Their is a growing demand for rip cord to be done in 25. I find that strange being the fact that their was only one version of him and his head only turns left and right. Is it because of his role in the comics or in the cartoon?

he's a cool figure with cool accessories that would translate amazingly well in 25th form. the fact that he is being changed so drastically in the movie only adds to the hysteria of wanting a vintage version of him.

Same reason people want a recondo.
Characters I could care less about are other peoples favorites.

Rip-cord actually was a pretty central character in the comics in issues leading up to Serpentor's creation. It was actually an interesting side story with him being in a relationship with a civilian but couldn't share with her anything about himself. He was a very minor character after that, but those were some classic stories.

One thing I've learned, every character, no matter how insignificant you may think he is, he's somebody's favorite. Even Raptor. lol

Thats a good explanation. I remembered him in comics and barely remember being on the cartoon. I had a rip cord when i was little but traded him for a transformer I think.

Raptor kicks ass. I'd love to see him in the next movie and see how fans cry that they put him in a suit instead of dressed in a bird helmet with wings.

Hey! Raptor had his moments. Haha, but no way was he getting out of that freighter alive ala firefly style.
