Agree with a few sentiments expressed here:
- Duke and Serpentor seem smaller scale than ARAH. Not just Slaughter, but Troopers as well. - ARAH accessories should fit - helmets and backpacks. Super7 is a company that prides itself on direct targeting of nerds and collecters - us. Fatal Fluffies? Ramar? Those are meant to appeal to people who remember a cartoon 40 years plus after it aired *and* also still buy the toys. If we're buying ReAction+ O-Rings now, stands a chance we also have some classic O-Rings. We want to mix and match, to put accessories (accessories I need not remind y'all we are *not* getting in the ReAction+ packages) on our figures. For a company that prides itself on nerd appeal, they're coming up short in this line in a few surprising ways. Their beancounters can justify razor thin margins (laffo) for the skinflint approach to accessories, but there's no monetary reason the figures aren't compatible with classic backpacks and helmets. This line should be home run after home run, and it feels like sacrifice flies instead.

I'm still annoyed the ARAH backpacks don't fit.
I got so excited to toss my old JUMP pack on Cover Girl and yup - didn't fit. That said...perhaps Hasbro simply isn't letting them make these compatible? Just like they may be the ones dictating only Sunbow, DIC, and comic designs and no ARAH designs in these? Like how Disney makes their own 3.75 Star Wars figures but they aren't exactly the same as Hasbro's, and apparently, Hasbro does NOT have access to those molds (at least this has been said in regards to Disney's superior Droid Factory 4-LOM, when people have asked for it in TVC). |

Have you guys found these in the toy aisle or in the "collectors area" of Target. I'm yet to even see a peg for these.

I'm taking another shot at finding them tonight when I'm out but figure at this point the initial shipments are cleaned out entirely in my area. |

Hopefully Super7 will start making accessory packs like they have for the GIJoe Ultimates figures. Just don't lock them away behind a preorder and limit them, if it's lots of nice generic weapons and backpacks and we start getting greenshirts and blueshirts, I'm gonna need lots of gear for them.
Heck I need some alternate gear for the figures we already have. Theres so many cartoon options for different weapons for Cobra Commander they could dig into, and they could almost make an entire accessory pack just for Serpentor between the cartoon and the comics. |

I think you'll see different accessories as Super7 moves into inevitable repaints i.e. Cobra Commander with cape and staff, for example. The blueprint is already there in ReAction.
