Just received my first of 2 Ram Cycles form China today.
Took these pictures of the box so folks can better read the little blurbs on the side about Pursuit of Cobra. The middle picture states that cobra unleashes its HISS in the Desert so we may see the new HISS in desert camo.

Sorry dude, you shouldn't have paid too much for this. If you wanted a similar figure and cycle you most likely already have the parts to make this set. I think anything that doesn't require any new tooling at all, could still be released but at a much lower price than something else in that same category.

The other two are gonna be flying though. What head does Sandstorm have again? Storm Shadow or Firefly? |

I paid less then retail for it (if they stay 9.99), shipping put the total cost just over 16 total. So I will take 5.50 more then retail to get it a few months early. I want four total as I like the desert them color better then green.
It looks like Firefly's from TRU exclusive head with blue eyes.

Oh, I don't know. A desert-themed variation of an existing vehicle is always welcome as long as the price is right. Are they really going to try and charge $16 though? The package looks a lot smaller, so I wonder if they're going to try and cut costs.

Retail on them is 9.99 for the current wave 2 exclusives at Target. I paid 16 for mine including shipping. At the most they will go back to 12.99 that the wave ones were back in August. However I do not think they will, but you never know.

I can totally see the Range Viper flying off the shelves, but Ace & the glider?

I don't care much for the figure, but the RAM might look nice next to my Desert AWE Striker. When are these supposed to hit retail?
