I really want that figure, but I have no desire to buy the RHINO, considering I passed on it back when HTS was clearing out the original for like $4. Heavy Metal was one of my favorite RAH figures, and I really like this update. But, I see several on eBay w/o accessories and wondered if I could outfit him with some accs from other figures, in particular the Pit Commando. Any pics or links would be greatly appreciated. Yojoe doesn't have it in their archive yet.
Thanks! |

Why no love for the RHINO? It is a great vehicle dude ... looks like the APC in Aliens and has plenty of features. Highly recommended.

Its not so much 'hate' for the RHINO itself, as it is the price tag. $50 for a vehicle that I passed on for $4, with the only difference being the inclusion of a figure that I actually want. If the RHINO hits $30 or less, I'm in. But, for some reason the tards on eBay seem to think they can get $65 plus like $15 shipping for them, and they wonder why they go unsold.

Fair enough. Sorry, I didn't mean to hijack your thread. I own the original DTC version of the RHINO, so I can't comment on your question.

LOL, no worries. If I had it do again, of course I would buy a few of them at $4. But instead at the time I bought a ton of Cobra DTC Troopers and a few R.O.C.C.(down to one now). I just really want the Heavy Metal figure. Heck, if anyone on here just wants the RHINO, I'll pay a fair price for the Rampage and you can have the vehicle at a discounted price.

For the same reason, I bought the RHINO just for Heavy Metal/Rampage. It was on sale for $39.99 a while back.
Though I think this mold and color looks so much better and suited for the Cobra. |

I feel the same way.
50$ is a lot to pay for a vehicle I only kinda want, and a figure I really need in my collection. I still haven't caved in & bought on though. I'm hoping for some great after Christmas deal...
