PICS WERE REMOVED. SORRY.
I grabbed these photos from a blog that was posted in 2007 at ToyBender, and also a few from a convention covered by TNI. So this is probably old news to some.. But to me, I just about fell out of my computer chair when I came across these. Why were these produced but not manufactured? They're flawless. Well the pics that say TNI (big boa, sci fi) could probably use a better paint job. But in my opinion "ALL" the others are beyond marketable, based off some of the figures they have released instead! It sucks when we have like 172391 cobra commanders, snake eye's, and destro's, when these bad a$$ figures could be taking their place. Hasbro needs to tighten up! Oh and apparently because the box office movie is right around the corner. The 25th Anniversary line will soon be put on hold by Hasbro. They say at some point there will be no more released until after the movie. So they can promote the movie and resolute figures.. Blah! Here is the link were I read the article about the 25th line being placed on hold. 2008 JoeCon: Hasbro Marketing: 2008 convention - ToyNewsI.com Last edited by SniperX; 01-12-2010 at 06:13 PM.. |

Wow, I don't remember seeing these before, but it would be a travesty if some of these don't ever get released. I think I've read that the Alley Viper will be released, but the Lifeline, Airtight, Sgt Slaughter, Green Leatherneck, and SciFi really need to be produced. I've seen way better Zarana customs on this board though, so I would hope they take another look at that figure before releasing a Zandar/Zarana 2-pack, which also needs to happen!

Yeah, that TechnoViper looked good. It should be added to the pics at the top post. These customs in most cases show the potential these figs have to be made in the modern era style. Now Hasbro just needs to decide if there is enough demand to warrant the production of them.
