25th ann. vehicles: Your wish list?
« on: April 10, 2008, 07:32:24 PM »
The new 25th anniversary vehicles look pretty good. We already got: Serpentor?s chariot, Armadillo tank, Ram, Flight Pod, Vamp, HISS and as Target exclusives: HISS (again), Night Specter (Sharc) and Awe Striker.

If you could influence Hasbro, what vehicle(s) would reach the market next?

Morgardee already proposed the WHALE... and you?

I've always really liked the Water Mocassin, FANG, 82 VAMP, HAL...actually anything from 1982-1985 is cool with me :)

I have to agree - anything from the 82-85 range of vehicles would be great.
I like the idea of the Vamp and the tow behind vehicles.
My favourite vehicle of all time however is the Moray.  I would love an updated version of that!

According to the lastest Q & A from TNI

http://toynewsi.com/news.php?catid=9&itemid=12783

Quote
TNI: Are the Cobra Vamp and CLAW which were mentioned in a recent Hasbro PR still in the works, and will this Cobra Vamp be the Cobra Stinger?

Hasbro: The Cobra CLAW will be debuted at Comic Con in July. The "Cobra VAMP" as it was referred to in a press release is in fact the Stinger and will be seen in 2009.

The classic Stinger = woo hoo

I think I'd rather have a new playset over a vehicle, but I suppose I'd like the Night Raven. That's probably my favourite vehicle.  After that, the Tomahawk would be sweet.

As for playsets...

5) What are the chances of seeing larger playsets(TerrorDrome, Flagg,etc.) or vehicles (including fighter planes) being released for this line or the movie line?

Hasbro's response:

There will not be any playsets in the anniversary line. For the movie,we will try and put out a line that does justice to the 80's as well as deliver an awesome play experience for kids.

Definitely the Water Mocassin or Moray.

Would love to see a Night Raven or Tomahawk as well.

I love the Moray Hydrofoil (Go Hasbro Go!!!).

But for smaller vehicles, a 3-pack including a White, a Blue and a Red S.N.A.K.E. would be so great!!! The Ferret is a nice vehicle too!

A small playset that would also be cool is the Bivouac...

We can still dream...

Echo the Bivouac, add the crossing station and stuff like that. Flak and other tow vehicles would be great, too.

I'll be obvious and hope for a 25th Persuader with Back-Stop.

The Ferret is a strange on for me - I loved the toy on its own when I was a kid, but if I had it next to the Vamp or any other Joe vehicles the Ferret made them look really small.
So while I loved the ferret, it never saw much use, other than being parked.

I would like to see Zartan's swamp skier, or any of the motorcycles from the cartoon.
I also have to think an update to the Skystriker and the Rattler would be great.
