I've been looking at a RoC Pitt playset online. I passed when it was 100 bucks at target a few times but it's showing up online loose for much less.
Is this a good playset? It looks like a better version of the mobile command center, I never really liked the tackelbox look of that one. So I've passed on it many time. I've also seen some customs of the PoC command center turning it into a cobra command base that looks pretty cool. So show me some pics of your customs, and tell me what this item is worth to you. Should I have bought it for 100 bucks? |

No, it is not worth $100 bucks. Maybe $49.99, but it just doesn't really have much play value as a vehicle OR a base. It was a nice attempt, but way overpriced!

I picked it up on clearance for around $30. Many will say I payed too much but I am a somewhat completist. Glad I picked it up just so I have it and am not sitting wondering if I should have grabbed it, but it is not great. If you can find if for $25-30 I would say go for it. Especially if you have kids who play with your G.I. Joe toys b/c there is a good bit of play value. My friends son loves it when they come over.

What about for custom fodder? Remember the concept stuff we saw at joecon or toy fair a few years back?
Cobra needs a good base I think. |

It would have worked better as that Cobra missile base concept they showed off.
As a PIT? Awful. Only good thing about it, from what I heard at least, was the ping pong table. |

Its a mess.
Might have been good as one or the other but its not the price they were asking good. Even as custom fodder I'm having issues making it something worthwhile. Last edited by Owner of a Lonely B.A.T.; 03-07-2013 at 11:32 PM.. |

The pics of it all closed up I think looks ok.like a giant landing raft or something.

I was gonna pass but one of the last ones in my town made its way down to $50 AND it was still sealed so I pulled the trigger.
I like it because it holds a lot of figs for loose display/battle scene. Not something I'd want to move around or mess with, it's staying where I parked it
