The Data Viper body is in a Retaliation 3 pack.

Which figure in the 3 packs?
Ripcord also using Skydive's gear.


Actually, it's Airborne.

This is the first I'm hearing of that.

Are there pics or a source?


No pics yet, though one was shown during the Hasbro presentation at Toy Fair (which hasn't been released to the media). The source for this info is our very own fearless leader, pluv. It was in his Toy Fair report.

Hah, I'd totally missed that.
That's interesting.

I'd like for Hasbro to make the multi pack steel brigade and Iron Grenadier sets that were shown as cancelled.

Do you think we'll ever see the unreleased figures and accessories like PoC Arctic Duke, 30th Data Viper, 30th Kwinn, PoC Desert Heavy Duty's new vest, 30th Lifeline's ProTEC helmet and parachute with harness, Renegades Law's legs, Renegades Ripcord's vest, etc eventually released in some form or another?

Those were actually really good parts and figures and some of them, like Arctic Duke, actually made it up to prototype/test shot stage.

Enjoy.

Interesting what a difference a few months' worth of wait and reveals can show.

Lifeline's ProTEC helmet is being used on Mouse, while the parachute was planned for use on 30th Hit & Run. Kwinn's arms were used on GIJCC Footloose. Data-Viper's body was used for Retaliation Airborne, while the drone is coming with Retaliation "Ultimate" Duke.


I do wonder how far along tooling for POC Desert Heavy Duty's vest went. Because honestly, if that vest was put on regular Heavy Duty's body and they tooled up a new head, I'd accept that as Renegades Roadblock.

I wouldn't mind the Python Patrol Croc Master myself. Data-Viper and Kwinn top my list of what I'd really like to see, but I'm not counting on either one of them.

Didn't Hasbro say that the PP Croc Master and Blowtorch were actually lost somewhere? It sounded like the figures had been produced, but no one had any idea where they ended up. Unless I misheard, that statement boggles my mind. How do you lose thousands of produced figures, or forget where they are? Is that just a glimpse of the kind of priority and attention Hasbro gives the brand, or was it someones career ending mistake?

I don't buy they were ever produced, I'm pretty sure that statement was made in order.

Maybe the Illuminati hijacked the entire shipping container? They thought it was untaxed cigarettes.

When asked in the Hasbro panel, Derryl DePriest claimed that the figures were supposedly produced and shipped. However, since the running change cases supposedly have the same identifying information as the regular POC cases, they have no way to determine the location of those cases. I'm still very skeptical myself, especially considering that I've heard of no samples ever being found (surely Gyre-Viper would have shared them with us had he found any).

They could very well be sitting in a warehouse/dc somewhere waiting to be distributed along with other product that was never able to get out there. We're just now seeing Iron Man 2 figures that never really saw the light of day. If these were produced it wouldn't surprise me to see them show up at some of the discount chains for Christmas.

I won't hold my breath or get my hopes up. Won't waste a wish on a star neither.
I have doubts because if the figures had been produced we'd have seen evidence of it by now, there would been pictures of them at finished production level. As somone above mentioned, Gyre Viper or Notpicard or Glumby et al would own PP Croc Master and/or tan-green Blowtorch.
