Hawk...not Duke

Okay, so far we've gotten a look at a few of the new figures for the movie coming out.
When I first saw the new movie figures, I thought: "meh..pass". But then I looked at them a couple more times and saw some of the others comments on how, for example, the "Hawk" figure might make a good Flint figure. And while I am not for this new movie, I started looking at some of the other movie figures as possibilites for other characters. This might give some of these figures some potential...maybe even enough to get me to buy a few... So here are the figures we have seen and what characters they might be best used as: Hawk - Flint maybe a higher ranking Flint Duke - I saw someone say Spearhead. I like that idea. Baroness - well, Im thinking we might want to leave this one. The only other possibility would be Chameleon. (who?) But if she isnt better than the M.E. one, I'll pass. Hard to tell yet. "Ripcord" - Black Ops Stalker? Heavy Duty - well, there really isnt much option there I guess. I like my 25th Roadblock, so... HD is all that's left. Add to this list and give us your ideas even if they are the same! And maybe I'll edit my list if I like your ideas better!

A bunch of the Duke figures with different heads would make a great set of modern soldiers.

I'm going to use 'em as "new" Joes to fill out the ranks.
For instance, I used the unmasked Beachhead from the comic pack head as a new Joe that I created, a Marine Force Recon. So that's what I'm going to use the movie guys for, new Joes. With some kitbashing, they'll make great additions to my current Joeverse. I like the idea of using Duke for Spearhead, that's awesome.

I just thought of another idea...
Maybe the "power suits" could be like a Cobra Cyborg Unit? Though I have only see the "Ripcord" figure thus far in that outfit. Just a thought.

i dont think i'm gettin these. i just received the 2 new 5 pack sets an they are trash an anyone who hasn't gotten these, save ya self 60 bux!! garbage. an to me that damn viper , it sure the hell looks like that cobra commander head to me how garbage is that. i'm a lil pist over this .. an the movie toys would be cool for customs, but i dont think i want any of them at all an im not spendin money to make a new guy!. i like the the hummer but there are stuff on it i dont dig. like shootin missles an i hate sounds. it seems alot of these toys have sounds an shootin projectiles.. i'm just gonna continue to buy the classics, if they stop im done.

LOL. Nice!
That's about what I said when I saw all of the new vehicles! Yeah, in the end, I doubt I will get many of these. MAYBE Duke to be a Spearhead and most likely Covergirl since we dont have one yet in the 25th/Modern lines.

I would've replaced Heavy Duty with Double Blast since Roadblock can not be used.

I think TTT meant, that'd they'd be more custom fodder for him to make stuff to sell and make money.
