Title: 25th ann. vehicles: Your wish list?
Post by: martin-montreal on April 10, 2008, 07:32:24 PM: The new 25th anniversary vehicles look pretty good. We already got: Serpentor?s chariot, Armadillo tank, Ram, Flight Pod, Vamp, HISS and as Target exclusives: HISS (again), Night Specter (Sharc) and Awe Striker.

If you could influence Hasbro, what vehicle(s) would reach the market next?

Morgardee already proposed the WHALE... and you?

Post by: Colonel Abernathy on April 10, 2008, 07:49:33 PM: I've always really liked the Water Mocassin, FANG, 82 VAMP, HAL...actually anything from 1982-1985 is cool with me :)
Title: Re: 25th ann. vehicles: Your wish list?
Post by: akpayne on April 10, 2008, 07:53:55 PM: I have to agree - anything from the 82-85 range of vehicles would be great.
I like the idea of the Vamp and the tow behind vehicles.
My favourite vehicle of all time however is the Moray. I would love an updated version of that!

TNI: Are the Cobra Vamp and CLAW which were mentioned in a recent Hasbro PR still in the works, and will this Cobra Vamp be the Cobra Stinger?

Hasbro: The Cobra CLAW will be debuted at Comic Con in July. The "Cobra VAMP" as it was referred to in a press release is in fact the Stinger and will be seen in 2009.

The classic Stinger = woo hoo

Post by: B on April 11, 2008, 04:04:24 PM: I think I'd rather have a new playset over a vehicle, but I suppose I'd like the Night Raven. That's probably my favourite vehicle. After that, the Tomahawk would be sweet.

Post by: Pete The Greek on April 11, 2008, 04:10:12 PM: As for playsets...

5) What are the chances of seeing larger playsets(TerrorDrome, Flagg,etc.) or vehicles (including fighter planes) being released for this line or the movie line?

Hasbro's response:
Quote
There will not be any playsets in the anniversary line. For the movie,we will try and put out a line that does justice to the 80's as well as deliver an awesome play experience for kids.

Post by: BludChylde on April 11, 2008, 11:14:23 PM: Definitely the Water Mocassin or Moray.

Would love to see a Night Raven or Tomahawk as well.
Title: Re: 25th ann. vehicles: Your wish list?
Post by: martin-montreal on April 12, 2008, 08:00:55 AM: I love the Moray Hydrofoil (Go Hasbro Go!!!).

But for smaller vehicles, a 3-pack including a White, a Blue and a Red S.N.A.K.E. would be so great!!! The Ferret is a nice vehicle too!

A small playset that would also be cool is the Bivouac...

We can still dream...
Title: Re: 25th ann. vehicles: Your wish list?
Post by: Scramble on April 12, 2008, 09:41:27 AM: Echo the Bivouac, add the crossing station and stuff like that. Flak and other tow vehicles would be great, too.

I'll be obvious and hope for a 25th Persuader with Back-Stop.
Title: Re: 25th ann. vehicles: Your wish list?
Post by: akpayne on April 12, 2008, 10:08:09 AM: The Ferret is a strange on for me - I loved the toy on its own when I was a kid, but if I had it next to the Vamp or any other Joe vehicles the Ferret made them look really small.
So while I loved the ferret, it never saw much use, other than being parked.

I would like to see Zartan's swamp skier, or any of the motorcycles from the cartoon.
I also have to think an update to the Skystriker and the Rattler would be great.
Title: Re: 25th ann. vehicles: Your wish list?
Post by: joss789 on April 12, 2008, 11:18:07 AM: Skystriker + Rattler
Mauler( i know the mold is broken but i new mold will be great)
S.N.A.K.E., Fang, Stinger, Water Mocassin,
Maybe Killer Whale & Moray.
Anyway, i will buy all vehicles Hasbro will make!!!

Post by: condor knight on April 13, 2008, 07:32:41 PM: I would love to see the teror drome, flagg, and the pac rats.
Title: Re: 25th ann. vehicles: Your wish list?
Post by: Radio Guy on April 13, 2008, 09:39:48 PM: The Cobra Rat!

That was for you Pete.....
Title: Re: 25th ann. vehicles: Your wish list?
Post by: Devilfish on April 13, 2008, 11:22:55 PM: I'd love to see a Vamp MKII with a tan Whirlwind. Think that it could come with a Tan Clutch and Tan Rock and Roll. Other then that a Devilfish, Ferret, Skyhawk, Firebat (with AVAC) and maybe a Desert Fox.
Title: Re: 25th ann. vehicles: Your wish list?
Post by: Pete The Greek on April 14, 2008, 12:13:57 AM: I must be the only one wanting a re-issue of the H.A.V.O.C. It had tons of play value.

The Rat.....sure if they change the body, the wheels and everything else on it. Heck, a hockey puck with wheels is better than that piece of shit.

Post by: Snake8Storm on April 16, 2008, 10:18:59 PM: I'd like to see the rattler release always wanted one of those as a kid. Mainly I would like to see the Killer Whale Hovercraft, a canadian exclusive, the space shuttle with crawler or terror drome, or pretty much anything from 82-89.

Post by: pdaat on April 17, 2008, 08:01:34 PM: The Whale was definitely something I always wanted. Many water battles took place in the large culvert under the road in front of my house.

That's likely why I have a small fleet of Devilfish (the boat that is).
