Agreed. Perhaps something :zforce: :idea:
When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

I'm thinking something that is relatively easy for them to do, where the moulds already exist and it's just the colour that needs changing - like SAF set was last year. So who do we have 25th figs or vehicles of that they could repaint? I'd guess they'd always avoid the ones that are too similar to their main figs to protect the main toy line, so that would sort of take us away from Red Laser or Red Jackal.

Snake armour is there still, but that's a bit too Cobra I'd say.

SAS figure would be very easy for them, and would keep the SAF thing going. Beaver with Silent Attack? Do they do a modern style :recondo:

Stalker with a black VAMP?

Agree with you Steve, the Black Vamp would be great. There is currently a ROC snake armour out as well, looks lovely in black!

considering the fact that the Crimson Strike Force was a redo of a previous set, i don't see as that makes a hell of a difference.

i'd agree it'd be a wasted effort, but...

Falcon repainted as :skip: would be cool. or Flint. or some sort of Flint/Falcon hybrid as :skip:...

I'm almost convinced if there's any SAF to it, it'll be :hunter: - foreign and not blue...
