I read a few months ago that they were going to be doing Evolution of a cobra 3-packs? I saw the new Star Wars Evolution 3 - packs at Target this week and if the 25th joe version is anything like these then we are in for a troop building treat!
1 x trooper + 1x viper + 1x crimson guard Hopefully this is the formula they use? |

That would be the Senior Ranking Officer 3-pack. The most we know about it is that it'll be a TRU exclusive

I have been very interested in this also. I can't wait until we get some info on this.

How about this: Destro Evolutions: James McCullen (bald unmasked Destro w / tuxedo? Like in Reloaded. This would be the new sculpt for the set) Destro from Cobra (old mold from the 5 pack. Could come with some new paint apps and a chromed silver head) Iron Grenadier Destro (can't think of any upgrades to this right now. Perhaps they could give him a plastic cloak this time around, just for the fun of it). Certainly, head swaps between the last 2 and the first one will be top fun. ...in that same line of thought, we could have a Cobra Commander evolutions set: "proto" CC (like we see in Reloaded, where he's wearing a Beachhead-like mask). battle helmet CC (this time, with chrome face plate and white stripe on helmet piece. Could also come with a soft goods "regal" cloak) hooded CC (perhaps with a few changes in the paint apps. Maybe ditch the gold and replace it with black or red, depending the area). Although... if possible, I'd like a new mold for this, paying tribute to the more realistic hooded version of 91 (talking), which was later repainted in black for Battle corps. This costume doesn't have the trademark "double belt" and has boots over the pants, instead of pants over the boots :p ...and so on aw forget it. Too much of a fan-wank that is.

Sorry for the double post... but here's the obvious one:
Storm Shadow Snake Eyes Kamakura (?) you know this to be true.

Pro: I love the idea of those three key army builders in a single boxed set. It would be a literal dream come true for army builders. Con: I don't want to have a second mortgage on my house...

Not to mention the headaches trying to find them. Especially only being at one retailer. Man it's gonna suck. |

I read on the Rebel Scum oard from someone who was posting and seemed to be "in the know" that at least one of them is Cobra Commander, which would be a tad lame since it'd probably be a repack of Helmet/hood/armored.
I can't recall if it was rumor or just hypothesized that Hawk might get one.

It wouldn't surprise me if Hasbro put yet another CC repaint in an otherwise ideal army building set. How many more CC variants do we need? After the battle armor version they should be done unless they want to do the "unmasked".
