One of the bonuses of Joecon is that you can have one on one talks with Hasbro staff..
we came up with an Idea:
If Hasbro decided to make us EXACTLY what we want in a figure, lest say for example, a 7 pack of Female Vipers, at a lower production number, and took PRE ORDERS from fans.
But because of the exclusive direct to fans priocess the price would be slightly larger, lets say 60 bucks instead of the 45 7 pack price. Similar to how Sideshow pre orders their figures.
Would you buy one? or several?

I'm a huge fan of female figures. :cool:
I also know that as a fan of female figs, I know I'm in the minority. :meh
That being said, out of 250+ Cobras in my collection, only 15 are female figures. That means 6% of my Cobras are female, including main character variants, 4 customs, and the :cobra Nightstalkers.* Heck, I even have Munitia.
But I still don't see female figs as something you should "army build." The idea of Roadblock mowing down entire squads of plastic pin-up girls (since they will be sculpted as such), strikes me as. . .disturbing. :shifty
So yes, I might favor another female Cobra--just not as a 7 pack.
*Which isn't even a complete set. I've noticed quite a few collectors who choose to do this, keeping only Commander Bristow and 3 troopers or less.

Hmmm, possibly. Even though I always considered the female cobra troops to be more into espionage and business. Lets have a set of Frans and get Female Crimson guards

:) Oh wait, that would work if the 7-pack included one of each faction: Trooper, Viper, Siegie, etc. :thumbsup

would depend on the final product and what was in it and price.
