I wish Hasbro would go back to doing it that way like with Regal CC. for exclusives, set a pre order date and let people order as many as they want and make that amount.

It totally looks like Patrick Swayze! Forget Cobra Island. It's "Roadhouse" Flint...lol.

Somewhat, and it's possible they did, but I've got a sneaking hunch they also based him on Hasbro designer Lenny Panzica too (and I effing hate that). The brow, the nose, and the eyebrows in particular, but the part that sealed the hunch is how he kept weirdly going on about how handsome the figure's face is when they unveiled it (when it clearly isn't, lol).

Whatever the case, I really hate this face sculpt and replacing it is one of my prime missions with this line, lol. BTW...anyone know of any good headswap ideas?

I saw a suggestion that the newest Bucky head with Beachhead's beret and an eyepatch would make a good Lt Falcon, so he might do for Flint as well. Not sure how compatible the neck/pegs are on those, though.

If you were waiting for an EB Joe pre-order to arrive in-store, you may want to double-check with your location. My store never called me for my LJ PO, but I went today and there were a bunch on the shelf.
