I think the 25th Fang (that came with 2 figures and a Claw) was still less than $25. Yes it was 12 years ago, but still cheaper than this. I guess a pretty box mostly filled with air has its costs too.

I actually liked that figure even without the helmet. Nice flight suit.

Wow, so it looks like I have some catching up to do. These figures, are they all the same as existing modern figures? New designs? New construction styles? Would they fit in with the current ME figures or would they seem to be targeting the Fortnight demographic?

Welcome back man!!! Talking about the Retro line (only sold at WM), just about all of them are 4" modern era repaints. The only new tooling we have seen is a new head for Scarlett (which is really good), a new head for RB (which is a shrunken down Classified RB head), new heads for Hiss driver and Crankcase, new glued on vest for hiss driver, new helmet for crankcase, new thighs and feet for Hiss driver (the thighs are engineered weirdly causing him to have a wide stance), and a newly tooled Fang and Fang Pilot which does not look like Joe to me. Everything else we have gotten before.

Crankcase has more going than a hew head, they went with almost all new parts. I'm sure kitbashed, but a serious improvement over his Target exclusive version.

Thanks, that's a good start. Glad to hear they aren't totally rebooting the current modern-era format so much as building on it a little bit. Are they going to remain Walmart only? Walmart is the absolute pits when it comes to keeping anything in stock. I'd love to see them at Target again.

So I've learned. I visit a few Walmart locations FREQUENTLY and I have NEVER seen a single retro figure in stock. I have received some of my pre-orders while others remain delayed indefinitely.

Anyone know the recipe for this CC and have pics of this one and the Ultimate CC together?
Would have been nice if they would have done more with this. Could have included the hooded head or something. I mean they included all the stuff with SS and SE for the most part.
