'Gear Of War' Weapon Set- Reduced Missile Size Images

Given the target audience for these, wouldn't it make sense to include versions for all the characters who need them? Black launcher with silver missile for Sideswipe, smaller version of same colour for Mirage, black launcher and red missile for Red Alert, etc? I'd be happy to buy a set that was a load of missiles, launchers, and the Auto Scout without the ladder.

Mirage's missile still seems too big.

Yeah, it's really stupid to have the missiles in random colors and come with the ladder and Autoscout. Why not sell them each separately?

Random colors? I would like to pay randomly. Anyway, All I want is the ladder for Inferno.

Can anybody tell me how the silver missle fits on Mirage as there is no hole there like on Sideswipe. I thought it clipped on before but now I see that the launchers for him have a peg too.

I agree with Magnus on this. When it comes to ordnance SIZE DOES MATTER!! Besides, after looking at those pictures it was like looking at a 12 ounce can and then making a 10 ounce can to put next to it. Not a whole heck of a lot of appreciable difference there. And for the size of the missle launchers we only get 2 out of the 3 and the colors are random. Yeah, I'll be appreciating that when I'm holding my red and silver launchers in one hand and my black and white Prowl figure in the other wondering where the hell my black missle launcher is to offset his white one. I'm not trying to be a whiner just poining out that they are making a marketing error if they wish to keep the sellabliity of this package at it's peak. The drone I like, the ladder I don't need and the missle launchers would be cool but...
No sale.

THIS SUCKS!! I loved the missles as they were pictured. i dont want different colors, nor do I want smaller missles because a few online nerds were complaining about the size. But of course someone has to ruin it for the rest of us. So NO, I am not buying these anymore.

imo they still look stupid, only interested in the ladder now if only i could get separately

Ok, first off: you're here. That makes you an "online nerd." Second, us nerds are the target audience for this. Third, you're the only person I've seen complain about this, so it would seem more accurate to say that everyone else has ruined it for you. Finally, I don't quite understand what you're complaint about the missiles colour is. Before you would have got a randomly-coloured set. Now you get one of each and can mix the colours however you want. Isn't that better?
