What accessories would you like to see Hasbro release with the figures?

1. Laptop computers. For any communications, intelligence, or computer-based figure, this would only make sense. The NS Dr. Mindbender even came with one, so Hasbro's already got one to use.

2. Non-decorative display stands. Something clear and lower to the "ground" would be nice. The labeled display stands look great, but they're not practical for dioramas.

3. Food. A Roadblock figure would be nicely rounded out with a bbq pit with some food molded on it. A more sensible accessory might be generic pouches, which could be painted to be either MRE's or medical supplies.

4. Alternate heads/hands. Hasbro knows that everyone is popping off the heads/hands and swiping them, so why not go with it and give us something extra? Snake-Eyes unmasked. Hands sculpted already holding knifes, etc.

5. Medical supplies. Pop-on casts/splints, like the one Chap Mei's skater kid comes with, would be a welcomed piece of gear for a medical figure. Doc's stretcher and Lifeline's medical case need to get some more rotation, too.

I like the new stands, but the fact that non of the drivers come with them creates the need for hasbro or "someone" to release stands in bulk for purchase.

I like alot of the weapons that have been released so far, some are very realistic, I hope this continues.

I would like to see some generic weapon accessory packs, but without all the goofy colors. Packs with multiples of a few basic rifles, helmets, etc would be great.

Replacement Hands
Backpacks
Rarer weapons (Flash, Torch, Zartan) because everyone comes with either an XMLR-3, M16 or Draugnov
Easily lost or breakable gear, Zartan mask, ninja knives, binoculars, dive gear etc.

Old school style accessory packs. Look at how well the BBI Elite Force sets do when they come out. A simple variety of themes including factions (Joe, Cobra, etc) environments (SCUBA, arctic, desert etc) and even troopbuilder packs with the standard trooper helmet (Joe and Cobra) and the Joes coming with the cartoon rifle and Cobra with a decent AK in adequate numbers to create a nice squad or diorama.

Oh and critters. New sculpted critters. Snakes, crocs, dogs, birds, monkeys. Seriously I want critters. Can't explain it, just the way it is.

ok thats kinda wierd to give the Joes the Cartoon rifle and then arming Cobra with a decent AK when they didn't use the AK's in the cartoon, it'd be more fitting to give them thier cartoon rifle if your giving Joes thier cartoon rifle. My Joes don't use the cartoon rifle except Snow Job. I like the regular real weapons myself.

Ditto on the Food and medical supplies.

now that theyre making backpack holes standard, variation of backpacks should be made.

I would also like to see some tools.

.....but then agian, I wouldnt want anyhting to compete with the Marauder. (if HE comes out with backpacks and food,.. then its over for everyone else!!!)

Got to agree on the medical gear! have been waiting for someone to produce some nice medical gear for a long time.

would also like to see some personal radios so that all the Joes / cobras could be given them.

Would also like to see some decent rock climbing equipment.

I'm going to echo the statement about needing animals. And animals with articulation, too. Just throw a few joints onto Timber next time. The bendy snake that came with Coil Crusher was a step in the right direction.

These are all great ideas! Maybe an arctic gear-up pack with parkas for Cobra Troopers and Joes.
