Is it my imagination or is this Destro's colors a tribute to his action force release?

I must know if we are getting another Short Fuze or not? Like a lot of people I want one but $50 is too much.

Tiger Force Duke ... does he have fixed hands with that atrocious wrist joint moved to where it should have been all along? Or is this just a painted mock-up?

it was siad somewhere that starting with that Duke, he'll have fixed arms and I think the same for the Cobra trooper that's coming out around the same time.

Fixed arms and it looks like (and was said) that the hands will hold the gun now. So yes, fixed hands.

Short Fuse is in the new box set. We will be finishing out the original 13 before the movie's release. No word on when the last will come out.

Zap is the last of the 13 so I hope he's on target to be slotted in somewhere already to be revealed later.

I thought that myself and hoping that they may consider releasing some of these things in the UK!!!!! but i doubt we will see anything this year over here but hoping we will see something next year with the Movie release!

That destro and Hiss would easily pass as a tribute to the Desto/ Hyena of the old Action Force line!

So TF Duke is gonna be the first fig with corrected arms? I can see in the pics he lost his diaper at least.
So figs like Falcon are still gonna be stuck with the crap arms?

Okay, so, the packaged Rattler seen here

http://i.toynewsi.com/g/index.php?mode= ... 00&start=0

has the gunner's canopy. But the picture of the Rattler on the back of the box, seen here

http://i.toynewsi.com/g/index.php?mode= ... 0&start=40

Seems to be a repaint of the crappy JvC era rattler that did not have a gunner's canopy (or any way to attach one).

Given Hasbro's history of using place holders or mock-ups both for convention displays AND for packaging photos, does anyone know which version we're actually getting?
