The first thing in mind was the figure in it when I saw this set.
The vehicle is the same as the Mole Pod, just a bit different in colors, this came with Volcano colors effect. its got a brown body and a black drill, so now we have 3 different pod from this RoC line, the silver pod from the wave 1, the black pod from the TRU exc. set, and this brown one. Overall its just a different color tone. the Volcano Viper comes with a rifle, and a helmet/ gas mask that connected to the tubes on his vest, this is the reason for me to get this set. its a reused of an Ice Viper lower body and arms, torso and head from MARS Trooper, with a great vest and new helmet/gas mask design. the outfit got a bit shiny silver and brown colors, and its quite good tone color for this figure. the helmet attached by a hose with one of the tubes that can be put on or off of his body, got 2 other hose that should be attached to other 2 tubes in his chest and back. but because of his vest, this figure couldn't sit / fit into the vehicle cockpit, another flaw for a vehicle set, too bad because its a great figure that should have a great vehicle to fit in..

Thanks for taking the time to review this! I agree with you 100%
The vehicle is a pass but the figure is a must! Way to go Hasbro, you got me to get another one!

I have 4 of these on preorder.
The vehicle is meh. I like having a little squad of them. But the figure is awesome. My favorite RoC figure this year. |

Figure is awesome but IMHO the vehicle, as small as it is, is not worth the price of this set. I got one from the TRU Attack on the PIT set and it's alright, but lacking in many areas.

I think the first mole pod was better than this one which I have no interest in. But the figure is cool because of his excellent gear. That is going to be a $15 figure...sigh.... "For trade - Mole Pod"

I wish they would have repainted the figure and released it single cared. A purple Volcano viper would look awesome. |
