[G.I.*EDDIE]

nice, but i'm all set

 

[K-Tiger]

Yeah saw this on HT before there was any confirmation so I passed on posting it up.


Renegades is all rehashes, the Retaliation one is much the same except for maybe the Rockblock figure being better than the retail releases.

 

[Monkeywrench]

If the RoadRock is good, I might get it. I like the Black CC

 

[K-Tiger]

Too much RoC in the design. I like his web gear, though. Teamed up with a proper harness it'll pass for a M16 20rd mag bandolier.

I'll wait until that turd is pulling an Arctic Destro this Christmas season.

Amazon usually has awesome discount sales from time to time, and usually free shipping and no tax, so if these end up being good custom bases it could be a good deal.

 

[fogger1138]

Yeah, no excitement until we actually see pics of the figures.

 

[MAJOR BLOOD]

Looks like they left a spot for the ROSS sticker.

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

haha ^

 

[unclassified]

fuck ross.


i just want the ninja gear, give a fuck about those figures. i will get the rock from retail.

Renegades set was a missed opportunity to do Renegades Road Block, Baroness, etc. Typical Hasbro.

 

[unclassified]

no doubt..

But they listened to our cries for the Stormshadow no one could find!

 

[lancelot]

yeah, the same action figure that is being reused for %50 of the Retaliation line and even the dollar store ones. Hallelujah!

 

[K-Tiger]

Woot! Hasbro is our-a savior-a!

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

Get to HT with nut-fluffing nonsense

 

[Goldbug]

Looks like they left a spot for the ROSS sticker.

Of course! I expect the Retaliation set to be sitting next the the MARS trooper sets.

 

[Monkeywrench]

They are in stock

$40 box of turd?

I was hoping for a $30 price point. I guess it being an "exclusive", the FC's and stands that you won't get with the single cards and the exclusive Black CC brings it up in price

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

What?!...now they made CC black?...I thought they learned their lesson with Ripcord

He's only Black between the legs

Costume, Eduardo, costume.

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

I'm just going to assume you knew I was joking...

I should've thrown in a "that's really gonna pi$$ Cloud off"

 

[K-Tiger]

He's working on a 1:18 Roots plantation dio with a white repaint of Cobra Commander.

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

I'd love to see a white pointy hat CC, lol...or that new black one with removable hood and underneath is Hitler...or Dr. Evil

 

[K-Tiger]

I think Slayer did a kind-of-looks-like Hitler head sculpt, too......

I want a custom Hitler!

 

[unclassified]

that would be sick to have a hitler in the cobra ranks, right cloud?

I would use him with Red Skull!

 

[unclassified]

honestly, i think i would have him play a part of a mindbender project, like serpentor.

That would be pretty badass too!

Cloud, I need you to do a Hitler Commission for me

 

[unclassified]

I thought about painting up a few of the hoodies and using that tree with a whip from the Indy line in a diorama but figured it may not go too well. It is a tad insensitive.

Just make it an Officer Exclusive dio...

I would enjoy the art

That's the one. It's not a good likeness (for some reason figure Hitlers regardless of scale are that way). Looks like Roger Lloyd-Pack, really.

 

[Cloud Strife]

Well, I just cancelled my order with Amazon for the Renegades box set after seeing the official images. I don't care for the ball hip joints and they are to anime-ish for my taste where G.I. Joe figures are concerned.
