If I understand it correctly, and I am fully prepared to admit that I probably don't... That list over at gijoe.com is the remainder of the single packs we're going to see this year, with perhaps a wave or 2 before shifting into movie stuff in 09... So just as a fun sort of exercise, I am compiling a list of what I would like to see that hasn't been announced yet before the movie line starts.

Single carded figures: I figure 2 waves before the movie line starts, 4-6 new figures per wave.

2009, wave 1
Dr Mindbender
Recondo
Shockwave
Hit N Run
Techno Viper
Worms

2009 wave 2
Ripcord
Alley Viper
Low Light
Sparta
Night Viper
Professor Apple - even if it's just a CG with a new head...

Remember, this is just a wish list, I am not too concerned with how likely any of this is. Now, as to comic packs, this is what I would hope for (I fully anticipate a Zap/Short Fuze pack, though I am not too interested in it personally...)

2009 Comic Pack wave 1
BAT w/spores and Dr Mindbender
Alpine/Airtight (From that Special Missions with the Nazi plane stuck in the glacier)
Jinx/Raptor

2009 Comic Pack wave 1
Outback/Quick Kick (Borovia adventure Special Missions)
Tunnel Rat/Lt Falcon (Cobra Civil War)
Qwinn/Dr Venom

It occurs to me that I've just about got everything I wanted from Cobra in this line... I had a hard time coming up with characters and troopers that I really love that haven't already been announced, aside from Mindbender...

Dr. Mindbender....I never would have guessed you wanted to see him... :shifty:

Then you'd never have guessed WRONG, mister!




Wait... does that make sense...?


I would also like to see the return of the TRU 6 packs featuring classic sculpt figures, only this time I'd like to see the line handled properly.

Well we all know that is a no go since :hasbro: has said that its all 25th sculpt from here on out. Well at least thru 2010.

I didn't care for many of the new characters introduced in the 200- relaunch but I'd LOVE to see a 25th style Bombstrike. The Joes really need a few more ladies in their ranks. Throwing in Bombstrike would be a nice nod to newer fans and show that Hasbro is taking the "all 25 years" philosophy seriously.

And Cover Girl really needs the classic treatment.

I'd kill for a Frostbite w/ Snowcat release and that rumored Deep Six w/ S.H.A.R.C. would make me pee myself.

Re: Cobra, Dr. Mindbender and Scrap-Iron are pretty glaring omissions.

I can take or leave Zandar, Zarana, etc.

for cobras I would want scrap iron,zandar, zarana, and wraith if he isn't true, then golobulus and the rest of cobra la,and blackout,armada, and alexander mccullen.
For joes barrel roll, bombstrike,kamakura,lowlight,alpine,dusty,lifeline,sparks, and hit n run

We definitely need a Scrap Iron and Mindbender. I don't so much care about Zandar and Zarana. An AVAC would be great (especially if the Firebat rumor is true). I'm really hoping that the rumor of a Nemesis Enforcer/Falcon 2-pack is also true, and more than anything I'd love to see a Pythona figure (finally). I'd also like a Royal Guard and Golobulus, but I think ol' snake body is probably the figure we're least likely to get, due to the odd, unique, and unreusable tooling that it would require.

Nemesis Enforcer pack's true. NFC had a discussion with Hama at JoeCanuck about the comic. And I shall buy the hell out of it! :-D

I would SO buy a 25th Big Brawler! :bigbrawler:

And from a sales point of view, I think Hasbro should sell a Greenshirt single card.
