Hasbro Combat Heroes

Okay, so i might be the only one that liked the ARAH Combat Heroes. I picked up the Beach Head/Serpentor to give to my son. I picked up the BBQ and SS which are two really cool CH. I picked up the Canadian Shipwreck/Crimson Guard thanks to a Tanker.

I really like the ARAH style CH but not so much the ROC CH. But today I saw a picture of a 2010 SW Galatic Heroes At-At. Holy Cow, why can't Hasbro make some really cool Joe vehicles (USS Flag, Tomahawk, Ghost Hawk, Skystriker). Cobra vehicles (HISS tank, Water Moccasin, Rattler).

I know the answer because SW is bigger and does more $ales than G.I. Joe, but if they make all these cool SW vehicles it would be neat if they could do the same treatment with Joes. My son would love to have a Combat Hero size Skystriker

I also liked the ARAH Combat Heroes. Currently have them displayed alongside my Terror Drome.

It would be cool to see some Joe vehicles in the Combat Heroes scale, but like you said SW has better sales then Joe. Hopefully the Renagades series will be popular enough with kids & Hasbro will revist the idea of Combat Heroes styled Joes.

I liked them, but they always got pushed to the bottom of my list for other items I wanted. However, I was able to pick up Wave 1 at Walmart on clearance.

I just recently started picking them up. I think they're OK. They will get a shelf all to themselves. I still won't pay full price yet.

I've got all 3 waves and love them. I had forgotten about the walmart exclusives and I'm very sad as I need those!

I like my wave 1 & 2 of these guys. Never did feel like paying scalper prices for the 3rd wave though.

The Imaginext toys serve pretty well as Joe playsets and vehicles. They have a new carrier for 44.99 that would make a great Flagg. The Batman jeep makes an unbelievable Stinger. I believe it was Hantei that figured out that the RoC "Rapid Roller" Hiss tanks work pretty well as a Combat Hero tank once you remove the driver. (They are easy to find on clearance these days too). There was a Captain America helicopter for the Super Hero Squad that is an almost perfect Fang Helicopter. The Imaginext Batcave makes for a nice Cobra base.

Hasbro may have moved on from this line, but look around at Playskool and Imaginext and even the Superhero squad and Galactic Hero lines and you may find vehicles and playsets that will work quite well.
