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

    I get not wanting to pay 40+ for it, but getting an articulated wolf with mutable heads doesn't exactly feel like getting bent over, IMO. As an expensive accessory, I like the wolf a hell of a lot more than that stupid moto that came with Baroness. I'm happy as can be. I ordered two, just to...

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

    Well this is a non-exclusive that hits all the right buttons for me. Classic ARAH SE with wolf. Screw that ninja shit, commando SE is the holy grail as far as I'm concerned. '82/'83 swivel arm SE and Stalker were the first carded Joes I ever bought (after having picked up Clutch and the VAMP...

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

    Lest you forget, we're talking about a group of soldiers that fights a snake-themed terrorist group that includes a used car salesman with a lisp, a one-eyed poet, a swamp dweller with a skin condition, a deranged shirtless dentist-turned-geneticist, and a guy in a metal mask whose lips...

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

    Yeah, I get that. But they're using the same molds for all these figures, so it's not like there is actually any less detail in the bucks of these than the prior figures, just less gaudy paint, less cumbersome rubber armor. The guns for these look far more realistic than the wave 1 Starship...

    That's funny. They look more ARAH to me and thus I like them substantially more. I mean, Breaker actually has boot laces, no kneepads or shin-guards, and no goofy gold accents. It's a festivus miracle!

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

    Whelp, no need now; Big-H just announced a new classified Roadblock in ARAH deco (amazon exclusive), along with Barbecue (another Target exclusive), a deluxe commando Snake-Eyes with articulated Timber (no word on how it'll be distributed), and a Target exclusive Breaker with RAM. Thrilled with...

    G.I. Joe 3.75" ReAction figures by Super7

    Ah, ok. I figured most people attacked that problem with photoshop rather than a horde of $18 5 PoA figures...

    G.I. Joe 3.75" ReAction figures by Super7

    I think it will match any previous Joes zero percent. I think they're going to look like simplified kenner SW figures. I suspect you're going to be disappointed.

    G.I. Joe 3.75" ReAction figures by Super7

    Just when you thought the world couldn't get any crazier, Super7 is making (presumably) 5-PoA Joes that homage comic and ARAH designs. Super7 G.I. Joe ReAction 3.75" Figures Update - What Will We See? (toynewsi.com) While I understand that 5 PoA is the ReAction line's shtick, it's incredibly...

    Joy Toys upcoming Maintenance team

    That does look pretty cool, especially the "A" group. If I was still buying 4" figures, I'd be sorely tempted.

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

    I have a second LJ ordered so I could give her a better paintjob, much like I did with scarlett. And I've got a second flint that I'm going to use to mod the vest somehow. Not sure if I'm going to just paint it different or actually cut away the non-suspender parts of the vest to make it more...

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

    Look what the mailman brought today... while they're not perfect (Bludd's backpack is just as bad as all previous backpacks in the line), these guys are getting closer and closer to classic ARAH designs. Jaye is pretty cool, but I'm not 100% sold on the face sculpt, and I'd have preferred a...

    Takara Transformers

    Yeah, we email once or twice a week. He's doing fine. I wish he'd come back around too, but I think he just took a break and got busy with other stuff.

    Well, just suffered through a 4 hour hasbro fan event, and there was no mention of Bludd, just SE Movie figs. The Scarlett movie fig looks pretty good, probably better than her main release because the head sculpt is attractive. SE is just ok, as I still struggle with him being changed into...
