You know, I remember back when Alley Viper was just a custom...
Of course so was Sci-Fi, Airtight and a Royal Cobra-La Guard. But there's a chance... a little teeny itty bitty one... |

Yeah, they've been doing that for years now.

Those are actually two figures I'd like to see redone with Cobra Blue as their base color. I'm not a big fan of the ca. 1990 "taste the rainbow" Vipers.

Never say never......
I had a long talk with a few Hasbro employees and this is the jist of the conversation: No plans right now for those two BUT one guy on the team wants to see all the Vipers made. If Alley does well (7 packs) then they will try and add a Viper hear and there. Maybe in 2-3 years we will have these. Also the card art is only shelved, not retired. They want to use this again when the time is right. The last part of the conversation was about paint schemes. They were limited on what they could or could not do but once the movie dies down expect more classic decos on our figs. They also want to add new figs such as Footloose to the mix and once they are out, we will see new schemes latter on. |

Will believe it when I see it on sell on WS_TOYS in quantities of more then 10 available....

They also say time heals all wounds. Wish I had a crystal ball to see twenty years into the future and wouldn't army build something I only later wouldn't have blown the money on.
I agree with keeping some consistency in colors. Much easier to take a viper or blue shirt squad and just arm them up with Marauder John RPGS, MGs, etc instead of needing as you say taste the rainbow variety of viper colors. I just want somewhat realism in this sci fi fantasy world put upon us..LOL. |
