Don't get me wrong, I think they did a great job

Armadillo with bustle rack, saddle bag and head lights (did they have headlights on the orginal?)

Vamp with removable shovel!!!! that e-tool is awesome!

I never owned the RAM, and was very happy with it, finding the pistol in the sadlebag was a bonus.

I also never owned the Flight Pod, but I would have liked to have had the Air mine included. not happy with the Tele-vipers hands though

Only been able to spot the HISS pack and the Armadillo/Air Chariot packs so far.

I got the HISS pack because I thought it would cool to have a HISS my HISS drivers could actually fit into. Plus the HISS is just one of those toys that have a special spot in my heart even though I own several already. Would have been nice to had a red driver with the pack instead because with the colors I plan on using the packed in figure as Rip It.

Had to pass on the Armadillo/Air Chariot pack. I want the Armadillo, but the rest of the pack is blah and just throw out. Just by packing in a new visor they could have packed in a nice Steeler figure, but instead he comes off more like just a green shirt or something so blah. Still the Serpentor figure that wasn't that fun the first go round and they didn't even bother to at least put some cartoon colors or something on him to make him sort of worth having. Plus with every picture I've seen if the pack the new 25th Serpentor is way too big for his Air Chariot now so I'd have to give it to Cobra Commander or someone shorter to make it look like it wasn't an adult riding a kid's toy.

Looking forward to getting the Vamp and RAM sets at some point even if Hasbro did cheap out with no back pack for the Tele-Viper.

Love having new vehicle sets, love they are throwing in file cards for the vehicles, love that the packs aren't some store exclusive you almost have to win a lottery to find, but I really wish they would go that last step and not cheap out the gear.

That is the main problem for international buyer like me. Those Target exclusive are hard to find for you in the USA, so imagine for us! We have to buy them on eBay for 2, 3 or even 5 times their initial value + shipping cost. That's bad...

In Canada, we missed the earlier wave for the figs and we now cross or fingers to get the vehicles.
