Nice Collection indeed! And the Iron Sheik with Cobra...That kinda works for me!
Yah, I dig it. I would love to see a William "The Fridge" Perry and Roddy Pipper Iron Grenadier Trainer release one day.
In general it would be great to see other 80s or "Joe/Cobra appropriate" celebrity get some Classified release. Maybe we finally see a Stallone release to square off against Big Boa as originally intended?
I'll also add that I am not a football fan, never watched a single game in my life. I can name maybe 6-7 players and most of them because they made the news or non-football media.... And yet I know William The Fridge Perry played for the Bears and was #72.
Hasbro knew how to brainwash and condition us very very well.
So, the seller of the Eel agreed to give me $20 back for the Crimson Alley Viper so that it would be similar to me buying it at Walmart. I kind of wanted a 2nd one so it worked out for me.
Anyways, I find the rifle works well for Shockwave. Here he is holding it.
And another shot of the handle turned around so he can hold the shield with his left hand as the cutout for the gun on the shield is designed for a right handed shooter. No idea why Hasbro designed the shield handles to be held with the right hand instead of left.
So, I've been having a recent string of horrible luck with Classified.
I ordered Eel from Ali Express and they accidentally sent me a Crimson Alley Viper.
My Shadow Tracker arrived from Walmart, but the bow string was molded improperly and is basically not connected.
I picked up a Desert Snake Eyes at Gamestop and there is a split on the back of his head (like the plastic didn't fully go into the mold.
Well, Hasbro is shipping me 2 replacement figures, so it'll be interesting to see what I'll get and I'm working on the claim with Ali Express.
Hope things get better from here for my Joe Classified purchases. Still waiting for my HISS squad to come in. DHL is definitely much slower than Fedex.
So, for the broken bow for my Shadow Tracker, I got a Buzzer. For my Snake Eyes with the crack in his head, I actually got a Snake Eyes back for that one.
I got a partial refund for the Eel which made it like I just bought the Alley Viper at Walmart, so in the end, I'm happy.
