    G.I. Joe Classified Series (1:12)

    The one I posted was the 25th (notice the stick and the nose gun), but yeah, I do remember that other one now. I don't think I ever saw it out of the package though. What an abomination.

    I don't remember a gimpy WM fang. Was this a real version or a customized Corps product you are referencing? I remember the 25th being pretty true to the original:

    Starduster, but more interestingly, looks like Fangs are on the way (from the back of the box art). https://toynewsi.com/278-53883

    Those are pretty cool looking, but yeah, I would need to invest in a he-shed to even consider 1:12 vehicles of that magnitude. 😆 Being under the weather, I took the opportunity this morning to actually start reading some of the history/background articles in the AoGARAH Omnibus. Very...

    I guess it’s a good thing that H’bro is making some of the foreign characters too. Was she actually a NF character back in the day?

    That is a huge improvement, both for Falcon and as a more interesting Steel Brigade duo! Who the heck is Quarrel though? A Glenda repaint? 😆

    Yeah, I know, but I also know my persuasion to not follow through with it. And once I breach the vehicle door, who knows what happens next? :LOL:

    Dang, that's tempting. I think I'll hold out to see what loose SWs are going for - hopefully for about the retail of a packaged fig or so. As cool as it is, I really have nowhere for the bike to go, despite the low additional cost with the deal. At this point, I have to make a tough call on...

    So, while I wasn't really planning to, I picked up a Helix and a Breaker on the cheap - not an easy task on Mercari these days. I actually like both figs pretty well, but wouldn't have paid full price for either, especially not for the bike too. I am strongly considering getting a Jinx head...

    I think WW, gunner and a minimal ground crew make the most sense. Maybe they could make the gunner a generic flight suited female and provide a Baroness head to meet both the troop and character goals. It'd be cool to see an female crewperson in an actual flight suit, not just the cliché...

    Yeah, that's... commitment. It's a little cringy, but I was okay with it until I started seeing hands in the backgrounds. I'd say I'm more fond of the Robot Chicken-like stop motion stuff that's been put out there. Props to them for what appears to be quite a herculean father/son(?) effort.

    Seems pretty definitive... I don't see them spending a Haslab on the Firebat. That's too easy to exclusive retail. So Rattler it is.

    I went looking as well, thinking there was no way I was the first to have heard of this. Seems like it was too recent to have been disintegrated in one of the site crashes. 🤷‍♂️ I agree it's a cool way to fulfill Carson's childhood dream (apparently along with that of a number of other fans)...

    Whoa. I just stumbled across 3DJoes' next endeavor: Maybe this is old news, but it's the first I'm finding it. Ambitious!!!

    Oh, so the volumes didn’t contain all the background info? That’s good to know. I guess I’ll abandon my search for those and just try to get ahold of a pulpit so I can comfortably read the big boy then! I’ll have to see what we’ve got stored around at church. 😆

    I hope they can set aside the exhaustion of all that work and still take pride in such a beautiful achievement! Not sure what happened on the shipping on mine, I had fully expected to pay somewhere in the neighborhood of $35 (I remember seeing something about that on the website when I first...

    So maybe BBTS just bought out the remaining at a lower rate to resell? Hopefully it works(ed) out well for both parties, plus the consumer!

    Weird that this has just made it to BBTS as a pre-order (considering they still have like 2200 remaining), but hey, a win is a win! https://toynewsi.com/9-53563

    Yeah, I’m pretty sure I’ll also end up with that Beachhead, either from lack of discipline at WM or when I have an AMZ gift card and nothing new is up for PO. Flint will likely be the same story. Both are huge favorites from back in the day. I’ll take my favorite parts from both versions and...

    I’ll be shocked if the dates don’t move back up for the next wave, considering all the places they are showing up already. Can’t wait to get Doc and finish the OG Dreadnok trio!
