Whaaaa? Cobra EEL pre-order today? That's a definitely yes, he was a huge favorite as a kid as my Cobra version of a SEAL. Tunnel Rat is apparently dropping today too. Now I'm gonna have to get off the fence and pre-order a Torpedo as well. Not sure why Amazon has not had him available. I'm...

So much for mildly horrifying... Some of the lore for those toy lines is downright gruesome. But then again, this was in the wake of the Six Million Dollar Man... I suppose the attempted tying of the universes together was more of a ploy to try to draw fans from one to the other(s). Buy more of...

Ah, that's a good point. I had forgotten that they are a little more ambitious for the DF. I'm also impatient since the next two unlocks will make or break my interest in supporting it.

Man, kinda seems like the Dragonfly doesn't have the same enthusiasm we saw with the HISS Tank. We're a week+ in and haven't covered the gap to unlock a pretty sweet Ripcord and reveal the second unlock. Word has to be out by now. I'm a little surprised and disappointed as I think, in general...

Campy, clever and, at times, mildly horrifying. Yo Joe!

I wonder if a Hawk might also be a possibility. His name has been thrown around as "coming soon," but we've never actually seen any renders or anything. Makes me wonder if they'll try to work a vintage/v.2 set up here where he's blonde (or comes with both hair colors) but has the jacket or...

I really think they need to release new mold figures (like they did for the HISS) to justify the cost, at least for me. Three new figs at $25 each and $200 for the choppa. Ripcord is a win. If anything, each new reveal should be a step up in value, not a repaint. That said, they did drop the...

But but but... How could they not?

Was Airborne ever in any subgroups? I can’t imagine them not including him somehow.

I was looking at Grunt again and thinking about your opinion on whether combat greenshirts should be a thing or not. I think you are generally correct, and that the no-names should mostly be left to the support and administrative jobs. However, I do see a potential for greenshirts in combat...

One of these days when we're feeling less grumpy/lazy we'll get these two guys together and figure out what needs upgrading - probably after RnR drops. He's the next one I see that could really benefit from a little body armor. Thanks in advance!

Grumble, grumble... 😂🤣😂 We’re like a couple grumpy old men griping about what we like or don’t about the world. If you ever decide you want to sell any of that modern kit, I know a guy... 😆

Catching up on some of the other new reveals that I missed yesterday: Grunt looks pretty awesome! He's just the kind of modernized classic I'm hoping for. I think I'm going to have to get him a more modern/near future looking carbine through. Otherwise, awesome! I think I'll also need to get an...

That, the 21st Super Cobra (both hanging in my office at home) and the various Black Hawks were all nicely detailed for the price. Ah, the good old days...

I'm familiar with NOTAR, and have seen the covered version (I believe they had a police Little Bird with one in Speed for reference), but what is required, but not visible from the pics, is some kind of significant opening on the outlet side of the unit to allow the air being pushed to exit...

Ah... I obviously did not catch the LS, just stills. Well then, as usual, they need to inform their photographers that they need to "REMOVE BEFORE FLIGHT" that cover, particularly for the shots of it firing off ordnance. That info in hand, and since the system seems like it might actually be...

Unfortunately, I’ve got no interest due to the pretty obvious airworthiness issue (removal of the original tail turbine that countered the rotor torque), but it looks pretty cool if you can ignore that. Wild Bill and Ripcord look great too!

Cool! I don’t have a compelling need for any of those and am becoming even more selective with my pre-orders of late. I recently canceled my Wally Retro CG and SE, so now only have RnR and Scrap Iron on pre-order. I’m still trying to decide if it’s worth picking up SJ and Torpedo without knowing...

Why? https://toynewsi.com/312-47611 It's a complete and total copy/size reduction of the JoeClass version (right down to the gun and high tech wiz bang thing on the shoulder) for the same price? I have to wonder who they see as their target market for these.

I don’t disagree. Minus perhaps the Wolverine, I’d consider every one of those ahead of the SC.
