I guess time will tell if this is a better strategy or if it even makes a difference. Although it's been a year now and a handful of HasLabs and it looks like they are sticking to showing us all the unlocks right off the bat. I will say knowing what they are now and then not getting them sucks! I think I would rather not know what unlocks were until the previous one is unlocked. That way we can't be disappointed when something is shown and not actually unlocked like Arliel Schous (the Wolfman), who was the 3rd unlock for the Cantina set and failed to happen. I do wonder what would happen if they tried using surprise unlocks, by either telling us exactly when the unlocks will happen but not what they actually are; or completely keeping us in the dark and just unlocking them as they happen.

MM Sarge came from Pulse today. I like to have the squad leader, makes them look like a unit. I imagine Mutt and Footloose are in the pipeline. I wonder if they will eventually expand on the Marauders sub team with some new recruits? I think I prefer the Marauders and Night Force scheme to Tiger Force. But TF has to have representation; TF Outback is still one of my favorites of the whole line. And we definitely need the Renegades. I keep waiting for Mercer to be announced already!
Hat on or hat off version?

I would hope mutt/footloose are coming in the next year ..it would be nice to have more members . im actually ready to finish off the 87 movie we already have oamcoco , jinx/falcon And nemesis immortal announced we just need pythona/globulous/big lob some denizens taurus/mercer/reddog and of course HEATHER ? i said that a few days ago about tf we have 9 members from that subteam and 5 from nightforce now ,3 from MM and now sarge . Lets finish the mains from cobra la and get some denizens/noblemen later ..

It seems like Hasbro is using a different approach now with their more recent campaigns where they are showing us everything up front. The unlocks used to be secret until unlocked before on most (if not every) HasLabs. I looked and I believe the TVC Ghost last summer was their first campaign where they decided to show us all the unlocks ahead of time. Maybe the Spirit of Vengeance failure compelled them to try a new strategy?

I like where your head is , but btwn the rancor/EOV those tier unlock reveals were terrible and i wanted both of those .. I realize the wolfman didnt materialize like some had hoped it would but they did make him a long time ago and hes not terrible hes just not very good . I almost backed the Cantina just for the Tonaka sisters. Even though IMO if they made them for 4? that means they might make them in 6? which they should since they said they would never make them or denholm elliots character ? marcus brody ?from indiana jones and we did get him after almost 40 years i realize there were some legal conditions for the sisters but they did get made eventually and it took a haslab to do it ..

I hope they hold off on Mutt because I get the feeling he and Metalhead went on to Ross and Ollies recently.

You got me thinking about how many joes or star wars or even legends are still going to head that way im glad some us got the deal on gnaw/porkbelly and ive picked up 3 mutts/junks for under half off @ the target by/nearest me and a metalhead for half off as well . This is the first time i only preordered 1 animal/human pack which would be roadpig i have a feeling they will go cheap eventually and so long as i have one and get another for cheap that?ll work for me .
