I hope the Reinforcements have some limits... I dont want to see an Avatar in Morats or a Swiss Guard in Svalarheima
I really like the new armbots. really follows the design philosophy of the dronbots, while looking more aggressive and militaristic like they ought to be
Not that it affects me personally in any way (as I own the old versions of all the relevant models), but I find it odd that the Armbots got resculpted in siocast, while Sputniks were just repacked from old kits in metal. Oh well. CB logic. Can't get behind it.
By this time I put it all on personal preference. Someone in charge at CB said "But I like the old Sputnik and Tsyklon!", and so in go the old models in the new box. The same reason why every month during product development meeting when someone says "How about a new Tik?" they get the same response: "I lost to the Tik three times in a row, so I took it out of production and he's never getting a model again!" Or something like that...
Personally i hope that for YJ we get Imperial service :D. I love them models and it would be another reason to get them. Just thinking on some new agents model :P. Also wouldn't they be fluff wise, the better choice? As in the mission went awry, we need to send inquisitors or dedicated assassins to set things right XD
The old Sputniks are still valid sculpts that are individual and not based on the "hull" of an old OOP remote, both Bulleter and peacemaker are. The only thing that could warrant a resculpt for Sputniks is that their weapons are not easily identifiable, not a top priority in my opinion.
As an owner of two Lunokhods, two Tsyklons, two Bulleteers and a Peacemaker, I really don't have a dog in this fight. I just wonder why they decided to repack the Suptniks rather than resculpt them. But then again, it isn't said anywhere that I have to understeand everything :D

Yopu are entitled to your own opinion, man. However, I have no problem with siocast models. Not that thay are perfect (they aren't), but generally acceptable for me.
Eh, may be. May be one day I would used to it and stop touching siocast on each opportunity. But next time. I am working on it) And I really want some separated auxbots...
I hope rhe REM Racers become reinforcement troopers, I like their concept but I don't want to play a generic faction army. Or they just don't sell enough after the Vostok was introduced to justify new sculpts.
Agreed. While ISS has not been officially killed off, they have received nothing new, other than one character, in years. And that one character is not exclusive to ISS. He’s also available to WB. I’m not sure but I think the last new ISS figure was the Kanren hacker. I hope for either something totally new, most likely, or maybe new Bao troops. I hope they are not doing “Navy” troops. We don’t know about the new MRRF troops. MRRF does have troops in Kosmo, which is their space troops.
