Wish it was the classic look from the cartoon, but overall I still like it. Lots of unique tooling on the figures! I hope this sells!

Agreed. Although I'm worried about the price point up here. It may make for a hard sell to anyone outside of diehard fans.

Hopefully this sells and we can get some classic ARAH looks down the line.

I've been waiting a long time for these type of Joe's. I also hope they go cartoon and you know they will. Also hope we get some comic characters like the first ever lady snake eyes figure etc...
Also super excited for the Ghostbusters

Overall I am disappointed however. Why not just do the classic looks.

I was hoping for those as well. My guess is they know everyone wants those so this is their way of moving more products. If the classics came first no one would likely buy these. It sucks these games they play. Thankfully snake eyes always looks the same and the scarlett and roadblock don't look to far off. But really would perfer a classic scarlett

I feel like I have to paint them. The m60 that came with Punisher though will be ok for Roadblock to use.

I'm a Marvel/Star Wars guy myself but I must admit, I am tempted to pick some of these up as they look great to act as goons/soldiers/etc. for photos/displays with Legends.

I’m gonna need another shelf lol

Is that 29.99 USD? The link is not working on my phone. If that’s the case I wouldn’t be surprised legends and power rangers go up :/

My link was to a picture of the ML Punisher, I don’t think anyone has yet shared a link to preorder

A shot of Duke and some closeups of Scarlett and RB:

Did not realize they had freckles on Scarlett.

EB is taking preorders for the gi joe figures. $5 deposit required per figure. Sold as a whole so I ordered 5 hoping to get the set. I know only 3 have been announced so far.

They did not have the snake eyes exclusive which I was hoping for.

BBTS currently has the first wave up for pre-order and there are supposed to be 5 different figures in that wave.
The first 3 are already known but the other 2's identities are still to come.

They are rumoured as snake eyes retail release and Destro

A silent SE video review on YouTube

https://youtu.be/we7N9J9CJ4I

Edit: guy is from Thailand and I think the review is silent as a kind of in joke/homage. The figure is so articulated that at 8:51 it almost achieves what fortunately is anatomically Impossible otherwise our species would go extinct.

This marvel legends collector does very good reviews and makes custom snake eyes using weapons from marauder as well as custom casting stuff. He has a review of the new snake eyes from Hasbro.

JustJHernandez has some of the best figure videos on YouTube since he's all about the fun!! He doesn't even consider himself a reviewer. This video really shows what this new Snake eyes can do and he compares it to his own custom.
So I agree check out his video.

If these figures are going to be O-ring, I don't think I'll be getting them. I prefer modern super-articulation constructed figures way more.

Just put PoC-style figures (like Cover Girl damn it) into retro cards and that's fine, but no interest in true vintage figures personally.

This.

They cancelled my Black Series Plo Koon preorder from months ago saying there was no stock 2 days ago...only to reopen preorders again today :doh:

I don't think it's an Amazon issue overall, just Amazon.ca maybe ? I've never heard of anyone getting burned on preorders with Amazon.co.jp for example on MP Transformers.

Preordered.

Amazon.ca will be canceling my preorder in 3....2....1....:argh:

Wintermute 04-01-2020 09:34 PM

Re: G.I. Joe Classified Series 6 inch discussion
 
lol yeah let's hope not. Although Amazon's habit so far has been to cancel the preorder for the figure, then to have it pop up again a few days later (like in the case of Plo Koon).

It makes sense, Snake Eyes will be high in demand.

I cancelled my Hasbro pulse order, would have been $85 Canadian for just him. This retail release looks satisfactory.

Yep, I'll wait for retail for Snake Eyes. I don't need that fancy boxing nor do I need the weapon stand. Anyone have a date on these? They were on amazon.ca for while about a month ago, but no longer.

I want Snake Eyes, Destro and maybe Scarlett.

From the case asortment, looks like Destro might be the hard to find one.

Destro was up on amazon for quite a while to order, I’m not seeing him anymore though.

For me, thats means he was only available on Mars :p

If I can’t find them in stores or a convention post pandemic I won’t buy them at all.
