If they'd made a STINGER last year, instead of a tacky-looking Cobra Snow Cat, would've sold better?

I'm not one to talk, didn't buy anything from last year.

Rattler and Stinger would have been much better than the "tacky-looking"cat and the ugly/weird painted sky striker. I gave the striker away as it's a hard one to store, and ugly....didn't give the cat a second thought....no need for anything in that set...

they probably would have just re-released Wild Weasel, which is a great 25th figure!
the SDCC set is actually a lot of fun! Never had an open rattler or that hiss version, so cracking that open was a treat
