Haven't seen either in any walmart in Concorde/Thornhill/Maple area. I don't even see ANY classified figs. Have the regular releases of both figs so it's fine but just GI joe at my Walmarts is practically non existent.

Wan't sure I needed him, but I'm a sucker for new figures.

Here's my retro Storm Shadow compared to the regular one. They are Cobra Commander's body guards.

Very minimal changes between the two. I'd still get the retro if I ever find it, but I won't be too bummed out if I don't. Thanks for posting the comparison photos!

Does the retro carded Storm Shadow have skin tone issues with his elbows? Or was that just my imagination?

Is it the lighting/photo, or is Retro SS whiter than the regular release?


Here it looks like the regular release has a slight beige tint to his outfit.

Re: Gi Joe Classified Retro Zartan & Storm Shadow Released in Canada

Saw a couple retro Zartans at Wal-Mart last night but no Storm Shadows. I'm still on the fence if I want to buy these or not. Storm Shadow might be a slight upgrade on the mainline release but I'm not sure Zartan is. Not for $35.99 anyways. If they go on clearance like Destro, Lady Jaye and Baroness did I'll pick them up though.

Re: Gi Joe Classified Retro Zartan & Storm Shadow Released in Canada

Good find, nighthawk! If I see him anywhere I'm picking him up. Missed him twice on Pulse, but it's my favourite version of Storm Shadow.

I have seen a few people mix-and-matching parts between SS, and the Retro version is a brighter white.

Not sure yet if I want retro Zartan, as I already have two versions of him, and June will be a target-rich environment for buying/pre-ordering Joes.

Everybody get their Python CG's, Artic BATs and Trouble Bubbles yesterday? Arm and a leg right there!
