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

    Some pics from the anticipated pre-orders drop tomorrow: https://toynewsi.com/278-51805 Definitely picking up Doc and Torch. I may eventually get Jinx, but don't feel the need to pre-order.

    You're missing out, brother! It's really the only think keeping Joe afloat right now. That is unless you can settle for a Transformers crossover with a tired repro of an old O-ringer once a year or so. Or maybe a couple mini-McFarlane comic figs? Unfortunately, the 25th, et al ran its course...

    18”? That’s ginormous!!! Looks awesome, and very true to the cartoon.

    With special thanks to nacho, I present "battle ready" Shipwreck: His head sits a little high because Hasbro can't manage to standardize neck balls between figures :rolleyes:. It took some exacto trimming and pliers to get the head to seat. Here's a higher angle. He looks even better in person:

    USPS tracking says it did, but I haven’t gotten back to the office since getting back on the continent. I should have it on Monday. Can’t wait!

    I gave up on Helix. The initial interest died off once the actual figure hit the shelves. But the outfit might have been a reasonable base if they went the parts reuse route, minus the rolled sleeves, buckles and corset. So no Girl Power Rangers for me. Don’t give H’bro any ideas though… 😆

    No, she ugly! 😝 Gotta have the jumpsuit look over that flowy ninja-esque garb. Like this: I‘m digging the darker red too!

    Lol, you are right that my general disinterest in ninjas is likely painting my pickiness. I always liked SE because he was commando first and ninja second. I liked SS v.2 because he at least had that compound bow so he could take out enemies from some range rather than having to dodge 20 or so...

    They are a good looking bunch for the most part! I‘ll definitely pick up Doc and Torch, as they are fixtures in all Joe media and are pretty well done. I’m not convinced about Jinx. They’ve gone the traditional ninja route minus the puffy sleeves from the 80’s version. I was hoping for a more...

    In the past couple days I've run across a couple videos where some of the creators I follow have just gotten their copy and, with my recent acute bout of nostalgia, I am starting to significantly warm up to this: Since there's currently a lull of Joe CS figures I'm expecting or have PO'ed, I...

    That looks epic! Way better than the other versions I've seen.

    Man, the classic Firefly is a pretty nice figure! Given the choice at the beginning, I’d probably have gone with this one. That said, now that I’m fairly confident dismantling figures, I’ll be taking the best of this one and my currently heavily modified CI version to make my ultimate version...

    Wow! Thanks for that! I’ll see what I can find on Mercari.

    So, while I typically avoid Tarjay for the most part, where I happen to be, the options are rather limited. So I found myself at a very large Target and this is what I ran across: Over 2 dozen trash panda Flints, a couple green Dustys and a couple classic Fireflys for $7.50 each. I grabbed a...
