Mutha Puss Buckets! When they said toward the end of the name reveals that there were going to be a bunch of Retros I got all excited that retro Snake-Eyes v2 might finally come out this year. Nope, suck it fan boy. Road Pig, Raptor and the Claw look fun. Rats.

Right, it didn't even have working electronics.
But at the very least they had some kind of show-ready version of the Rattler to display on day 1, which is a good sign.

Man the Rattler is getting backed quickly. With over 6000 backers already, this should be funded by the morning. I honestly wonder if it will hit all is the unlocks before the end of the weekend. Honestly, given how well it’s been executed I wouldn’t be surprised if it hits 18,000 by Sunday which is complete madness.

I want to get a better look at the open-mouth sculpt. Maybe looks a bit meaner. I still think the Classified sculpt takes strong cues from the ARAH figure who kind of has a pudgy, dough-boy face. It’s the original card art that makes him look more badass. The original figure, he looks more like a doofus.

They teased retro snake eyes v2 TWICE in the fanstream. Especially at the end. In the last two shots.

Naw mayne, Stasi needed to be a part of this campaign. We all what we could have lived without in this HasLab.

Can somebody who's more knowledgeable about these sort of things please explain to me why a rando Rattler pilot wasn't a stretch goal in this campaign?

There's a reason why RAVEN wasn't a part of this campaign.

I sure wouldnt be opposed to that idea either .. unless they think the night raven isnt too big i mean the khetanna is over 4 feet long and its wide and i think 18? tall . The box by itself is humongous the night raven could be 4? long wingspan of 42? 2 man cockpit inlcude the drone give us a strato viper a raven and a ground crew member and a fuel cart or something and that could be an easy haslab . I would buy it for $400

Raptor is a lot better after seeing him in more photos and up close promo shots. I grabbed a Marvel Legends Angel off of BBTS though bexause I am going to repaint those and try them on Raptor. I think he'll be perfect then. I love all the detail on him like the big jewel necklace, the tattoos, the talons on his boots.

I think the only reveal today that felt a bit meh to me was the SB and TG 2-pack. Probably because they're just repaints I guess, but they didn't wow me like everything else today did.

I assume we will see Wave 18 revealed as final production samples and pre orders in 6 weeks at Pulse Con. Pulse Con will probably be where we see renders for Wave 19 (Blowtorch, Footloose, Frag-Viper and ???).

[Spider5800]

Hmm. Not super excited with what they showed this year, unfortunately. No space for the Haslab, and not a fan of most of the new characters they showed off. Leatherneck and Zandar looked good, at least.

Saw on the main page the Transformers collab Triple T/Kup mentioned, but I can't find anything about it, are they saving it for the Transformers reveals?

Thats how i feel about ARAH destro ver1 his card art was crazy he had huge biceps barely a neck he was stout and built like a shit brick house or a brick shit house .
the figure was a let down compared to the card art , classified destro is more lanky and tall but still built reminds me a lot of the retro card 4? version from years ago ..
