Would you welcome a Python Patrol 5-Pack or rather get them on single cards?

What COBRA figures would you want in Python Patrol?

I'd like to see the original roster with Copperhead on a single card & a 5-Pack with the Trooper, Officer, Viper, Tele-Viper & Crimson Guard. That way we could army build squads & not be left over with tons of a unique character.

I've always thought Firefly & Baroness would look pretty cool in Python Patrol uniforms too.

Pass

box set, carded, no matter, new versions of PP holds no interest for me.

As much as NFC dislikes the thought, that's how much I like it. There's just something about PP that I've always liked, and would love to have new representations of them.

box set, carded, no matter, I'll still be buying 5 to 10 of each either way.

PP sucks as does tiger force, I wouldn't buy any of them, I only bought flint since he has fixed parts and just keep him in package...

The thought of any more Python Patrol or Tiger Force figures, no matter how many in a pack, nearly overwhelms me with Meh. Night Force too.

Edit: I realize that these subteams are popular with some folks, but hey, I didn't buy 'em the first time, I won't buy 'em this time. i'd rather see the resources invested in getting the non repaints done right the first time.

Dude, thank you. Thought I was the only one!

If I have to vote, I say box set, so it keeps em out of waves of single cards and makes room for others. That said, thanks to these characters, my preorder from HTS this month was only $105!

Sigh.

I bought them the first time they came out because the other figures during those years sucked. :-P
The only thing that bothered me was Frostbite :frostbite2: being part of he team.

What 'Load said. The black, yellow, green scheme is ass-ugly and I don't want none of it. In fact, if the whole Python subset is built around the 'radar invisibility technology' idea; why *would* the uniforms look differently from the vehicles?

Hhowever, a 5pack would be the way to go for the nameless guys, with Copper and extra troopers that were never part of the original PP set as singles.

Tan, if you're not taking Flint out of his prison, why do you care about fixed parts? It's like your Prom date telling you about her new piercing and you keeping her in her clothes. It makes no damn sense to me at all.

I'd buy either singles or 5 packs but I'd prefer singles. Python Patrol ROCKS!

I would love a 25th Python Patrol pack. And some vehicle repaints to go with it.

Yeah! How are you going to have sex with your action figures if you keep them in the package?

....wait, I may have overextended the metaphor. :shifty:

For sure! That scheme was far superior, and actually matched the vehicles, which I liked far more than the figures back in the day, out of this subset. Actually though, PP and Night Force were the only two classic subsets I really liked anyways.

I'd buy a Python Patrol 5-pack. I'd also buy them single carded although it would be much better if they were all released at once. Like a Python Wave or something (now THERE's an idea, Hasbro :whistling: )

First I'd like to see the original roster but with the yellow fixed and made into gold (like the 2002 Python Patrol) and then maybe later I'd like to see the new Python Patrol too.

Never really found Python Patrol all that appealing so I'd pass. I think they could make some nice looking figures, just wouldn't be something I felt I needed for my own collection.
