Got my vamp and I'd echo most of norms sentiments.

 

The only issue I have is the ammo cans just "sitting" on the back not having a real firm way of attaching feels like a mistake.

 

I didn't get the hiss and I haven't gotten any version of the bike since I missed breaker but I like this thing alot and should go well with my custom side by side.

@yojoebro82 Yeah I have to admit that the pics and videos are getting me hyped for the VAMP.  Can't wait for mine to arrive.

I probably have watched 5 VAMP videos in the last 24 hours.  HAHAHA

It really does look like a great redo of the original with the little extra touches the Classified scale allows.

Forgive me for not having room for a photography setup, but this thing is awesome!  I'm really really happy with this release.

fun pics fuzzy!  no need for a photography diorama display, personally I dig seeing toys being toys, looking small in a big room, and they look great.  i have Grunt riding shotgun on mine but Rock N Roll looks perfect back there.

I had the worst time getting the lights to clip onto the bar above the windshield until I realized there is a groove and a tab that should go together.  Mine kept just popping off.  That said I really can't find anything to complain about here.  I think it is nothing short of a miracle in this day and age that Hasbro can give us a vehicle this nice AND a figure for $99.  Especially considering what some companies charge for just a figure.

@justice I had the exact same experience with the lights, they were driving be crazy!  Then I noticed the notch on the back side of the bar & my only nitpick fell by the wayside.

@fuzzybluedemon yeah I had gone to get the super glue before I did a closer inspection and noticed.  Glad I didn't glue now.

That’s the first pic I’ve seen with a gunner on back. It’s what I want to do. RnR blasting away on back. Bazooka firing off a shot is sweet. My wonder is why they didn’t make a ledge on back. It seems it’s just a bar. Great pics. 

Thwipp!

@prophet I was surprised by the lack of a little platform on the back as well.  I guess this gun turret is meant to fire from inside the vehicle?  But hey, as long as you can get a good grip on the guns, he's not going anywhere.  

Thanks for the kind words guys, I'm having a ton of fun with this thing!

@purplelantern I have not seen the Bats , Shipwreck, or Copperhead at Ross yet, but I finally saw the Snake Eyes and white Timber set at Ross today for $11.99. Like Crocmaster, I couldn’t resist one more set at that price. Lol.

We moved this week (homeowners - finally!) and the VAMP was waiting for me at the new place. Probably going to be a while before I open it up as I've now got my entire collection to unbox, but those pics are awesome and getting me hyped. Glad I didn't pass on it! I'm behind on Classified in general, but something told me I should jump on this one.

A great way to christen a new house!

I don't really have any interest in the VAMP, but I always loved the Stinger and I feel like we have to be getting one fairly soon now that the VAMP is out.

Got the Vamp today and it’s awesome! So many accessories that clip on.  Great details on the dashboard. Cool suspension for the wheels. Great size. Clutch is awesome especially with that cool helmet. Really nice set overall.
