Is there any rumor/expected date Ramar and the Fluffy will go live on super7.com?

Wonder what wave 3 will be. Given this wave had two really out there choices, plus a figure that was rumored to be in the last ReAction wave (Serpentor), maybe the other missing rumored figure, Diana?

Waves 1 and 2 had two A-tier characters (Snake Eyes and Cobra Commander, Duke and Serpentor). Going by the 2002 relaunch and the 2007 relaunch to see what Hasbro considers A-tier, I would say to expect Destro or Storm Shadow for Cobra, Scarlett and Gung Ho/Roadblock for Joes. |

Zartan's color-changing gimmick may have been seen once or twice in the cartoon, but wasn't really a mainstay of his character there. |

Do any plastic manufacturers still make that special color-changing plastic Hasbro used in the '80s and early '90s? If it's not readily available, I doubt Super 7 will try. No subsequent versions of Zartan from Hasbro have changed color.

One thing that I don't know if everyone ( not you, Josh Z, your wording indicates you get it) understands is that Hasbro does not make their own plastics; they come from a vendor. I think that's how Zartan's gimmick happened, a plastic maker went to Hasbro, saying "we have a plastic that can do this." Hasbro didn't commission it. And if no vendor makes it, Hasbro can't do it. |

Around 2002 at work I got some water bottles that turned color in the sun. "Pool Cool," was the theme, if the UV turned your bottle, you needed sunscreen. That was the last time I saw plastic that turned color in the sun.

Although it's executed in a very different way than it was in the 80's, the Classified "Master of Disguise" Zartan also changes color. |

Diana, maybe. We know they developed some Viper parts for the Mothership. I'd expect that eventually. Since we know with Ramar/FF they're not afraid to do non-standard figures, maybe a 4" tall Big Lob? I know the Collector's Club did a version, but an all original, retail version would be nice.
