A few years ago hasbro was releasing alot of 6 packs of the fan favorite items like tiger force, night force, cobra night watch, cobra soldiers. Some of the there were really cool other were kinda weird.
i was always wondering why they did not take the time to do a six pack or comic 3 pack of figures that were characters in the comics...or at least more time cause i think they missed some big ones...like Dr Venom.
They did Quin but he looked silly with a head half the size it should have been. I would liked to have seen the hard and soft masters as they appeared in the comic. also the blind master again as he appeared in the comic. the october guard was ok. i would venture a guess that they never got there (made more comic characters) as the line did not sell too well...and i think it did not sell to well cause there were way to many snake eyes, cobra commanders and storm shadows...
The reason i mention this is that i am re-reading the entire comics series via the reprinting of the series in graphic novels, of which there is only one left in the 15 issues series.
Anyone else reading these or has thought of this before?
Anyone think a white clown and his wife might have been ok? or that sheik fellow the on middle east country? any other thoughts?

I'm guessing that they don't do more of the 6-packs is because they likely make more money on the single carded figures. I was totally digging the 25th Anniversy line and they were doing a great job with it on the remakes and obscure figures then just stopped with ROC, POC, and Renagades which while ROC did have a healthly run especially for a movie figure line the other two really are found very lacking in my opinion. I hope the new movie brings a strong line with as much creativity as ROC.
