I know that there have been threads already regarding what vehicles we will see this year, but I thought I would ask a slightly different question.
If you wish, you can include vehicle choices in the topic, but I was wondering what you think the "plan" is for the rest of the year. I, for one, think that Hasbro is going to stick with smaller vehicles and a figure to keep prices low. I can't say for certain which vehicles, but I would hazard a guess that we will see a variation on the VAMP/STINGER with a new paint job (not original), possibly a SKY HAWK with new paint job, at least one large plane (Rattler? Skystriker? F-18?) and a helicopter (most likely the Dragonfly). Possibly another tank tread vehicle (Armadillo?) and maybe another watercraft. I also believe that we have seen the formula for the vehicles from Hasbro. Vehicle/Fig, mostly new paint schemes and mostly repainted figures. So I would say we are going to get that same formula for the rest of the vehicles with only the most "iconic" colour schemes remaining (ie. blue rattler). What say you guys? |

I think the Star Wars line is the best gauge of what we will see. We will see vehicles in the $9.99 range, and larger vehicles as store exclusives.

I love the V.A.M.P. mold, and hope we see a version of it this year. Another great vehichle along these lines is the Hammer. It was later in the line, but I think it was fantastic, and I would like to see a new version. I think we will see a Trouble Bubble, and hopefully a Ferret. Also I bet we get a new,or remodeled F.A.N.G.

After I buy a couple HISS and a couple AWE's, and throw in a SHARC for Torpedo I will already be happy.

I think we will see the most iconic and popular classic vehicles, whether reissued or new molds based on the originals. I doubt we will see all new designs until the movie hits.

I was just thinking that an awesome addition to the 25th line would be a Tomahawk. It was such a great toy, maybe my favorite vehichle.

There's a lot of stuff I'd like to see get released again in stores but I'm not gonna get my hopes up. A major factor being what molds of the original RAH Hasbro still has that are intact and complete. A good number of everyone's favorite vehicles like the Skystriker and FANG were also lent to other countries like India and were heavily damaged. I mean just look what happened to this year's con vehicle exclusive. One piece of the Mauler's molding components is broken and the whole thing is canceled.
Now there are a few things I DO know Hasbro has from recent re-releases in years past, but as for the stuff that hasn't been heard of since the 80's . . . I'm not holding my breath. |
