    Retooling these into Moonrock and Missile Master is such a no-brainer that I'm surprised Hasbro hasn't done it. Maybe Selects (along with the Astro Squad redone into Vanquish and Fireshot).

    Am I crazy or was there another listing for another micromaster multipack that someone found evidence of a few months ago like the Target pack from Siege? This combiner set could really be repainted/tooled a few times.

    Not with each other unfortunately which completely negates their gimmick.

    But the two teams are not compatible with each other, unlike G1 where you could mix and match anyone with anyone.

    Which seems like a huge missed opportunity. On par with the ER/TR ramps not being compatible with one another.

    That would be interesting to see, especially as it would at least give us two-thirds of their respective Squads. Give the kinds of retooling that Selects receive, though, I imagine Vanquish and Fireshot might look a bit less like an SR-71 Blackbird. Granted, they could also always make Blackout and Spaceshot into a shuttle instead...

    Yeesh. These guys are great, but as completionist and a map collector: when are the repacks going to end?

    I don't think Hasbro has officially solicited this wave to online retailers yet, so we can only guess based on what people find on the pegs along with these.

    I was referring to the Race Team. Having both DPCI's would be useful for hunting.

    Oh yikes it's a Wave 1 repack plus the new stuff. Hate that. Wave 1 is still pretty common in stores, and now there's going to he MORE of it.
