I found 2 snake eyes this morning. No baroness.
And even though I've never met sbartek...I feel he's a good dude. Maybe someone I could enjoy a dip in a hot tub with

Sbartek strikes again. He hooked me up with a Retro Hiss, with some extra effort on his part. Thanks to a great tanker. I enjoyed some time this Sunday afternoon and put it together. (The one on the right is my childhood one).

Thank you for the props! Glad you enjoyed piecing it together. Takes me back.

Ok, well using that poster as a blueprint for individual carded figures, then at least Hasbro is on the right track with the character listings. That's the 1982-1985 listings. Plus, the amount of figures they have on the poster does equal out to 17 waves of 3 figures (although I'd be surprised to see Tomax and Xamot carded individually).

My concern, though, is seeing that they have no issues reusing a terrible sculpt like "Screaming" Duke, it just makes me think that we are going to get a lot of 25th sculpts. Unless, Hasbro has a trick up their sleeve, I'm sure Flash and Tripwire will be that same 25th body with the short arms.

Also, it makes me wonder what vehicles will be released? If they stick to the 1982-1985 theme, I am sure that we could see:
VAMP w/ Clutch
MOBAT w/ Steeler
Stinger w/ Driver
Rattler w/ Wild Weasel
Water Moccasin w/ Copperhead
Snow Cat w/ Frostbite

But, given that they will probably release all 3 Dreadnoks, I'd be willing to bet that they will somehow release Zartan, but how? Also, I wonder if there is any way that they could release Hawk and Grand Slam with some kind of vehicle?

Just got back from Wal-Mart - saw the Awe Striker and Hiss tank. I almost snagged one of each but resisted the compulsive urge. The Hiss Driver does look great though so I may end up adding one more Hiss tank to my Hiss Army down the road - especially if they end up in clearance.

The pegs for the retro figs were all empty however.

I could use a modern MOBAT, Rattler, and Snow Cat so let's hope so!
