Those will be some Exclusives!  I wonder if the Stinger is the PoC VAMP repainted?

Ok, now this sounds like a good bunch of exclusives.

However the colour scheme is "blah" on the Armadillo, and quite frankly I think it is time for both MC and Hasbro to bench the mold for a little while at least.

The Water Moccasin is going to be based on the original red colour scheme from Brazil.

The Stinger is intriguing and I can't wait to see what the patterning and colour placement looks like.

I'm hoping for a repainted 25th Stinger!

I saw pics of the armadillo. It's the RoC Armored Panther with camo colours. Not impressive... The Chrome Mole Pod would be sooo much better!

Yeah, looks like the 25th stinger.  Saw the photos.  I didn't know gatilho and relampago meant trigger and lightning.

Saw a lot of the pics, I am underwhelmed, partly b/c Im not a huge Python Patrol fan, if they had used more of the red criss cross pattern on the figures Id be all over it, but I guess they have to stay true to the originals.  I do like the stinger though (b/c of the red criss cross pattern).

Just for this once I have to agree with Bandonov on the chromed mole pod.

What's with the Armadillo? I know that it looks like it's in the colours of the new Brazil theme, but those colour combinations are weak already on the figures IMO, and it's even more magnafied on the vehicles.

I love the Stinger repaint.

I find the Mocassin's paint scheme too plain. The colour scheme of the original Hasbro vehicles is what represents better this entire Python Patrol series IMO, they should've just sticked with it instead of paying tribute to a less glorious blast from the past... that is better left to the past. Just saying.
