Not a bad lineup. 2 brand new characters was unexpected.
I'm glad the case assortments are sensible (1 of each 2 pack per case) but I fully expect to be stuck with a load of Snake Eyes / Storm Shadow sets after everything else has sold.

This is great, espeically considering the general expectation there would be no product outside the Club and SDCC this year. Pretty inevitable they'd do yet more versions of the old standards, though kudos to Hasbro for not doing another Cobra Commander.

I'm not personally a fan of the modern construction (I'd rather have o-rings and waists than mid-torso joints) but my longtime collecting focus has included having at least one (or the only) version of each distinct character, so I'm particularly interested in Stilletto, Tombstone and Shooter. Have to ask Dave Tree if he'll be getting any in All The Cool Stuff, or look into Entertainment Earth.
