I love how "the biggest news" according to hasbro are the Hall of heroes figures. :roll:

OK seeing what I assume is Roadblock saying "I didn't know we had a Ninja." Makes me think this might not be as cool as I thought intitially. RB's head is just messed up. He kind of looks like Carl from Aquateen. Pensive again.

Without his rhyming Roadblock is just another bald black guy.

Yeah that's kind of sad that everyone gets that for their first look. Roadblock looking a little weird in that one scene really takes a back seat to the rest of the footage. I just wish they'd put it up there for everyone to see,

Take this brief bit with a grain of salt. It is just a tiny portion of the full bit shown, which in itself was only intended to be a sample. You can't eat a pea and decide you don't like soup.

The clip we saw at the con even has me excited. And I'm primarily a toys and comics guy.

Resolute is going to be outstanding.

How incredibly ironic. And sad.

The ONE brief moment of the entire animation bit that was just a bit off... is the one moment that shows up online first.

Way to go, Hasbro.

No no no. Most basic marketing. Its a snowball effect. You want to build excitement - you can't do that presenting Roadblock last, you start with him first - because hell, its still a good cartoon - and you build from there. The rib snapping Snake Eyes scene will be released last.

Looks nice.
Hey, there were a lot of shots of the people at the Con. I know the guys dressed up as Ripper and Roadblock are boardmembers, but who else was in the clip?

I was in the front row taking pictures of the Rattler and Conquest (I think...it was either that or the Firebat and SHARC).

Wow...that clip cemented Snake Eyes as a badass better than anything else up to this point.

Why does Roadblock's teeth looked messed up? I see a whole anime thing I am not going to like and I smell sigma six all over this.
