Question: Here we have a movie figure called "Eel." We've had an Eel in the modern era line that resembled the Eel from the RAH line and we're getting a repaint in the Target exclusives. Two different figures called Eel.
Hasbro stated that we wouldn't get a classic Cover Girl because they didn't want people to be confused when the movie Cover Girl was released. They changed RAH Ripcord's name because of this as well. How is this any different? I think the whole Roadblock/Heavy Duty thing is WAY more confusing that two Cover Girl figures could ever be. |

How so? Heavy Duty is English, Roadblock is American.
Heavy Duty is in the movie and uses some kind of rotary machine gun, and Roadblock is in the old comics/cartoons and uses a Browning. Heavy Duty replaced Roadblock in the primary commercial, Roadblock replaced Rock and Roll in the primary commercial. Easy as pie. So is it Marvin Hinton with a new name? Lamont Morris who was the RAH Heavy Duty? or Hershel Dalton the movie Heavy Duty? That pie ain't so easy now, is it? ;)

Don't really matter who heavy duty is. He will be a shelf warmer anyway.

I just love that movie Heavy Duty has "HD" emblazoned all over him in neon green. What were they thinking there, I wonder? Is it so nobody confuses him with Roadblock? Is it so he doesn't forget his own code name?
