    That’s why I aim for the characters there is likely a snowballs chance in hell for Hasbro to make. Like these two Spy Troops pack-mates.

    Question

    Will the officer be available tonight 8pm at other retailers? Or is this a pulse exclusive?

    Is that 5 regular BATs, 5 PP BATs, 5 PP Vipers, 5 Officers and 5 Alley Vipers? You're going to need new display cases. Or more of them, at least!

    That's what I understood from the video. We'll find out shortly, I guess.

    Same here, for some reason I was thinking this was a Friday event. I guess I have to learn how to use a calendar.

    Wasn't there suppose to be a live stream that we got an email invite for though? Or I am just a complete moron and missed that as well?

    Anyway, grabbed an officer and a CI Trooper as well. Trooper is in stock because I could pay with PayPal.

    Maybe I’m overthinking it, but it did stand out that Hasbro offered a PIT crew for the Haslab Skystriker as a stretch goal. The original joe HQ toy had some stations where you could park ground vehicles and a helipad. Maybe the PIT/HQ is planned for next year or 2023 with an optional attachable runaway and/or hardened aircraft shelter? I remember if the PIT had a runway nearby but given that it was meant to be modular, it’s not too much of a stretch to have 1 nearby.

    Presumably already have an Officer on order with BBTS. Hopefully they'll put up singles soon and I'll grab a second plus (TF) Lift-Ticket from there.

    I think I got an email about the 1027 event a couple days ago. Lotta good it did…I’ve been doing field work all week and couldn’t watch it anyway. On the bright side, it doesn’t look like I really missed out on anything.

    Missed the BAT and Viper because I was out of town. The BAT was one of those "must get" figures for me, and missing it still has me bummed out.
    Really don't want to miss the Alley Viper.

    They could take a page from Lego and make a single square runway piece. Sell them in a two pack, and then you can buy as many as you want for more runway.

    This was that one. Congrats on the extra Trooper, too! Pulse wouldn't let me get another. :)
