Sweet & sour panda anyone?

SSC kills more lines than Perry Farrell back stage.

 

[devilof76]

Hey now, Perry's cleaned up his act.

Nowhere to go but up.

Lmao, good one

So true though, teh graveyard is full of them, say what you want about LOTR, but there are plenty of others

Why would they even entertain a TWD line

 

[teemu]

I'd say in 2 months we'll be posting pictures of Destro

Hope so.

Commander, trooper, officer, Zartan, Bludd, Firefly, Destro, and Baroness. Pretty much any other Cobra after this would just be gravy. (Don't get me wrong,I'd like the twins, the noks etc)

well take a hard look at the new cobra commander photo....Destro is hiding behind him

I posted about it on Sideshow's facebook and Mat Bischof liked the comment....if that wasn't a confirmation,I don't know what was

 

[Darth Cruel]

I will give up my GI Joes about the same time as I do my guns...from my cold, dead hands.

The only thing that can stop me from buying the Joes is if Sideshow stops making them and the job gets turned over to Cold Turds...I mean Hot Toys.

It could be worse.

Triad Toys could end up with it.

 

[creature4000]

Need.. B.A.T.S and Noks!

 

[ProgMatinee]

Dreadnoks...I want them so bad, but realistically there's no way SSC could sell enough of them at $150-$180.

We're at the point where only super major characters will ever be made. The Hot Toys model.

 

[lerath666]

disagree. the dreadknocks are VERY simple.

Give them ALL the same hands, same boots, and the same body.

give them the same pants as well, just to keep it simple.

sell them as a 3-pack for 300$.

or instead of teh same gloves, make their gloves recycle city.

enough parts re-use will keep the price down.

 

[lerath666]

... 3 figures for SDCC.

Helmeted Cobra commander
Storm shadow V2
Destro.


just a speculative guess.

My whole point is SSC has no interest in selling anything that requires "keeping the price down" which the nature of 2nd tier characters requires.

I mean, personally I'm all for it. I'd rather spend $100 each on Dreadnoks than $200 on a suped up 2nd version of Snake Eyes or Storm Shadow or even CC.

I'd probably even rather spend $100 on a Dreadnok than $170 for Major Blood.

Thats no longer SSC's game.

your guesses are right...

Destro just got confirmed

SDCC is going to be good...I just hope we can pre-order these at that time.Hate seeing reveals and then having to wait even longer for open pre-orders

I'm not so sure. The Star Wars Cantina band, for example.

I think they're simply interested in turning a profit, and if they Can do that with them, I don't see why the 'Nok's would get skipped.

 

[snakeeyes171]

hell yea destro is coming

I pretty much disagree. Remember how much the first Cantina band member was? $99.99 which was really expensive at the time for such a sparsely equipped figure. Itself was an overpriced item.

That figure took a serious beating and probably only because of that criticism SSC released the subsequent 2 packs at $75per and $80per respectively. Quite the price difference.

I would wager if those 2nd-4th figs weren't simply rehashes with different accessories that they would never have been made because the markup wouldn't have met the requirements.

I understand and agree with your point that much of the noks stuff can be rehashed, but not the major components.

Anyway, I'd much rather you be right than me here.
