It?s a little perplexing to see people complaining about size and scale for something that has not been done before. My mind jumps to the MASS device from the 25th line that everybody thought was great. That is nowhere near scale. The control cubes that came with POD DVD set are not near scale either.
The Haslab Ghost has people raving. This ship will be around the same size but is drawing complaints? No figure, vehicle, playset is perfect but I think it is cool this is being done and looks like it will fit the reaction line just fine. |

If I back this and it does in fact include a bunch of figures, is anyone going to potentially want them? I'll have no use for them.

I think it looks plenty big enough and will be a boatload of fun to play with and have epic Joe versus Cobra battles with! I would have loved to have had this ship when I was a kid in the '80s.

The proportions/details are off because it tries to compromise on size. It also won?t fit in with classic vehicles because of the annimated aesthetic. I think the best thing to do would have been to make a toy that looks vintage that was inspired by the design of the mother ship. It doesn?t need to be bigger, it just needs to be a better item. Embrace the size limitations and take a step to be more creative with it. All of this is gonna be moot when it comes out and is priced at like $500 and doesn?t fund

My issue with it is that it just doesn?t look good.

All of this is gonna be moot when it comes out and is priced at like $500 and doesn?t fund Hard to judge it since there has been no official release of the actual item yet. Those who saw it at SDCC said it looked huge and very detailed externally. If this ends up being only $500 it will be a steal like the TVC Ghost for its size. All we can do is wait for October until the official unveiling and more details come out about it. There are a lot of reasons to be excited about it from the SDCC display and our imaginations.
