I just open the thing up and I seem to be missing the missiles. I'm going to just go ahead and think I'm stupid and didn't pull them out from somewhere, but... where exactly are they supposed to be in the packaging / on the figure.

Kind of bumming me out that I don't see 'em.

edit: Never mind xP I finally found it. For anyone who has this, Hasbro decided to play ninja with the missiles and medical bay accessory. They rolled them up in a little baggy and stuffed them in the bottom corner of Roller's plastic holding thingy. I didn't rip it out to get the figure out so I didn't see it... and it doesn't exactly stand out where it's located.

That is actually good to know. I probably wouldn't have thought to look there at first. Reminds me of how the cape for the Death Star Darth Vader was taped to the inside of the box so some people threw it out with the trash without realizing it!

Got a mini-catalog in the mail from TRU - this set is now on sale for $24.

Pretty much what it was at when I bought it at Target, but I had the $5 off coupon so I managed to get my hands on it for $20 :3

It's a nice little play set. Only real issue I have with it is the cyberverse figures seem too big for it, especially the Commander class, despite Hasbro claiming both commander and legion are meant for the playset xP You get 3 legions and a commander class figure on there and it seems pretty crowded. Lol. That aside, I do think it's worth buying

If they wanted to make the Ark to scale with Cyberverse figures, the Ark would have to be the size of a coffee table, like that old G.I. Joe aircraft carrier from the 80s.

I didn't mean it had to be to-scale as far as the movie is concerned. I meant the commander class, quite literally, takes up one whole platform of the ark and the thing only has 5 1/2 platforms (1/2 being the small upper deck), of which only two and a half platforms really support the size of the commander class figures. And at that point the ark is stating to feel crowded. It'd have been a more "comfortable" fit for the figures if it were a bit bigger, say 1.5x the size. The fact they're advertising the commander class for the set is a bit ridiculous given how they don't fit very well. The legion class works better, but only barely.

Hell, even the turrent under the raised 1/2 platform barely fits a legion class, height wise.
