That's who I wish they used instead, personally. That AT head looks ok on 25th bodies with an homage to the old doll line, but it looks goofy.
Now that the exclusives are announced, the only other thing I'm looking forward to hearing about is the FSS3 line up. Sounds like it will be announced during the Club's panel at 3pm tomorrow.
I'll PM you this weekend about sending it your way. Need any of the others? MW and I split both series, and I have most of mine still.
SWG, if you need GI Joe stuff, you can hit me up as well. Between Fogger and myself, I'm guessing we could supply just about any Joe part.
Well I'll be honest, I don't know what's out there or what would be good to cast. I don't usually buy EVERYTHING when it comes to GI Joe. It's just that when Topside's name came up, it reminded me that several people on eBay contacted me looking for him. Other than that, what's hot? lol
Not sure what's in demand, SWG. Night Viper helmets, maybe? I grabbed 4 off TofuJesse to outfit my Jungle Vipers as alt helmets. Even though they're popping up at TRU and 5Below, many people are still looking.
Maybe the Ozone and Clean Sweep heads will be in demand since they are new sculpts.

And for some reason my work computer decided today to fuck with me about eBay. Gonna have to wait until I get home to check into a NF Crazy Legs.
I was checking eBay for the Crazy Legs, and came across this.

The 2013 Cobra Stealth Trooper sold in the January for $50. I think I saw one prior to that go for around $75. I'm guessing Crazy Legs won't go that low. My limit is $100 and I think he'll easily be higher than that.
Those links...makes me realize something I already know...Joe fan scalpers are serious a$$holes, and Joe collectors who buy from the Joe fan scalpers are morons...
Jeeze, what an idiotic, douchey community...

And other collecting communities aren't? If Star Wars had these types of exclusives, you'd see the same level of scalping.
Silly question - is this convention sanctioned by Hasbro? Will these exclusive items show up on HTS next week? Or am I stuck paying $80 for a Steel Brigade Zombie figure if I really want one... ?
If they're anywhere, they'd be here:

I really like Greek/Roman mythology, but I don't know that I need a lot of figures of that era of human myth/history. I can't imagine a huge number of people waning to make peloponnesian war dios... but maybe I'm wrong.
However, I do think they're going to produce some neat parts that I can use for a series of MOTU customs I've been planning for a while. So I'm excited about these nonetheless.

I like the Medusa, but the pre-cursed version confuses me as well. Why does she have snakes for hair and green skin before she was "cursed"? She was beautiful before her curse, that's why she was turned ugly. I seriously doubt that Poseidon would have hit that if she had those snakes for hair from day one.
