I kept hoping we'd see a Coyote, but after they released the Black Dragon VTOL vehicle and it was only a one seater, they probably would have really messed up the Coyote so it held only 2 figs with a pop-up cannon in the back like the Steel Crusher.

My kids and I enjoyed watching Renegades...I was just happy that my daughter was interested in a female cartoon character who wasn't a dumb bitch.

Indeed!

Renegades wasn't terrible, certainly better than the garbage cartoon that was on when we were kids.


I thought the A-Team premise was fucking lazy, though.

it was good and had a lot more potential...unfortunately, stupid townie side missions and booger-vipers kept getting in the way of actual good stories

Yeah. We'll never know what they could have done with it. It was all ARAH Duke's dream.

Heh "Booger Vipers".

Yea the Bio Vipers were very distracting. I would have loved to see a season 2 after they had assembled a real Joe Team.

So I just watched the first episode (finally). I don't get what problem people had with the show. It wasn't that bad. I mean, yeah, the Bio-Vipers were lame, but the rest of it was decent.

Because the plot was a knock-off of The A-Team. It was certainly better than most of the Joe toons before it, but that's not saying a whole lot.


Let us just say it had potential before H killed it prematurely.

yup, I agree, The A-team bothered me at the beginning, but by the end of the season I was hooked and wanted to see them bridge the gap between it and ARAH. They certainly set it up as a possibility.

It had it's moments. I think I enjoyed the depiction of Red Star the most and how the Baroness was so freaking cool in comparison to her other depictions.

The show was definitely way better than Sigma 6

What got old to me was them constantly helping townies...and the booger vipers...and trap jaw Destro...and little kid jinx...and black ripcord...and scrawny nerd breaker...and etc etc...

But by the end, I definitely saw the potential if they had mode on from the "on the run" bit...

My kids loved it. They still ask to watch it about once a week...thankfully Netflix has it on there.

So, basically, you didn't like anything that wasn't ARAH? :thumbsup:
