I voted:
Night Viper BACC Alpine Hit N Run I think it comes down to Alpine vs the Commander, but the two that would be most ideal to see in Classified I think, for their purely toyetic properties and load outs (thinking back to the hits of this line thus far) would be Hit N' Run and Night Viper. Slice's Hit N Run custom demos the potential for that action figure in Classified, and an upscale, Classified take on the ME Retaliation version of Night Viper would be: pure gold Jerry! |

BACC Alpine Law & Order I bummed where the final four landed, but I'm holding out hope Battle Armor CC will win it all. |

No guarantee that this pattern will repeat itself, but hopefully it's a rough indicator of what we're getting. At least it's fun to think so. I'll be interested in seeing how this years tournament results matche up with what gets made/confirmed in the coming year.

Regardless, this bodes well for the Elite Eight this year. I think the only one of these that doesn't have at least a chance of getting announced soon is BACC, and I base that solely on the fact that we know classic CC is getting released at some point already from the HISS tank mold, and I would assume they want to space those out a little. Which is funny, because it looks like he has a good chance to win it all this year, based on how he's performing against Torch. |

Interesting that only the EEL's weren't made of the Elite Eight, especially since they make perfect sense to do at the same time as Torpedo. They've done the same thing by not releasing a winter-based Cobra character at the same time as Snow Job (they obviously showed that winterized BAT in the background, but no confirmation of when it will release, plus that's an easy repaint rather than a new character). You'd think they'd want biome and/or thematically linked characters in the same wave, just so you'd have a "good guy" and a "bad guy" for that at the same time. Guess Hasbro thinks differently.

What's interesting is how BACC vs Torch is actually a rematch from last year, when Torch smoked (torched?) BACC, with a vote of 139 to 93. This year is looking like it's going to be "Cobra's Revenge". I guess a lot people who want both, figure that it's pretty much a lock where getting Torch anyways, so why not make more noise for BACC. You make a good point of them spacing out the Cobra Commanders, hopefully different year is enough space. Of course there's no guarantee which will be first, I've been holding out a long time for a regular Recondo and that's just a repaint. I figure the Eels up this point have just been slotted out, we have been getting an awful lot troop builders. I'd want Torpedo period, with or without other scuba-divers, but I would hope that Hasbro does think in some terms of giving certain characters some "play friends " Last edited by fireWNDCHRGRfly; 03-25-2023 at 11:07 PM.. |

Eels, BACC and Alpine pulling way ahead of Night Vipers, Torch and Shockwave now. Those are basically over.
Interesting that H&R v L&O is still so close. Thought H&R would blow through that one like all his previous matchups. Never underestimate the appeal of a dog, I guess. |
