Steeler looks absolutely NOTHING remote to the original sculpt. The orig. Steeler was one of the first really 'fine' figures in form, regards to sharp sculpt and detail. And where is his sig. visor?? Plus, the same Serpentor figure, w/ the same file card.

The only pieces worth collecting I feel, and really dig, plus points on Hasbro's part, is the new vehicle file cards!! Now those are tough.. Awesome file cards!!

I'll probably pass on picking it up as I've never been a fan of Serpentor. Also maybe its just me but the 25th Anniversary figures are too big for the original vehicles. They look funny next to them or in them. I might get the trouble bubble set though if I ever see it.
I've only ever seen this set and the Hiss Tank in stores and the Hiss driver was missing his head...

"One item I hadn't quite figured out is the elevation of the cannons. While the original seemed to stay in place, the new cannons tend to snap back down, and if you're fighting an aerial opponent like Steeler is, that's a problem."

I think Patrick has missed one of the little packaging rubber bands that goes from the guns up under the turret that keeps the guns from staying elevated. I found that to be a strange one that hasbro threw in there myself.

Cool review though
