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

    Yeah, the aging thing was the explanation I used as a kid to rationalize the change, but it still buged me. This is Hawk in my head (Duke is a poser who can take a flying leap). And based on that last page, I wouldn't even mind a black coat instead of brown.

    I'd prefer an OG Hawk, or at least give the leather jacket version blonde hair like the OG figure and the comics. The brown hair was just some hasbro production stooge's attempt to distinguish him from Duke, as if we were all too dumb to know the difference. I found the notion insulting and...

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

    The officer is the mystery fig in the SS/Spirit wave. BBTS listed a set of three for that wave last week and simply didn't name the third until yesterday. The Alley Viper and BAT are the two without actual release schedules yet and will likely fill in a gap somewhere. In the presentation...

    I agree. I have one of those with the boots and gloves primered up, ready to paint, then the official dropped... whatcha gonna do? I have the fork knife SE pre-ordered, but I have doubts I'll care about other game figs. With my luck they'll have heads that are more classic and I'll have to get...

    I love the cloth-style face mask, the AK, the new gear. Can't really imagine it coming out much better. The more these figures abandon the look of that video game, the more awesome they become.

    GI Joe - SkyStriker Haslab

    As I mentioned in the Classified thread, I backed the Skystriker, even though I have the modern/PoC/30th one and the SDCC/Jetfire version. I love the black tailfin option, the cloth parachutes, the ball-articulated stand, the flame/smoke effects for the engines and missiles, etc. And the wings...

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

    I hated the Spirit/SS "showdowns" in the toon, as I was already steeped in the comic universe where SE and SS were frenemies with a shared past. Shoehorning the indian as a foil for the ninja seemed both weird and a no-contest. Even Quick-Kick fighting Storm Shadow seemed like a horrible...

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

    Yeah, I was chatting with eddie this weekend, and my response about the skystriker was that I want one just to display with all the fire/smoke bits, and I like the idea of having a stand and not trying to suspend it from the ceiling. Objectively it's nowhere near worth the asking price, but I'm...

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

    I know it's an homage to the Club figure of 2016 since there was no vintage TF Outback, but for the life of me, I don't know why Outback is white-headed now. Does the jungle cause so much stress that you grey faster than normal? The guy is a ginger fer-cryin-out-loud. I'm going to pose this...

    Had no problem ordering Outback from Target, skipped the Python figures. BBTS also has Spirit and Storm Shadow in a set with a 3rd, yet unnamed, figure. I backed the Skystriker, even though I have the modern/PoC/50th one and the SDCC/Jetfire version. I love the black tailfin option, the cloth...
