the equivalent of walmart is asda which is hit and miss when it comes to exclusives we got the vintage 70s star wars but aside from that ive not seen any other exclusives only got one 8 foot aisle as well which doesnt help. my best bet is probably amazon or an online retailer |

Not going to lie hurts a little seeing the new Baroness and Cobra Trooper for 6 inch. Also someone on Facebook thought maybe this Storm Shadow because it is a single colored plastic. The awesome Ultimate one had two color plastics. The single carded figures are mostly one color plastic thus probably being cheaper. Pretty sure the budget on these is low. All these are just guesses.

Those Special Missions 6" figures are the titties - especially Beachhead and Cobra Trooper. Gives me some more optimism for the future of the retro line - it's nice see Hasbro investing in the brand again.

I wonder if they didn’t use the Ultimate Storm Shadow for this line because he was technically part of the Retaliation line? Is there some legality with using anything associated with the film for any other line? It really is the perfect classic ARAH Stormy and a shame it’s not him in that bubble. Anyone have any insight into this legal stuffs?

Catching up - I've been on a family road trip. My thoughts and reactions:
1. Really? This is what all the anticipation has been for? 2. Why does Storm Shadow look like he's in pajamas? What happened to Ultimate Storm Shadow? Why in the world would they release THIS, when they have such a better version they could release? 3. Snake Eyes doesn't even match the card art - or v1. How is that retro? 4. Is that a new head on Baroness? I can't tell. 5. Is that a new head on Crankcase? I can't tell. (still doesn't have his proper helmet though) 6. Hiss Driver is the one good part about the whole reveal. Quote:

I think that the Crankcase head looks a lot like it could be the Club’s FSS Topside. But what do I know, I just might be trying to find hope they’ll be able to use the FSS Tiger Force Roadblock head. Would love to see it with the helmet off (there already existed a more accurate helmet from the dollar general duke).
Hasbro did use the FSS Hit n Run head, so the precedent is already there.

I'm doubtful now that I'm comparing pics.
