Too true. It often seems as though Hasbro enjoys leaving teams one member short.

Roadblock wasn't left out just to piss off collectors. Because of his size on the show, he would either be way-out-of-scale as a toy (standard Joe size) or be an over-sized figure (which Hasbro doesn't do for Joes). As for the Coyote being M.I.A., I wish they'd put one out as well. They could even squeeze a redeco out of it by releasing a standard HISS tank from the show.

I'd love to see Hasbro make Roadblock for SDCC (maybe with the Coyote?). Sure, it might be harder to get for some collectors, but at least we'd have a shot at getting one - which is more than we have now.

I think a huge part of child development is imaginative play - not holding to rules, but just letting your imagination dictate what kind of fun you have. I think playsets can be rather detrimental to that, because they remove a certain aspect of creative thought and that's not always good.

I myself never had any action figure playsets, just vehicles. I found creative ways to imagine settings for my heroes and create my own worlds with what I had. I had a hanger for my X-Wing that was a fruit display box from a grocery store turned upside down. I used tin foil and markers to detail it and make it all scifi ish. I think parents need to encourage more of that kind of behavior.

Well said.
