The Oktober Guard is a close 2nd.

wow! maybe just maybe this could be the Quarrel figure that we saw?

Imagine something old: This is Action Force or the RED SHADOWS or BOTH

SOmething new : 25th style figures

Something Foreign : another nod to the RED SHADOWS and ACTION FORCE

NOthing Blue : THIS IS THE RED SHADOW


thank you so much for posting this Goldbug

if this turns out, then Im actually going to be a paying member of the club and actually order several!
WHOS WITH ME!

Actually the club is limited to the old figures. They can't do any 25th style ones.
If it is the Red Shadows are we going to have a British invasion for the convention? :D

see the convention people have indeed said OVER and OVER that 25th is out of thier touch for a couple of years, but I do find it strange that we have seen a 25th style quarrel with hasbro saying no plans but the source ( very reliable) showing it and has a record of not ever showing something that hasnt come out before

dont get me wrong Ill take both, just strange , I could see hasbro changing thier minds on some of this

Yeah, The Collector Club cant use any 25th molds for 7 years, I believe. If I had a guess I'd say a foreign mix of figures and villians. I figure Action Force/ Commandoe en Acao being a focus.

"nothing blue" could certainly mean green - I.e the quarrel. There's the old saying "blue and green should never be seen, unless being worn by a beauty queen". Depends how cryptic they're being.

OK, if it is Shads or indeed other series 2 chaps, how do we get them if we can't get to the convention?
When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

Even if it's the SHADOWS making a comeback, I'm not interested in the old ARAH moulds. It's originl AF or 25th style for me right now.

They usually have a non attendee package available

but be warned this usually SELL OUT and fast so I would recommend the day it comes online is the day you order your sets

I know I am

if its the shadows or Action Force there will be a comic as well as they will always be doing a comic for the convention, so make sure you order that as well too!
