Does hasbro have any imagination on vehicles?

Exemple: armadillo/Armored Panther Tank  it is like someone at hasbro just say "lets stick two missile launchers on the side of it and call it a different name.

But I do like the night raven, steel crusher, and the cobra gun ship.

that's my 2 cents

While I'm not very enthusiastic for the entire line, especially most of re-hashed vehicles, I do find that the name NEO VIPER finally found its right look. They do look like something I've never seen before in Cobra, and have this alien Snake feel to it. I will get a Neo Viper Commander for sure!

The movie figs don't look that good from the pictures. I will have to see them in person before buying them. I dislike the big crazy weapons as well. I guess if I was a kid again maybe I would think the big weapons were cool. I now wonder what the movie will be like.

The movie figures remind me of Godzilla figures with better articulation.
I think I will be pass on most of these - I might pick up the random figure if it look great when I see them at retail.
And I will have to wait and see the vehicles at retail as well.

I like the movie figures.
Hopefully since they're base on the movie, they'll be easier to get than the 25th line.

I am looking forward to this.  I want GIJoe to get the big budget treatment and everything that goes with it.

My concern is the August release date.  That time of the summer is usually relegated to films that aren't expected to be that big.  Tent pole pictures are released in May and around the 4th of July.

I first thought the accelerator Duke wasn't a good idea, now I'm more than sure...  ::)

Suddenly, I have an Eddie Murphy song running through my head - "GIJoe go swimming in the water"....

My guess is that they will be easier to find. It seems Walmart stocks toys based on what movie is out.

These figs arent as bad is i thought they would be. Actually, for a movie line they are an A+ in my book. I expected a "T" crotch, and no elbow joints like the new T4 figs lol.

I will be passing on these, as the nostalgia feeling isnt there for me. But i think/hope they will be a huge hit to prolong  GI Joe toys for a little while longer
