Great idea! I like v2 Shockwave, though not nearly as much as his v1 design.

I bet we'll eventually get both Rip-It and a mainline single carded regular HISS Driver.

Is anyone else concerned that the Retro leak of "Gargamel" is the recently revealed Recondo instead of the assumed Cobra Commander?

I mean it probably is now that we have the context of recondo being a retro release.

But I wouldn?t worry. We?re gonna get a ARAH Cobra Commander

Hasbro just took payments for Tunnel Rat, Low-Light, and Firefly, woohoo the collection is about to get lararrggger!!!

I know he's coming. Just don't want to be tempted to open the one that comes with the Hiss lol

Woah wait, the regular Recondo is gonna be one of the retro cardbacks? �� Why they couldn't have just done the O-Lines accurate figures in a box like everything else is beyond me, those cardback packages suuuuuck


Edit: Also I thought the "assumed" Cobra Commander was already a definite thing since he was shown off at comic con with the hiss tanks?

Do you dislike the aesthetic of the cardback package style or the cardbacks themselves...presumably because of the flimsiness? If it's the latter, they assured everyone that the retro cardbacks have been changed, so that they are thicker and sturdier. If it's the former, then consider that Retro Gung-Ho and Retro Snake Eyes are about as "O-Lines acccurate" as that Recondo, and they weren't in boxes, either.

You need to pay attention.

The CC shown with the Hisstanks is the one that comes with the Hisstank. Mickey Mouse logo.

They haven't confirmed that a regular version with normal logo will be released on a retro card, but we all kinda know it will be.

Sorry if somebody already said this but my money is on us getting a Night Force Quick Kick with a more modern costume in the not-too-distant future. I'm glad we are also getting this version.

Not sure what the going rate for these figures is these days, but this liquidation site has heavily discounted Viper 3-packs ($50), Python Patrol BATS ($12), and Tiger Force Outback ($12). I've ordered from them before and never had an issue.
