Technodrome down to 56 on Amazon, lowest I’ve seen.

They are reissuing the Module, Foot Cruiser, and Sewer Playset, along with solo figures Wyrm, Chromedome, and some cobra looking Mutant I don't know the name of. Plus surfer Mike.

Scale-Tail is the cobra.  I just need for them to do Hot Spot and Scratch already.  It will be nice to have an Antrax with his antennae though.  I improvised for mine and used pieces from (I think) Chrome Dome's weapon. Most of the old vintage ones are missing them these days.

The Foot Cruiser is one of the few things from the vintage line I always wanted as a kid, but never got (don't weep for kid Misfit, I had plenty) so I may have to gift the reissue to my inner child. What's a little iffy for me is in the video Pixel Dan shot the rep admitted the vehicles on display were actual vintage vehicles and not what's getting released. He said there would be no change, but that would be a departure from what they've been doing.

I just recently put my original Foot Cruiser back together. The gunner station is broken at the hinge, and the foot step panels are missing from the sides. The reissue is very welcome. Never had the Module or Sewer playset, so I’m really psyched about those.

I'm pretty excited about the Module, that was a favorite of mine as a kid (along with the Shreddermobile, which seems to be forgotten among most). I'm looking very forward to this re-release. 

In the Pixel Dan interview, the rep also confirmed that the Sewer Playset is the same size as the original one (the box is smaller, but the playset is not). It will also connect with the Technodrome they just released. Sounds like maybe they took the complaints of the Technodrome to heart?
