Donno who Wreckage is, but I've passed on all Tiger Force figures and sets so far. I'll stick with the Cobra version.
That was fast turnaround for the repaint. We knew the Tiger Force repaint would be coming but man they got to it quick this time. Still that's a fun driver - if I'm not mistaken Wreckage was part of the later Tiger Force crew in the 2000's right?
Anyway, glad I only ordered one of the other quads so I won't feel bad ordering this one the way I did with the Python Patrol Trouble Bubble.
@panthercult yeah they did the same thing with the bubble so when I saw the price point, i assumed target would do a $45 Ferret asap. I'm really glad I waited because I love this trooper, and the tiger force helmet.

Wreckage, kind of like Shooter, was a character that never made it into an actual figure previously. This is the first time he’s been made into plastic.

He did!
I was gonna say, Wreckage has had a couple figures including a Tiger Force version. I may have to get this for the ATV. I don't really need Wreckage since he wasn't part of the RAH 80's/90's line. But the ATV looks cool in Tiger Force colors.
Hasbro can consume mass quantities of phallus with their exclusives. Missed the ferret. I was planning on getting two. I'm not buying the graffitied TF version. The Ferret is a strictly COBRA vehicle. That's my head-canon.
Dang, hear about Wreckage/TF Ferret on Wednesday, Thursday morning it drops on Pulse. I guess maybe it's going to drop at Target tomorrow as part of their Haulathon? I'll be patient and grab it there on discount. I definitely want the TF Ferret and even though Wreckage breaks my "vintage only" rule he's a cool enough figure to grab, too.
Wreckage and TF Ferret sold out quick. Glad I got one.
I was surprised to see a Pulse notification this morning - by the time I opened it up Wreckage was sold out. I haven't been buying the Tiger Force stuff so not too fussed, just surprised to see something get revealed and sell out so quick! I'm sure there will be plenty at Target.
Missed the photos of the TF ferret yesterday and was walking the dog when the email came in so I missed it even with Premium. I'll just try to grab one from Target. not a huge need but I do like the TF looks for the different characters.
Anyone find the link on Target yet?
Target hasn’t seemed to put it up for preorder. I wouldn’t be too bothered. Every TF and PP offering seems to have been readily available. It looks cool. I honestly want one for my TF Roadblock.
Thwipp!
Yeah.... going live on Pulse before 7 am on the West Coast is kind of a weird move.... and it isn't live on Target yet. I'm not worried about getting one though.
