officer, plus the three pack of Cobra night watch women troopers. |

I would be truly, truly shocked if the Club did this. Even before they were about to close shop they would reuse as much as they could, putting out the same figure in multiple deco's. So I'd be shocked if Hardball doesn't come Marauder'ed in the box set and then we'll see him in his classic colors as an FSS figure. Its the Club's modus operandi. Half of the Night Force Con set came out in classic colors in the next FSS, and the Club laughed all the way to the bank.

This wrapping up mindset is also why I think the change in the brochure text from "figures and vehicles" to just "figures" was intentional... going back to the TF helicopter, and maybe before that, they seem to have more difficulty selling through the larger vehicles... I don't think they'll make {larger) vehicles that have the chance of needing to be shipped back to their Dallas warehouse and need to sell them before their license runs out some 180 days after the convention.

Do they have to sell everything by the end of the year, or just stop manufacturing it?
