Lifeline_MD: The pics are small, but the MCC looks somewhat decent.
I'll wait for final pics to judge, but it looks to be the first decent vehicle to come out of this line. Freedom: LOL! I have to say I'm a little disappointed in The Pit. Especially for $100. I'll wait until I see a better pic. *sigh* Shoe leather's not that tasty...lol
I'm getting off Hiss Tank for a while, because this is really going to set the haters off. paulpratt: The Pit looks like a houseboat glued to the top of a stripped down rolling thunder. Odd. Not what i'd expect, but we'll see what she looks like when there isn't a huge light glare over the paper.
Nice handle on the night raven.  Oh well. The plane is cool and if it lands, the handle folds up. misfit1015: Looks like the Night Raven has been ruined.....The pic seems to show a pistol grip on the bottom. Lifeline_MD: there's no guarantee that its 100 bucks yet. If it is, I need better pictures to decide rob0213: Don't know about the Pitt. Not what i expected. I would like some better pics.
Thanks for the info! Freedom: Quote:

Wry1: PIT might be cool but there is too much shiny badness in the way, need better pix to have any real say, thanx though! rob0213: Electronic sounds and phrases? Oh boy.
I do like the Mole Pod and the Raven (even with the grip). I thought the Cobra SUV was the Scarab? Or is there more than more Cobra SUV? I don't have a problem with a Mobile Command Base, but I just don't know whagt to make of that thing. Cobra Commander: Is that a Snake Eyes Mr Potato Head at the bottom, called "Snake Fries" ? Nemesis_Enforcer: I need better pictures, but so far what I see I'm VERY disappointed. Now I don't feel so bad that I'm piss poor. It doesn't look like I'm missing out on anything good. rob0213: Quote:

Moses: pistol grip or not, I will still plan on getting a Raven. Don't know about the PIT though. I guess we will see better photos this weekend. I would rather see wave 14 than movie toy previews Batmandk02: The money I woulda put toward the PIT.. I will just get me a Joe Headquarters off of Ebay. These lights, sounds and rocket firing crap are becoming out of hand. At this rate.. I could be saving tons of money. Glad I switched to GEICO !!!! A.V.A.C.: i love the raven, but the pistol grip possibility makes me kinda wretch. the pit actually looks promising. i wonder if they'll make a mars playset? SidDarth: Quote:
Originally Posted by darth_henning there's no guarantee that its 100 bucks yet. If it is, I need better pictures to decide | I just rechecked my reports from Hasbro. This item will be in the $120-$150 range considering what Hasbro is charging it's buyers.
I was hoping for a lot more from this vehicle/playset but pictues of the actual item out of the box may help.
Wow! The Raven is small for a plane that is suppose to run almost $50. It doesn't look much bigger than the Rattler.
Joe 12" figures have been lame from the beginning.
The Duke and Heavy Duty figures look like they borrowed their fatigues from the TranFormers movie "Joes". Shocking that they actually have colors outside the grey scale.
The Wayan's figure...say hello to the new RoboCop. Gunzlingr: I am underwhelmed by the Pit. Tho I got a kick out of Snake Fries. Still like the figures tho. Gatchaman: I new the movie line was going to probably be bad.......but this is down right offensive. People can say what they want about it being for kids but as I remember it, I loved the 1982 - 1985 when I WAS A KID! My 4 year old son loves all the old GI Joe toys I have. So it being for kids is no excuse as far as I’m concerned. It's garbage. And I'm not going to try and convince myself otherwise just because it's "GI Joe".
Sorry to come off mean and all but I am just very disappointed. They could have been so cool. They could have brought GI Joe back to being big time again. Tuscan: They sure don't make them like they used to.
BTW, wouldn't those suits rip their bodies apart? SidDarth: Quote:

BTW, you know they're playing GEICO Horse at the NBA All-Star Game this weekend. camper: Quote:

makes me feel better about the Mighty Muggs I bought. krunk viper: having a handle isnt bad. the VvV Thunderwing has a fold up handle. i LOVE that thing. best GIJoe toy ever made! Omegawrath: Okay, there are no treads on the pit. Those are wheels.
We need to start properly debriefing our field intel agents. Troynos: I like the PIT. I think it looks pretty cool all closed up. Opened up, not so much, but at least it'll be good for displaying.
So there's a handle on the Night Raven, as long as it folds up, what's the big deal? Makes it easier to hold it to fly it around.
Like the Duke, Heavy Duty and Ripcord figures. xhairs: Looks like ill be passing on the pitt. rob0213: So is the Pit in the movie mobile like this thing? I thought the Pitt was under ground.
This is the Pitts. TheLongestDay: :/ tried to get a better look:
 MAJOR BLOOD: Does Storm Shadow have KEDs on? Lifeline_MD: doesn't look too bad. Still not sold. slim19722: I need a new mobile command center, since I sold off my ROCC and the PIT will make a nice replacement. I like what I see so far. quintonarledge: The new Pitt figure is awesome!
 UltraPrime: Pit isn't what I was expecting. Really need good pics to judge. This thing will probably retail at at LEAST £100 in UK, which sucks ass.
But Snake Fries! Oh yes! My collection of Potato Heads needed this lol gilborrego: Each figure comes with Projectile Launcher!
I will now go and projectile vomit! statesofeuphoria: That Snake Fries is so mine! GGPiKE: Saw these a few hours ago. I'm liking what I see! The mobile headquarters is an interesting take . . . reminds me of those vehicles on GOW2, Derricks I think they were. I'm looking forward to seeing this on Saturday! TANK_DRIVER785: i think i might steer clear now
why would they put a handle on the raven sucks!!
if the pit is that much well wait until clearance time
snake fries might be the only one to pick up for me rob0213: ...................................I am gonna army build Snake Fries. RoadShlock: ....I wish I had saved my original Headquarters...... nighthawk: The front of the Pit reminds me of the G.I.Joe General vehicle. quintonarledge: Quote:

Originally Posted by rob0213 ...................................I am gonna army build Snake Fries. | that would be awsome!!! goukisama: Oh yeah F all this stuff. I will not spend a penny on this crap. Just leave to the bargain bins. But then again they did say that this movie would be based on sigma sux than Arah. Looks like it now. Moses: Quote:
Originally Posted by TANK_DRIVER785 if the pit is that much well wait until clearance time | If the PIT only sells at clearance time we can pretty much forget about Hasbro building any more large GI Joe playsets. If it was a classic terrordrome at twice the price, I bet at least half of us that say we would buy one would wait until it clearanced as well. Hasbro/retailers can't win with the larger items unless their margins are absolutely ridiculous. Foolproof: So The Pit is yet another toy that goes from big vehicle to playset that has nothing whatsoever to do with the vehicle it just transformed from. I am glad they at least did the talking/lightup/action feature thing as a separate entity instead of incorporating it into the main figure line. They look like Sigmas. That "Accelerator Suit Duke" looks like Robocop, which isn't a bad thing in and of itself, but motorized running action? I'm still laughing. politicoviper: Meh. $100 for that?
Eccelerator suit duke? Now that is sad. I really hope that isn't something they do with duke in the movie...
Snake fries is all that I need! Will we get a storm shake as well? Zoltron: The PIT looks like the general and a Boat combined.
Panels for the playset? Meh. |
