That was a tough vote for sure. But we do have SE/Timber x 2 and Mutt & Junkyard in the pipeline. AND, the thought we could get an amazing head sculpt with camo and rappelling gear.

Looks like both Joe battles might be blowouts already with Alpine (no surprise) and Hit & Run. Both Cobra battles are very close even though it is early.

It would only be fitting for Alpine to be king of the mountain.

Lenny clearly has his own head canon about Zandar and Zarana and there's not much you can do about it.

And Eels since the biggest mountains on Earth are mostly under the ocean!

Thank you. Polling stations weren't provided by MARS Industries were they?

And, Lenny has a boss who signs his paycheck.

An awesome Joe and an awesome troop builder. We could do worse!

In case anyone's interested, here's last year's results vs what got made/confirmed to get made:
(Note I counted Hawk and General Hawk as the same for simplicity sake)

1st Rounders = 16/32

Sweet Sixteen = 12/16
(All the Joes from this round on)

Elite Eight = 7/8
(Only the Eels didn't)

Final Four and onward = All

Also 4 1st Round losers got made/confirmed:
Chuckles, CoverGirl, Copperhead and Serpentor

*didn't see DarthBrett's post til I was almost done. Posted anyway, because of the other rounds.

I hope it's not the "something different" that everyone else has done. Namely, non-matching twins-in-name-only or not-twins-at-all. :(

I am definitely interested fireWNDCHRGRfly, so thank you for that informative data!

Gives me optimism that our Elite Eight here are already destined for plastic form through 2024 Classified.

Night Viper
BACC
Shockwave
Law and Order

Pretty sure only one of my choices, BACC, will win. I'm ecstatic Shockwave made it this far, but even I'll be surprised if he can beat Alpine. I'm honestly fine with either the Night Viper or Eels, both are cool. I voted for Law and Order mostly just because Hasbro has been killing it with animal figures lately, but don't have strong opinions on them or Hit & Run
