I would be so into that as I really liked the modern 3 3/4" figures.

The question is how expensive the membership/subscription would be. Obviously the demand would be more limited than for that of the 6" line or even the classic O-ring style figures.

Also what would be the point?

It's not like 25th/ME stuff is difficult to find currently, and a lot of it isn't expensive. Or at least no more expensive than what they would probably charge for a new 4' figure.

Add to that the fairly lackluster response to the recent "retro" Walmart exclusives, plus them ending up on clearance both at Walmart and other places, and it doesn't seem like a good idea. Maybe that is why it is just a rumour?

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

Hard to say how well that would go over. A Joe-Of-The-Month Club?. Might go over well, if the price is ok. A Monthly Loot-box situation where each box has a guaranteed figure?. Maybe a little better since you get other junk in those, but they can be pricey. A tier-based subscription service? good luck with that

We?re getting hosed on subscriptions for everything now. People won?t accept the same for toys

Canadians are starting to get shipping notices for the haslab hiss. I haven’t gotten a single email but it’s exciting to think we have them for under the tree.

Anyone have an eta?

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

Anyone got the 20$ Buzzer from amazon yet? Suppose to have it today but didn't get any confirmation that it was shipped.

*UPDATE* just got a message from amazon telling me the new date is december 21.

I had to cancel my $18 Amazon one. If it shipped out as per the Dec 1st date, then I can refund the Gamestop one, but with the delays, I won't be able to refund it.
