Without any of her talent. ;)



Apparently Hasbro CONFIRMED that variant Blow Job and Cock Master WERE produced, but have NO idea what the fuck happened to them.

Some fat guy with a pony tail and a taco meat stained shirt is waiting to strike on eBay.

"Soon, I will own all of the collector's money."

If these were sitting in some Chinese warehouse I have to believe at least some of them would have graced eBay by now.

Not that I care, they were shitty repaints of shitty characters taking up valuble fucking slots in PoC.

I'm really attempted to get my friend over there to investigate it but I'm sure it will just cause him to go into hiding from the government.

The Micro Force figures suck as expected, but the movie-accurate Cobra Trooper is the dog's balls!

Holy crap, those cancelled figures...

Also, I want the PP Croc Master. ;) I'm a fan without much taste.

That is a nice trooper. Looks like it should be used for the opening scene in Red Dawn.

All hail the supremacy of the ST buck!

Boy, the "ultimate" Snake Eyes sure is a joke.

I hate to say it, but ultimate Duke looks nice. Hasbro finally realized that it's better to offer Duke with a helmet that covers his whole head

I like his helmet, otherwise it's a repainted G.I. Joe: Halo Trooper with a mostly "meh" compliment of weapons.

I actually kinda like that "ultimate" Duke and he comes with the only thing I liked about Data Viper--- the drone.

Sounds like no wave 2 on the DG Joes any time soon, as wave 1 is a bitch to find. Big H is trying to get more stores to take them so they'll be easier to get.

I'm officially entertaining offers for my two Cobra Officers.

Looking for a Pegasus Bee Gee Z, but I may be interested in a Bbi UH-60. ;)

That Eel with Night Landing looks amazing. Looks like an updated Torpedo for my collection! The Night Landing looks good too.

And I think that "Ultimate" SE looks great, but was he necessary? Timber needs some damned paint apps.

What is with the "Ultimate" Firefly? I figured when they said that they were referring to the gray one that comes in the 3-pack. That one's as Ultimate as they ever need to make.

And that Duke, while yet another damned Duke, is a good troop-builder, and the head sculpt actually looks really good, and I hate Chafing Taintum. The drone looks cool, too.

Not a lot of win, but some gems in there.

At least Hasbro showed something. I half expected them to just throw down a smoke pellet and disappear.

Yeah he'll be a troop builder for me.

Also, great news on the DG Joes. Hasbro trying to figure out how to increase availability...won't release Wave 2 until they figure out how to make the first wave more available.

Awesome.

I blame the "Ultimate" on us collectors who dubbed PoC SE and Renegades SS as Ultimates...

yea I saw those on GJ's. Are they variants or the actual wave 2?

Probably variants I'm the one that said Wave 2...

Also, see the pic of Flint with a green parachute - great figure, decent head sculpt. Man I fucking loved playing with the parachutes when I was a kid. I also had a couple of Fisher-Price chutes I used as well. I'll have to stock up on a few of these so my kids and I can throw them out the second floor window.

That Duke looks decent. Army Builder at best with a nice selection of weapons. Then throw in that EEL with some more kickass weapons, a pretty sweet Night Viper, then Ill have to purchase a 3 pack for only one figure.

I guess my money has already been spent.
