The Joe set seems pretty cool, but it just doesn't feel like a SDCC exclusive to me. I don't know why, either. Maybe because it's not tied to Transformers in some way.
I wonder if TRU will be able to sell them in their stores after the Con like Hasbro typically does with their SDCC stuff.

This year has been the weakest set of exclusives for SDCC in a while. Everything from the the major companies such as Hasbro and Mattel has been an easy pass for me, and as someone said earlier, the exclusives coming out don't seem to have that exclusive appeal or wow factor that's gonna make me break out my wallet this year. Even NECA's offerings, who has killed it the last few years at SDCC feel weak. There's always next year I suppose.
I also wish that Hasbro would just retire the Vamp molds already. How many different versions of this same vehicle are they going to give us? With a vehicle history as rich as G.I.Joe's, with so many more that have not been done...why do they continue to give us even more jeeps? Where's the MOBAT, F.A.N.G., Mauler, Ferret, Stun, Triple T, Sea Ray or Maggot? Hell...I'd kill for a re-issue of some of the wackier vehicles like the Buzz Boar, Pogo, BUGG, or General at this point... |

I'm pretty interested in Star Wars The Black Series –* Cantina Showdown Play Set. Looking forward at this one.

The VAMP mk2 has been a long time coming. Besides that VAMP is just an awesome bonus accessory to what people really want from that set- the new sculpt classic Flint and Night Landing.
They re-released the MOBAT and FANG a few years ago in the 25th line. The Triple T is probably the wackiest (meaning worst) vehicle you named, TP. I thirdly testify to the POGO's greatness.

I thought I remembered seeing the MOBAT and FANG again, but I wasn't sure. Didn't they reissue the Ferret as well?

The MOBAT was released in the Target exclusive Ultimate Battle Pack with the RED HISS tank and Blue Trouble Bubble. Fang chopper was released in a two pack with the CLAW glider. Last edited by Phantomcrow; 07-01-2014 at 12:02 PM.. |

It's nice to know that some people out there feel the same way as I do with the vehicle releases. Hail the Cobra POGO, the most dangerous and impractical vehicle to ever grace the battlefield.
I realize that several of the vehicles I mentioned were re released at some point, but like Phantom said, many were released somewhat under the radar with the movie line, or as limited exclusives at different stores, and were often hard to come by. The variety of vehicles that have been released the last five years has been disappointing. How many versions of the vamp, fangboat, skystriker, and hiss tank can one have? Why can't we have the Imp, Hammerhead, or Condor Z25? Or even better, the Flagg, Terrordrome, or Joe headquarters? I'd buy those in a heartbeat, knowing that I would no longer have to search ebay or garage sales in hopes of finding one with all the parts and pieces intact! The Triple T is indeed a wacky vehicle, and that's precisely why it's needed. My modern Sgt Slaughter figure has been without one for far too long! |

Those movie Turtles look good, but it's a shame that the texture isn't on the body sculpts.

I'm really looking forward to getting Prowl, since it will save me a bit of money not importing the TT version.
My new hope is that Hasbro uses the all-silver version for their MP Streak instead of the 'toon-accurate one. I'd love to have a toy-accurate one to go with my TT release.
