Now that the movie's out and we've seen it, it's clear that many of the figures aren't really ROC figures so much as new 25A figures rolled out as ROC figures. I'll point out that this isn't a complaint. I'm very happy to have new figures, even if they're in the movie. As best as I can tell, Shipwreck wasn't in the movie, but the ROC figure's uniform is so "ROC"-ish, I can't say it doesn't feel like a movie figure. Sure, you could make the argument that all of these are ROC because the packaging says so, but they don't all feel that way. Which figures/vehicles weren't in the movie? Aero-Viper Deep Six Eels Flash Grand Slam (awesome figure, btw!) Helix (I saw one actress with similar hair, but no striping) Ice-Viper Terra-Viper Every vehicle except for the Gunship and the Cobra SUV? |

Depends on how picky you want to be about what;s ROC and what's not. Flash and Helix are both in the ROC game. Both feel very "movie-ey" to me. Terra-Viper's a hole filling frankenstein, but Ice Viper fits the Movie asthetic very well. Some more vehicle drivers, which tend to be less "movie-look": Sgt. Thunderblast Nitro-Viper Snow Job Scrap Iron |

If I remember right from one of the Q&A things with Hasbro somewhere they said that Rise of Cobra would be an umbrella brand. All the stuff coming out would be in Rise of Cobra packaging but that didn't mean that they would not work some things from outside the movie into the line. Best of all world's really since kids would just mix 25th, Resolute and movie figures together. Ah heck who am I kidding I'm doing the same thing myself. But hey as long they give us cool figures I'm not going to complain that figure with a 25th or Resolute look was released in a movie package. |

The EELs are in the movie. They're the ones piloting the Mantis subs. That Aqua Viper or whatever it's called that's packed with the Mantis is not in the movie. |
