As I've stated before, I didn't get into Joes until '86, so the Vamp, Trouble Bubble, Hiss, and Ram were way gone by then. However, I think having a Vamp, esp. with that super awesome Clutch, is my favorite. I can't *wait* to have the Original 13 alongside the Vamp and Ram.

I have loved the original BAT design from when I was a kid, and every 'improved' version since has been farther away from that, and thusly less cool in my estimation.
Also the biggest fear I had was that Hasbro would save a few bucks, mold wise, and just pop a BAT head on Dukes body or some crap.
Neither of these horrors came true.
the 25th anniv. BAT v1 is a figure of pure love.
No remoldings (that I can tell)and better articulation (does anyone know if the grippy claw works?) make for a troop builder to end all troop builders.
Personally, if they had radically changed his look, or accessories, I would'nt touch him.
Period.
Is exactly why I am collecting Crimson Sabotage CG's instead of the CRAP 25th ones.
That 'hoodie' with a hockey mask skulpt is 110% pure unadulterated ugly.

i was referring to the "new" vehicles being released that are practically identicle to their ARAH counterparts...see for yourself...   |
