They take a couple of years to develop some stuff so packaging overlap is quite likely.. even more so on exclusives that could have been designed a long time before things released before them were out already.

I think I really miss the Airborne/Quick Kick / Techno-Viper style of packaging that slightly larger box allowed you to see the contents and have the character art more visible.

Where as a lot of Alpines parts (for example) are not even visible in the smaller box very easily.

I agree and once we got a third style of box, I threw away all boxes which I was saving since they no longer match in any way. I am not sure why I was saving the boxes in the first place but now there really was no point in my mind. LOL.

I will also say it felt good to toss them.

but the door was left open for a MOBAT and Steeler.

I am thinking next years Haslab is a Mobat or Mauler. Than a Cobra vehicle. Is the Bridage layer a Haslab or can that be done for retail? Either it seems to be years off if ever.

Yeah a Bridge Layer probably won't happen in Classified. They could do it as a wolverine reuse like the Ramen one, but they might not either.

What did you use for Roadblock's arms?

I always loved the Bridge Layer but I always thought it was bit light on Bridge. Like it's great to have around in case your team needs to get over a 5ft ditch but otherwise...

I wish it had at least two more segments. or the segments it had were just longer. If updated that would be my biggest want for that vehicle.

If they're alternating Joe and Cobra every year and we already have 2 for the air, I'd think Mauler would be the safest bet. MOBAT is too small for a HasLab imo. They'd probably have to scale the Mauler down a bit like the Rattler to keep the price reasonable.

The torso is tiger force bazooka and then I cut down roadblock's arm to fit into the white sleeve bit. Was kind of annoying to do. Hoping hasbro does a proper one in retro

That's how I always felt. It really was not long enough to span anything substantial during 80's childhood play.

But on another note, I hear folks mentioning a Classified bridge layer every so often but would anyone actually really want one now? It's probably the lamest G.I. Joe vehicle that exists, or so I've always thought since I was a kid. If I was choosing the order of vehicles to be release in Classified, the bridge layer would probably be dead last on that list.
