    Oh, I agree that's his iconic look, but once they released a proper battle ready version in the 25th, there was no going back for me :D. Agreed as well that Torpedo is a great figure, though he could definitely use a proper land version too, though I don't believe it has ever happened before...

    I was pleasantly surprised to see some significant Joe CS on the shelves at WM last evening. 2x RnR and 1x Shipwreck priced at $22, 4x Scrap Iron and 4x latest SE priced at $45, along with the usual peg warming Gung Hos, Baroness and LJs priced at $25. Hasbro's normal supply chain finally...

    I got a few moments of private time to do a little modernizing. I'm pretty satisfied with the results. Thank you, nacho! I know nacho is not a fan of Duke much at all, but I like him a lot better with the helmet and plate carrier than just the sash. I gave him his original glammed up rifle...

    Nice! I recently got the notice of the Eel delivery date changing to 8/10-14 for us filthy non-Primers. :LOL:

    A lot of what we already know, but a few new name drops and some info on the return of Retro packaging:

    So I don’t hate the Tripwire, but I simply don’t have a place for him. He’s under-armed and serves a function that seemed to be going obsolete, at least until the revival of cluster munitions in Ukraine. I never cared for him back in the day, and now I’m afraid he’ll just remind me of some of...

    Hawk, Shockwave (will need to give him a better gun), Helix (minus the ninja crap), Mutt + JY (also will need a better weapon I think) and the Dreadnoks are definitely yeses. As long as the price isn’t prohibitive, the Vamp will be my first Joe CS vehicle. Tripwire, Cobra MMS, Crimson set, PP...

    I’d say if you like that Chuckles you did it right! He was never a favorite of mine, so I won’t miss him as an exclusive.

    Lol, that sounds exciting! I ended up stopping with the website I had been using when it stopped displaying the comics. I can't remember what number it was off hand though. You da man!

    Huh, that's wild. I don't think I'd ever heard of them before now. Sounds like a pretty cool concept, and a good way to add a more potent threat than the run-of-the-mill Cobra minions. The artwork in the pic is interesting as well. Is that watercolor?

    I don't know/remember Plague, so I don't have any attraction to these. I also don't really get the brain helmet look. It just seems counterintuitive for me, very exposed looking.

    Thanks, Brother! I'm in your debt. If, by some strange twist of fate, there ever is something I might have that you don't but need, hit me up. It always makes me happy when collectibles (toys) get displayed rather than end up sitting in storage. I think the Toy Story movies have left their...

    Those look great! Huge improvement with CG. Just don’t let Clutch spend too much time around the ladies. He has a history of making inappropriate comments. As for the gear, I’m interested in whatever you don’t have any use for - helmets, PCs and modern/future Joe CS weapons. I doubt I have...

    I got my RnR today and he looks pretty darn good! I'm tempted to leave him as is, but I also think he'll look that much better with an armor kit. He's got plenty of extra bullet belt to splice on the back to get them around it. Have you gotten a chance to see what leftover gear you have that you...

    Wow, I guess I should have been a little more empathetic. I don't recall ever having had a real issue with WM, besides their really poor search function on the website and weird stocking habits. I cancelled on them for the retro CG and SE, but the others I ordered arrived with only minor damage...

    You probably already know this, but more Super7s announced: G.I. Joe ULTIMATES! Wave 5 - Roadblock, Cover Girl, Major Bludd & Cobra Crimson Guard From Super7 Have you gotten any of those yet? If so, how do they look in person vs. the pics/renders?

    Sounds like miserable people just being miserable to me. WM should be the place most would have to go to get a WM exclusive figure. You'd think they'd be happy that the figs are still available hours later. Plus, they aren't the particularly mashable carded figs WM seemed to want to bag vs box...
