Holy shit yeah! This is one of the best reveals I've seen despite being a repaint. As shit luck would have it I did not succeed in getting either of the previous two Blaze Ghost Riders. I may not have a bike for him but I'm all over this.

I'll pass. Outdated body and incorrect colors.

As someone who had every one of the Toybiz GR figures the card alone is worth it. Would I have preferred it to be Dan? Absolutely but I'll take what I can get and hope they do more.

Okay, I probably should have said "Not original colors" rather than inaccurate.

Note: Are we really getting a charger related to Ghost Rider for the next HasLab? Wow, making room for the Sentinel and Galactus is hard enough, but I will find some way to make it work with when Charger, when and if it is released. Note 2: If we do get a Ghost Rider themed Charger, I will be happy for two reasons. The first, it Ghost Rider. Second, I’m a car guy and love beautiful cars, especially the American Classics. The Charger is such an iconic and beautiful American made car in my opinion.

The flames around his neck just looks like an ascot to me. Fred would be proud!

I like it even though it's a repaint.
More curious if a ML Haslab Car will fund. |

I wanted to like this... but they did him an injustice by just repainting an old figure and keeping those AIM legs. For some reason, the legs look really lanky and out of proportion.. and look worse in the package, like bow-legged.
I don't remember the AIM soldier or the previous GR using those legs looking this bad. I love the packaging.. really wish this was a proper 90's Dan Ketch version, which they still haven't done. |

So they did Danny Ketch colors, but couldn't be bothered to add spikes & shape the coat more like his? Even the card art has those spikes.
Still, the additions of the transforming head for Johnny Blaze, the bone hands, the chain around the toro, fire effects, all tempting... But Hasbro's prices just keep going up & up! About as disappointing as them finally having toe movement for a Spider-Man, & he's packed (& priced) with Spinneret! Again, tempting with unmasked peter parker head (the civis Peter should've had the glasses as optional!) & the symbol is the same as that cyborg Spider-Man. |

And on the note of people, & even some articles/reviews claiming AIM trooper is reused: parts in modern figures are always reused, this isn't new info at all. And Idk what came 1st using those arms and legs--Ghost Rider, AIM, or Spider-Man Noir. Saying they're reused doesn't really mean anything. But it is lazy, especially considering the box card art & color palette, that they couldn't be bothered to shape some spikes or something at least.

Not to mention, maybe they are doing that with the inevitable Haslab figure so that there is incentive to purchase it. |

It's also a retro carded figure, which most of the time are rereleases and have no retooling. Even when they do, often it might actually just be unused tooling from when they first put out the figure.
