Great set. Ineresting enough figure. Great repaint on the vehicle.
Why is everyone saying that Sandstorm is the guy that Zartan kills? Where did this originate? It wasn't in the movie. Zartan kills a nameless card (hence the RoC Zartan figure) and a desert nomad wanderer. So where does it become "Zartan killed Sandstorm"? Really? I'd like to to know where this got started. Curious to find out. Can use more desert themed figures, don't have enough of 'em.

Looks like a cool set; will definitely pick it up.
I think the Zartan killed Sandstorm theory came about because the upcoming Zartan figure includes a Sandstorm disguise. Tie that into the soldier he killed/impersonated in the movie and I'd imagine thats where it comes from. Personally, I don't follow that line of thought, but I do like the fact that we will be getting an unmasked Sandstorm head with the new Zartan. |

Just wondering if I missed something or if people made a leap.

I like the desert RAM. As for Sandstorm, the only problem i really have with him, which is the same I had with Shipwreck seeing they share parts, are the legs. I just don't like the sculpt.

I'll have to look for the picture, but I could have sworn at the Joe convention that the card with the Zartan figure said it included a Sandstorm disguise. Personally, I wouldn't just assume such a thing, so I know I read it somewhere.

Boy, it cannot be stated enough times how awesome the box art for these new releases are. They make me want to buy these!
I also dig the Kamakura repaint as Sandstorm. Nice color combo. The direction that Pursuit of Cobra is going in is brilliant. While I love the 25th era versions, PoC has allowed the designers free up their conceptions of these characters and take them in interesting directions.
