Sandstorm and Ram cycle
« on: February 25, 2011, 02:32:34 PM »

Hey fellas, someone posted on my board that the cancelled ROC Sandstorm and Ram cycle has a tiny little Z Force sticker.



Please could somebody confirm this?  I'd love to see some photos if possible.

The links in my sig should explain all, Kronser.

Z Force were revived for last year's Joecon exclusives.

Action Force is the codename for Europe's daring highly trained special missions force. they're made up of four units; Z Force is the infantry, armour and artillery force; SAS Force specialises in rapid assault and behind the lines operations; Q Force is the naval contingent whilst Space Force provide our eyes and ears in space.


yeah, the Joes had the Defiant, WE have an entire force of astronauts.

Nope, no idea - I'll ask in the next Q&A session.  It could have been planned for last year's Joecon exclusives?

More likely is it was intended for release alongside the Z Force-coloured Scarlett
