...in the near future based on the parts being meshed together for the 25th line? Though I'm not a huge fan of re-hashed parts or repaints to sustain a line, I think Hasbro has done a pretty good job of mixing the parts to make really workable figures in the 25th anny line. Here's a few thoughts of figures that could be made based on the parts we've already seen or will see in newer releases. Shockwave: After taking a closer look at the torso of the comic pack Firefly, I thought to myself SW could happen. Desert Scorpion: RB torso, Hiss Driver legs and a modded SE commando head and he's done. Tunnel-rat: New head on a Viper torso with TF Flint's arms and either Shippy's or Cobra Co's legs with different feet. Just a few late-night thoughts of mine. I'd be really interested to hear yours. |

Well, I'd say about twenty more versions of Snake Eyes, Cobra Commander, Storm Shadow and Duke are safe bets... Other than that... -Monkeywrench: Probably Gung-ho body, new head, new jacket -Mindbender: Again, Gung-ho upper body (or maybe the new shirtless Storm Shadow), Crimson Twin legs, new head, cape -Eels: Torpedo body w/ new head and lots of gear -Ninja Viper: complete repaint of Storm Shadow, probably as an exclusive of some kind -v1-inspired Serpentor: PLEASE. Really, all it would take is the existing Serpentor body (hopefully w/ fixed waist and a better head), maybe some new thigh pieces and lower arms, and the rest could be done with accessories. -Kwinn: Really, all they'd need is a new head for the Arctic Snake Eyes. - |

Always sort of a tough to guess with this line. Some figures we have been asking for still haven't shown up and then some stuff we weren't even thinking of shows up. Think we might have a shot at Wet Suit since they can keep making divers with just some changes to the gear and heads. |

Eels and Wet-suit are both on that Hasbro poll so I think we can look for them by the end of the year. |

Having just got the Viper figure today, I tried on some webgears. The OG13 harness is a snug fit on the Viper torso, but it works, so Footloose isn't out of the question. SE arms, and legs with Viper Torso/waist, new head, and backpack w/straps and you've got Dusty! Seriously, that Viper torso/waist combo is going to be the backbone of so many figures, mark my words. I'd love to see a Mercer using Viper torso/waist/legs/vest, Tomax and Xamot arms, and a new head. |
