Here-to-fore unheard of toy retailer announces that Hasbro plans to release the SHARC w/ Deep Six for the 25th Line!

Unknown board member says that Hasbro alerts him the release is tagged for a Q4 2008 release!

With all the Deep Six lovers on the board here, let's get our yak on about our favorite cold fish.

Deep Six: YES!
Another SHARC: Uhg!
$22.95: Ouch!

_________________

I'll buy it for Deep Six and give the the vehicle away just like I did for Grand Slam in the Target set.

Well it will be the first general release of the sharc. Lets hope its grey.

Like I said in the JBL version of this thread, that ToyGlobe company is Canadian and thus that's $22.95 Canadian.




/Which prolly means it'll be about $40 USD what with the way the buck is tanking.

I'll wait and see what's shown at Joecon and SDCC before getting my hopes up.

However... should this prove true I think I'll just pee myself. No... wait... I WILL pee myself. Oh yes full frontal warm wetness. And I won't be ashamed of it either.

Meh....another SHARC? I'll stick with the $10 one I just--

HOLY CRAP! HOLY CRAP! FIREBAT! FIREBAT! I AM OVERWHELMED WITH JOY!

Come on, Darko, everyone knows that Deep-Six is hotter than AVAC.

These should retail for the same $15 that the other vehicle packs retail at.

I REALLY, REALLY want this to be true, but with so many 25th rumors circulating online, I don't take much stock in what's being reported until there's some sort of confirmation (usually from Hasbro themselves).

Haven't picked up any of the Target vehicles yet, but if I do, I'll probably just be snagging the Striker. I don't need Grand Slam in my collection badly enough to buy a Spectre, especially if Hasbro's going to re-rerelease the Sharc again with Deep Six, whom I'd much rather have.

I'm really hoping for a super-poseable Deep Six v1-- even though the original had little articulation, I remember having some cool poolside adventures with DS and the Sharc when I was a kid. I've always loved divers and especially dig the figure's clear bubble helmet, so I'm crossing my fingers that's the look we'll get.

If this news is true, I'm definitely psyched.

A super-articulated Deep Six in v1 style could be an absolute winner. Throw in a Firebat with AVAC and i'm not coming anywhere near personal cash holdings for the forseeable future

For some reason I am feeling something akin to suprise that they may still have the Firebat toolings, but I'm not sure why...

That would be a tasty treat for certain, but I don't plan my meals until I see the official menu.

Deep Six, if done articulated in version 1 style will rock my face off

I really hope the firebat is two seater like the cartoon.

...never heard that expression before. i will have to try it out today on my co-workers...


a shark/sharc/spectre question: do these things 'sit up' ? like a nose-in-the-air-type way?

//if i'm getting more than one, i'll need them to sit like dominos on the Flagg deck...

If it is a VI style articulated I am there.

However I thought of a better one. Figure with Dive suit (somewhat similar to the Snake Armor). That way you can have DS in the water or out (and if they wanted to go cheap, the suitt really doesn't have to be as posible since it is a deep sea suit).

I think I like that last thought the best.

I really don't believe this rumor. No one I trust, has even heard of this, much less confirmed it. If Hasbro had news of this, this far in advance, we would have seen something from Toyfair, New York Comic Con, or the Canadian Convention. I'm not saying it will never happen, I just don't buy that this store got some product listing that nobody anywhere else has ever seen.
