good report bro like you I guess, I m an early 82 adopter, had most of the line, and a Cobra army to match mostly I was really pleased by the story evolution into a new faction, and Destro was a good concept to me. it was sadly the end of my collecting days for sport car payments reasons. so I never could buy more than 1 demon and razorback, a flying pod, and the despoiler. 10x reg troopers, and one of each types afterwards and it ended there. so yeah, I skipped reg Destro hoping we d get to this.... the continuation of the story I pre ord 10x of each type, 'expensive enterprises' $ ha, ha. I had hoped for a Destro inspired head for his bats, but, the different head will do. and at least we have a choice, a sure thing is that I ll give them the troopers rifles as it looks better to me. I go only for 2x for divers and arctic, desert, as I have no matching dio yet. and while my current dios can t take more than 20 - 30 figs at max, there will be few occasions where I use them all [20] I just want flexibility for the future, as I m building a Destro tower outpost with super weapon and I intent to use all his army to protect his base, it s 5 levels 4' tall, it s mainly a ventilator support in disguise. and it will have to take attackers on each level, the action, Joes, Cobra, shield, hydra, aim. depending on my mood, I change the action weekly or so, and save on dusting. so now you know... good show bro
