So far I am only in for Starduster and Halo Jumper. But I need to see better pics to make up my mind on the rest. Would like Once and Man CC but don't want to deal with the hassle of con exclusives. I am glad its something like that and not an important character like mindbender.

Not liking that Raptor so far, Hasbro disappointing me again on one of my favorite Cobra characters.

While I'm very underwhelmed with how everything is progressing today, I don't get the hate for Raptor. Is this not what people wanted? We may still get cloth wings included in the set as he is a deluxe price point.

He kinda looks exactly as I expected him to look. I'm also not a fan of the character at all, but I'll scoop him up probably.

I wish communication wasn't so abysmal. The only things we're getting are leaks.

I like to plan ahead. For the love of god let us know when stuff is going up and what's happening, not 10 minutes after the fact. Has anyone even addressed the 11am et stream that never happened?

I just hope the Rattler blows us all away.

[nighthawk]

If Raptor is mass release, I'd probably get him. If he's Pulsecon, I'm not going to fret over it.

The only ones I really want are Starduster (sadly a Pulsecon exclusive) and the Halo Jumper.

I don't have room for the Rattler. However, if the extras are too enticing, I may end up backing it for those and selling off the Rattler if I really have no place for it (or sell older stuff to make room).

Is that a quote from Emily? "The Physical Rattler Drops Then?" Confirmation?

Alot of people were clamoring for essentially MCU Vulture version of Raptor. Definitely not me.

If he doesn't have the classic wings included (like Nemesis Immortal does) then he's a total pass. I want Raptor goofy, not badass.

I agree with you. Kind of underwhelmed. It's always funny to watch these threads play out. I always seem to have the complete opposite opinions on things than the majority does. I love Raptor. To me, he looks great.

What’s his JOE code name? I think if you ascend to sculpting JOE toys for a living you deserve a code name.

I was thinking GIJOE would save my wallet this season but then Marvel Legends went and killed it with the mini sentinels and the deluxe Kang in his time chair.
