I'm curious would anyone else buy a Re-tooled HQ from 1983?
There is a lot of space in the original, where Hasbro could add lights and sounds or other cool changes! I would love cartoon accurate lights and sounds! You could hide the electrical parts in the hollow under the front wall & generator assembly. I would love them to make better use of the available space. How about a Map Room, like in the cartoon?! How about a roof, with more gun emplacments?! I would pay up 150$ if Hasbro did it like the new Millenium Falcon! Last edited by IronMan76; 10-04-2008 at 01:23 AM.. |

I would get one if I had the space and cash but I don't have either right now.

i would buy an updated hq. i have two of the originals and i think they are fine without bells and whistles to be honest. i rather they update the jail and the computer console area, than see lights and sounds. that's a little too 93/94. i don't know the status of the molds though, i have no idea if it can be done. i have a hunch it's in the works or being considered at least.

I have the original and would definately pick up a new one!
Just please, no lights or sounds. I would however, like to see molded computers, better jail cell and a lot more detail and removable panels and such all over the place. Actual rifle racks instead of notches in the wall would be awesome! |

I would definitely pick up a retooled one, but I also wouldn't want money going into making sounds and lights. Just extra detail, stuff like Shogi said.

I sold mine due to lack of space, and I hate simply storing stuff away. I probably would not buy one, but I hope they do for you guys. I like the component/piecing playsets idea others have come up.....if they sold it in 3 or 4 pieces with a vehicle or couple of figures I may actually get it for the vehicles or figs they would pack them with--twisting my arm sort of.

Like everyone says, leave out the lights and sounds. Aside from that a new HQ is something I have been hoping for along with items like the battle stations.
Major Wolf mentioned in another thread the idea of smaller pieces to make up a larger base. This would be a good affordable way to make a base happen. |

I don't mean stuff Like "Sound attack" crap.... I was thinking something like the accurate sounds that they put in the Star Wars and Star Trek toys from the 1990s.
