I like the idea. I have Lobotomaxx don't have Predacon or Carcass but I want Predacon really bad. I love the premise, kind of take Joes into Sci-Fi ore than they were even with Cobra-La. I remember seeing these figures for 25 cents a piece on card at K-Mart like back in what 97-98 ish and passed them up and I kick myself.

I liked the Star Brigade figures/sub team as a kid but remember not being to excited about the Alien figures.

Bring 'em on! I love the sci-fi stuff with an X-Files vibe.

Sorry to change subjects for a moment but would have been cool if the xfiles crossed over with predators and the aliens universe.

Mike Power/ Atomic Man and Bulletman along with Super Joe were largely created to extend the life of the brand and to complete with popular stuff of the day like Micronauts , Mego's superheroes, Six Million Dollar Man and even Star Wars.
For the 1990's it was basically Kenner's Aliens / Alien vs Predator line it had to compete with and Star Wars was again right around the corner, so am sure Hasbro mustve heard rumblings. That said, I remember there was a line from Cobra Commander in the Sunbow cartoon(which frequently used Lovecraftian gods and monsters) during one of his speeches that was something like, "First Cobra will conquer the world and then the universe". And if you can have or forgive GI Joe crossing over with intergalactic transforming alien robots then some of these other ideas aren't so preposterous. |

I wonder how successful the 'if you can't beat 'em join 'em' approach works? |
