I actually don't mind it
Sure it could look better but most of the ROC line has some sort of gimmick. I could see a re-tooled version being released down the line with out the gimmicks Is it just me or does anyone else think this jet has been designed with Marvel Universe in mind aswell as GI Joe? I see a repackage as a Blackbird (with a Wolverine repaint of course) in the future of that mold to go into the Marvel Universe line |

You know the sad thing is the designers wanted to build a bigger night Raven infact there plans were to make it allmost 3 times the size of this but do to the hasbro higher up's and cost they were forced to make what we now see today. I talked to one of the designers today and he wants an og remake more than anyone else but for right now we have to settle on this.. He did say that it is posible to see a remake of the vintage night raven thats geared more to the fans later on. Infact he was telling me that this kinda stuff happens all the times.. He said that at the hasbro offices there is a 12 foot flagg prototype that they built long ago but due to size they made the 7 1/2 foot flagg.. Not only that the new mobile pit was originaly 4 feet tall but to big and would of cost way to much.

I do have to admit though the more i look at this the more I am liking it.. If only it had wheels that moved. :( Anyways I might buy a couple more when they come out.

I am sure I will get atleast one if I see it on the shelves here. I wouldn't pay to get this one shipped from Overseas
The non-rolling wheels is not very good at all and according to GeneralHawks above post it does sound like this could have been done as a cost saving item |

it wouldnt have cost that much but hasbro knew that anything over 100 bucks people arent willing to shell out for it especially in this day n age. i think these things dont cost nearly as mcuh as the companies like to claim they do and they always ciute "costs increases" when they raise prices when in trith it is probably more so the execs wanna buy their secret girlfriends a new jag or something.
