I was going to pass on the Mad Marauders 2 pack as that's one of my least favorite sub teams, however I think I might pick it up just to give the extra bird to Raptor when he comes out. Freedom can just do double duty with both versions of Spirit if needed.

It also doesn't help seeing the praise people have said about the set. I'm a sucker for good action figures even if they aren't something normally on my radar. So hearing the good things is the easiest arm twist ever to me..

I see that Hasbro just issued a Cease and Desist to that kickstarter that was doing their own 6" SkyHawk. So I bet an official one is coming soon. (I bet a cease and desist is coming for that Tank with multiple configurations too. You can't just copy Hasbro's IP and think they are going to let you.)

So you can have the guns pointing backward to ward off a pursuer, but the gunner will still be facing forward. I'm sure the electronics restrict them from having the gunner spot rotate 360desgrees but hopefully, they're able to adjust that with the actual production version.

As the previous reply already said - I bet it's due to how the figure fits into the gunner station. Probably lets extended or something... so they wouldn't be able to rotate with the guns. I wouldn't expect it to change. It's shown that way in the launch video.

Video of Lenny showing off the Rattler. We need more of this. It looks so cool and huge when people are actually interacting with it.

I learned a new word today from Lenny - "scarification".

So I deliberately don?t watch the unboxing videos, but seeing this baby in perspective next to Lenny? is anyone starting to get freaked or geeked out about the coming Dragonfly? Just how big it might be when it?s in hand? Someone on here said they were the same length.

Lenny is a BIG dude. The shots with his arms and hands next to the Rattler really put it in perspective. The Rattler is beefy. This video has sold me on backing it more than anything other images or video thus far.

It hasn't gone up and I'm not exactly sure how that's gonna work or when.

Yeah the Fans Hobby Skyhawk is officialy dead.

If it unofficially gets released., it'll be under a different company name, if at all.

Yeah Hasbro kind of had to do that whether they intend to make it themselves or not. Can't just let people use your IP like that without permission, would set too much of a bad precedent.

Not unless you pay them.

It is weird that they have 3 per customer on some items then put a whole new listing for a new pre order and as it is the same product number it stops you from buying the new listing if you already met the previous buyer limit.

I find that almost as annoying as Hasbro Pulse UK not restocking Walmart Exclusives even in markets were they are NOT a Walmart exclusive. yet they do re-stock the Target ones.

Are we not getting any companion sets with the Dragonfly like the hiss fire team and HMS? I guess if we were that we would know about them already?
