I guess I'll be the one who asks...
Hawk: blonde or brunette? |

Hawk will be outstanding. Tripwire is a meh character at best. But it's nice that they are starting to balance some of the most wanted with less sought after. That means people will see something they thought they wouldn't get. I hope they update him so he doesn't look like he's stuck in a long forgotten war at least.

Sticking with my original $99.99 prediction (before S&H and taxes). Honestly, I just can't see Serpentor and his Chariot going for less than the Viper 3-pack which is just a repaint with some new blast effects.
Just as long as they don't deviate too much from the original design. I mentioned it this morning, but I think I would be happy if he uses about 80% of the original's design. Give him some extra removable gear and an extra accessory and maybe some more modern and slightly bulkier armor on his chest and call it a day. If they do too much they run the risk of what we got with Firefly -- which was okay, but not what most fans wanted to see and why we are already getting another brand-new Firefly in 2023. |

Well I predicted Hawk on another thread. I am thrilled we are getting him. He was the number one character on my wanted list. Also, I am sure he will be the 1986 style figure. The 1982 figure is just too plain and somewhat boring. The 1986 look is far more iconic.
Tripwire is a bit of a surprise. Talk about a B or even C level character. I always liked Tripwire, but he is by no means my favorite. Still it will be nice to add him to the team/shelf. And his mine detector could be really cool. |

$90 is a BS price given the prices of heavily licensed products that went up on Pulse today.
I'm not saying I think y'all are wrong, it's likely to be $90 and that's still a BS price. EDIT: Go check out the deluxe retro cardback Iron Man and then tell me with a straight face that Serpentor and Air Chariot should cost the same as *two* of those. |

That much for Serpentor? I mean does he come with much more than Breaker and CI Baroness? They were only $40 something with bikes. There's not much to his chariot. It's pretty much a big display stand lol

I hope they remember to age him up a bit to further differentiate him from Duke. After seeing what they can do with Outback, I'm really looking forward to see if/how they capture the right balance of age and authority in Hawk's face sculpt.
