People will scream if we don't get a president figure.
People want figures in suits, it's classy... and pretty useful to recreate the final scenes of Revenge of the Ninja.

So Kokomo Toys has listed the early breakdowns of GI Joe: Retaliation toys.  Unfortunately it doesn't have individual items listed, but general info with case numbers.

Here is what they have:

GI Joe Movie 2 Blaster: Folding Carton: 3 Per Case
GI Joe Movie 2 Blade Of Justice: Blister Card: 4 Per Case
GI Joe Movie 2 Delta Vehicle Asst: Folding Carton: 2 Per Case
GI Joe Movie 2 10" Inch Battle-Kata Battlers: Platform Box: 3 Per Case
GI Joe Movie 2 Alpha Vehicle Asst: Blister Card: 8 Per Case
GI Joe Movie 2 Mask Asst: Box With Header: 6 Per Case
GI Joe Movie 2 3.75: Blister Card: 12 Per Case
GI Joe Movie 2 Bravo Vehicle Asst: Folding Carton Closed: 4Per Case
GI JoeMovie 2 Snake Eyes Ninja Set: Folding Carton Open: 3 Per Case
GI JoeMovie 2 Battle Kata Weapon: Folding Carton Closed: 3 Per Case
GI Joe Movie 2 Ninja Showdown Set: Window Carton: 4 Per Case
GI Joe Movie 2 Ninja Commando Blaster: Folding Carton Closed: 2 Per Case

Looks like lots of role-playing is in store, and of course a ninja heavy focus.  Here is what is interesting to me:

OK. 

Didn't know there was now a time limit for editing posts.  Weird.....

Anyway, here is what my thoughts were on what I highlighted:

Ninja Showdown set (Window box):  Has to be a 4-pack of SE/Jinx vs. Red Ninjas on the mountain side.

3.75 Blister Card:  Obviously wave 1, which will probably have Roadblock, SS, SE and CC.  After that I am not sure.

Alpha Vehicle (8/case):  This is going to be interesting.  The rumour is that the price is dropped a little bit from ROC, but they now come with a figure and vehicle on a card instead of a box, ala the ROC Target exclusives.  That really makes it interesting as to what could possibly be made.  The only one I can really think of is SE with Motorcycle as we saw in the trailer.

Bravo Vehicle (4/case):  Again, rumour is that this could be a smaller class than ROC Bravo, but I have to think that is unlikely.  I think the "Ripsaw" HISS pic seen recently is probably a good example of what will fit in this category.  Others have speculated that the hovercraft might also be in this class.

Delta Vehicle (2/case):  This is the biggie, ala Skystriker.  The far out rumour is a Night Boomer.  That is NOT a wave 1 choice.  The leading choice is the Rattler-esque aircraft seen in the trailer.

The far out rumour is a Night Boomer. 

Where did you heard that rumor? I'm still willing to be GIJCC does a Night Force set in 2012 or 2013 with the night boomer.
