This one really just blows my mind. In a 5 pack that was all about minor tweaks that resulted in major improvements, this would have made so much right in the world! ESPECIALLY since Hawk is just a repaint who DIDN'T need a repaint.

My theory is because these particular 5-packs only include the most iconic or most popular characters from the cartoon. It would be cool if they made another 5-pack with improved possible "2nd string" characters, though. Maybe Leatherneck, Serpentor, Breaker, Falcon and Iron Grenadier. Problem is it wouldn't contain any characters that supposedly sell well to kids.

I agree, Leatherneck should have replaced hawk.

Besides, if they gave you all the figures you wanted in one set, they'd have nothing left to entice you into buying the next one.

Why?
Because it's Hasbro. Gen.Hawk was a complete new mold and they need to use the mold as much as possible. Everyone is pretty much on the ball here. The five pack has known characters that'll sell, everything we want in one shot, will leaves us with nothing else to buy, and an O.G. Leatherneck (W/ TIGER FORCE DUKE ARMS!!!!) would be better single carded. |
