Oh, yeah, L.C.V. is bad, bad. I'm nostalgia-driven, but not for concepts like that.

They know they'd lose a portion of their audience if they hit all the right notes in the first two years. The way they pepper the line with new/old seems to work but I'm also someone who is only interested in a few of the smaller vehicles.

You need to post more. This was hilarious.
It does hurt to hit the shin, though. Worse than the funny bone.

1985's Cobra Flight Pod makes no practical sense to me. It's as if Destro decided the Tele-vipers are a'holes and now I can hear Arthur Burghardt's laugh every time a Trubble Bubble gets shot out of the sky.

The problem with creating new things for the line - what can you come up with that is not 'already' in ARAH from the 80's?

A new truck? Well, we still have the Awe Striker, Mudslinger, Badger, Desert Fox and so on. So, if you designed a 'new' something - people would just cry that the old vehicle never got made.

Nah, that's one of my favorite movies in the franchise/scifi.

A Cobra submarine would be cool. The mother ship. The earth boring machine they had in Renegades. Those spider-walkers that hauled tanks up the mountain in Sunbow (and I think ARAH) too.

The Cobra transport helicopter from the comics is one that has been asked for a lot over the years, though I think an o-ring version would be more practical than a classified one. Forgot what thread I was in for a second there.
