Re: G.I. Joe Classified Series 6 inch discussion

Keep in mind that due to a recent policy change, if the item isn't over $100 (I think) then you have to pay for them to ship it from another store to your local Gamestop. The employee cited that...

Re: G.I. Joe Classified Series 6 inch discussion

Yup, thank you Trudeau for CERB and saving the livelihoods of millions of Canadians during the pandemic. And I know more than a few toy collectors who used that money to buy some of the more...

Re: G.I. Joe Classified Series 6 inch discussion

I still can't get over how tan Ripper looks in your photos compared to Buzzer. Did Hasbro mess up the plastic on Ripper or something?

Not sure I'm going to get Ripper if he doesn't match up...

Re: G.I. Joe Classified Series 6 inch discussion

Same here. The items were scanning at regular price not the 50% off price, and I had to get the cashier to inform the manager, then they had to look up each Indy figure and DnD figure on the website...

Re: G.I. Joe Classified Series 6 inch discussion

TRU seems to be learning its lesson and having more sales anyway now. I got my Snow Serpent for $38+tax at their last sale, so missing out on the $36 GS pricing error no longer felt so lousy.

Also...

Re: G.I. Joe Classified Series 6 inch discussion

I stuck the wolf's head hood onto my retro card Snake-Eyes so that it'd look like he was wearing a (dead) Timber's carcass on him...

Wanted to also put the wolf's shawl onto Snake-Eyes too but...

Not everyone gets these coupons. I have a good friend who checks his email whenever I tell him I got my 25% off coupon and he gets nothing.

Check with your local store and find out why, since the...

Re: G.I. Joe Classified Series 6 inch discussion

I just went out onto my balcony and stared at my SS and sadly there's just no way mine is a dark, dark blue. It's pure black. I'm going to use him as a squad leader too, and I will likely now have to...

Re: G.I. Joe Classified Series 6 inch discussion

For anyone who hasn't yet gotten that deluxe Snow Serpent, if you are really adamant on getting the SS in his classic vintage colors, you're better off waiting for the retro card release.

Then people should just skip buying Hasbro's rubbish. I almost can't believe the number of Marvel Legends and SW "deluxes" and two-packs that I've not bothered to pre-order lately solely due to...

Re: G.I. Joe Classified Series 6 inch discussion

Well they made the Sail Barge and that thing is the size of a small fridge. If fans are willing to pay it, Hasbro would make it.

Re: G.I. Joe Classified Series 6 inch discussion

I think this happens when collectors don't buy out their inventory on Pulse, and only then does Hasbro offer it up to other retailers.

So if you'd like to fight against Hasbro constantly...

Re: G.I. Joe Classified Series 6 inch discussion

Hmmm, I definitely prefer the colors on the regular CG. The retro CG looks a bit too orange-red for my tastes. I wonder which one more closely matches the original vintage figure? My guess is the...

Re: G.I. Joe Classified Series 6 inch discussion

The good thing is that being an exclusive, it should hold its value if you ever change your mind and want to sell it... assuming that Hasbro can keep the GI Joe brand as a favorite among the nerds.

Re: G.I. Joe Classified Series 6 inch discussion

I think Hasbro pretty much knows it owns us long-time collectors body and soul at this point... the HISS Haslab was the clincher.

If we can put up with constant exurberant price hikes, windowless...

Re: G.I. Joe Classified Series 6 inch discussion

Yeah I agree. I'm 99% sure that the store can't arrange for a home delivery. And even if they could, sometimes asking the retailer to obtain and send an item that is out of the norm for their...

Re: G.I. Joe Classified Series 6 inch discussion

Let's see... $80US = $111CAN roughly
add 13% taxes = 125.43

HasbroPulse shipping is $30US = $41.50CAN
= $166.93CAN

...wow. It's funny how it seemed "reasonable" when I heard it was $80US but...

I also saw 3 Alley Vipers at the Gamestop in Vaughn Mills mall just yesterday. These were on the shelf to purchase, not pre-orders.

Re: G.I. Joe Classified Series 6 inch discussion

Blind box = "pay and pray" that you get a well-painted figure.

That said, the GI Joe paintjobs are nowhere near as bad as the Transformers ones.
