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

    DD just sent out their latest coupon "GRILL" for 15% off in-stock stuff. They have Monkeywrench, so that's another few figures that AMZ and HP have lost out on. Can't beat getting new stuff at a discount.

    Anybody still collecting SW on here?

    As much as I thought the Joe SnowCat haslab was sub-par, the SW brand team seems to find new ways to plumb the depths of failure. That oversized gunship haslab (for the low low price of *only* $450 plus tax) is not even halfway to funding with 10 days to go. I think it's fair to say that it's...

    I'm surprised you went for the camo Range Viper. He's sufficiently creepy, but he hits zero nostalgia buttons. I like the first range viper ok, but the new one will have get hella cheap for me to notice. It's like we've switched places! :ROFLMAO:

    I finally stumbled upon the big WM display when I was at a WM far away today. No CBs, but I did get the ugly night force Beachhead/Quick-Kick duo (I have a soft spot for BH's ugly deco). My preorder still sitting unfilled as I find them in store... :cautious: And I also grabbed a Legacy...

    I got a lone retro Televiper and retro CoverGirl from BBTS today. They put some other stuff on top of them in the box, so they were totally crushed, but I've got others on order from Amazon, so today's will clearly be openers. I don't understand either how some reviewers are so far ahead, but...

    Amazon's still showing BACC as 9/15 and MW as 10/2. They'll probably both come early, but I've waited this long, so a few more weeks won't kill me. Only reason I'd switch is if DD got them in stock and offered a coupon code at the same time. Also, got my Rattler on Monday, still haven't...

    Instagram Clearly Cobra Commander was reading all of our posts during the SnowCat campaign. "You funded the Joe team's idiotic half-track... Now everybody who backed the haslab gets the vehicle, not to mention all that camping nonsense... ...I hate cold. Ugh. Wish they'd just gotten a...

    BACC is just Fred to me... #notmycoco. He'll never replace the retro version or my custom hooded one. He's just Fred VII trying to pull off a coup. I love that Hama didn't play the *new deco* game just straight-up. He had to zag, which I rather enjoy. This version isn't nearly as angular as...

    Apparently so. Most of them weren't around in '87, I suspect. Hard to imagine 40+ yo scalpers, but maybe? How sad would it be to reach middle age and working hard to make a $12 vig on a toy?

    Got Crystal Ball in the mail today, and he's... Crystal Ball. I was never a huge fan, but as the all-time pegwarming champ, he looks the part. The portrait looks like Vincent Price in Kiss makeup. And of course, he has tattoos... weird arcane symbol tattoos. But he's appropriately creepy...

    Yeah, I'm glad to get Flint and the tooled winter-coat body. Getting all three figures off the secondary market would cost as much as the whole package, so I'm *glad* I caved... although I'm still not proud of myself. ;)

    Supposedly Emily said on the livestream that she had not added in the numbers this week for the Non-Pulse areas of the world, so that will add *some* to the tally tonight, but I'm still thinking Flint is a longshot. Yeah, if I weren't backing it, I too would be hoping it didn't unlock...

    I'm not proud of myself, but FOMO got me and I backed the stupid SnowCat again. So weak. I'm still mostly interested in the figures, definitely hoping that it has a miracle surge and unlocks Flint. But if the vehicle is a dud, I can still sell it and have far less in the figures than if I...

    Yeah, they're going to fill most of the '82-'86 rosters in the next 12-18 months. After that, I'm sure there will be a healthy mix of late-stage ARAH, ME, new stuff, sunbow decos and redo's of older sculpts that look dated. And like anyone with a plastic crack addiction, I'll be onboard for a...
