Here are the photos I was able to get from the never seen or heard panel.

This is just the toys that never made it to production stages.

Unfortunately they rushed us out so it was a mad scramble to try and get photos.

BOMBER JET BASED ON A SWEDISH JET AND HAMMER W/MISSILE & EQUALIZER TURRET


ENGINE AND FIRST CAR (WITH TURRET GUN AND WORKING SPOTLIGHT THAT ROTATES)
FAR LEFT IS THE THUNDERCLAP STYLE "ATOMIC CANNON" (FACING CAMERA SO YOU CAN'T REALLY SEE IT)


TANKER CAR (RIGHT SIDE OF PIC) OPENED WITH MISSILE LAUNCHER & CABOOSE (LEFT SIDE) OPEN WITH SCOUT CAR

Here we go.  I found a roundabout way to get the photos on my Iphone.  I only took the 4 most important (in my mind) to post now, and the rest will be posted later.

NEW HISS TANK


ZARTAN!!!!! (BEHIND ZARTAN IS RIPCORD'S WINGS FROM HIS FLYING DELTA SIX SUIT)


JUNGLE VIPER!!!!!


MAIL AWAY COBRA COMMANDER WITH HISS DRONE & NEW CARD

As of 4pm only the S.A.F. w/Blades exclusive had sold out.

I'm not sure about the others, but I would hazard a guess that price is what is keeping them from already being sold out.

Also, it was mentioned that the JOE "planes" in the movie were called "Howlers" in case you were wondering.

The treads on the new HISS just make me think of the robot from Lost in Space (Movie)

That Jungle Viper looks like pure bad-ass.

Is CC's flag cloth or plastic?

I believe the flag (a cobra emblem with side tassles) is all plastic.   I also asked about the HISS drone and was told the final colour will more closely mtach the red on CC.

Ok... So.. umm... This Hate set. Was it on display or on sale?

Either way, I find it cool that one is there. :-)



Great updates!

He was walking by with it under his arm while I was writing a post.  I've seen him around since but not the set.  I haven't seen the set on sale at any table.

I do have to say that the dealer room is pretty sparse this year.

Forgot to mention.

Hasbro guys specifically said yesterday that there were no plans for a new Terrordrome, Flagg, etc. 

Nothing big besides the PITT.

Thanks for all the effort "canprime".  Can you confirm the number of figures and vehicles planned for 2010?  I read somewhere that it is 45 figures and 15 vehicles, but you had said 25 figures and 10 vehicles.  Not sure which is accurate.
