Well, Jungle Cobra Commander is missing from all of this and he was to be a new mold with the mail-in's head. Wonder what happened to that?

General Hawk has one of the Hasbro press shots on this page:

Wow what a difference a few months makes! What we saw at the Con has really gone out the window. It's the aPOCalypse

MIA:

Desert Battle Ripcord
Arctic Threat Duke
City Strike Scarlett
Elite Ice Viper
Shadow Tracker
Desert Battle Heavy Duty
Jungle Assault Cobra Commander
Jungle Assault Storm Shadow
Training Gear Duke

Armored Panther with Outback
Cycle Armor with Ashiko
HISS Attack Scout with Sand Viper
Sand Snake with Star Viper

Jungle Duke and Zartan have new heads.

I would guess that we'll see Shadow Tracker minus the Neo Viper mask, Arctic Threat Duke with a new head, Training Duke with a new head, and Desert Ripcord with a new head next year. Elite Ice Viper and Desert Battle Heavy Duty are probably gone for good since they're repaints.

Jungle Assault Cobra Commander will probably see release as is, maybe with a new head. Jungle Assault Storm Shadow, and City Strike Scarlett will find their unique parts and gear recycled while the figures themselves are binned.

The 3 Alpha Class vehicles will probably show up as wave 1 2011. Sand Snake is probably doomed Hopefully we see Star Viper somewhere down the line.

Mail away Cobra Commander as a chase figure SUCKS! I'd better be able to find one for each of my nephews

Sgt. Slaughter SDCC exclusive = WOO-HOO!!! Can't wait for that one!

also, retailers like chase figures.




The theory being that chase figure keep us returning to stores thus making us purchase other things.


Still they've said that he won't be as hard to get as clear Wraith, so that's something at least.

Yeah, I read on General Hawk's site that it should be like the white/black coat Rex. I've never seen the white coat Rex.

I was hoping these would be good base figures for RoC young Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow. Might be a bit too much work.

I'm sure it will come out in some form, eventually. I'm sure Hasbro will find a way to get most of that stuff out, maybe as an exclusive.

Thanks, J_Man.

Wow....those suck. Bad articulation, Appa's face is terrible, and they still won't do a Katara figure...nice.

Back to the Joes...its kinda funny. There's alot of figures/toys I don't see myself buying. But, overall, the designers did a really nice job overall. To me, that shows Hasbro still cares about the line.

I'm also wondering about this. Justin posted a pic here, and I don't have an original Snowcat to compare it to, but it definitely looks like it might be rubber treads. If so, this would go from "Maybe" to "Buy" in an instant.
