Looks great Snake-Eyes. Wish I had shelving units like that. I'm forced to use the cheap plastic shelving units from Home Depot.

I mean where they separate at the biceps. The shoulder joints are fine.

Thanks guys glad you like it. I redid my office area back in the spring and I wanted to make a lot of room for Joe. Yup the top diorama part is for when I get my Hiss and Dragonfly. I made it so I can easily take out the dio part and replace it with something else down the road. I'm thinking either ruined city or a snow scene. a few pics below of the set ups I've done while waiting on the HISS.

I get the stands from amazon. links below. ca. is sold out right now. The links are for the 2C's which are perfect for classified and most marvel legends. There are also 1C's but the pegs are to small they are for four inch.

lol Marauders is my favorite Joe sub team. I hope we get more of them. Some of the best figures in the line are part of the Marauders. For now BBQ is there in anticipation

Hasbro emptying our wallets early yet again as my Helix, Shockwave and Buzzer arrived by Purolator today. Hawk and Ripper fill out the wave of 5, right?

I think that's at least 25 numbered Classified items released since September, including the Chuckles and EE sets.

They really need to dial back their product frequency and fix their release timeline in 2024.

According to Emily it will revert back to a more standard release schedule next year. This was more of a one time situation where they decided to compress almost a year's worth of production into 6 months rather than have it be pushed out a year.



So hopefully this is it and starting next year we get a bit more space between releases.

This may not be a popular opinion but I think they put out too much each year, period. It's not just timing. I'm fairly selective with Classified, and will be more and more as my wants get filled out, but the amount that has come out per year over the past couple years adds up to a staggering amount of $$$. Thankfully I skip a lot, but even with being selective I've spent way more than I expected the past couple years. Mainly because I love the product and I've been buying some characters I didn't plan to because they turned out so nice.

I guess they want to strike while the iron is hot, but I wonder what the saturation point will be. Not many people can spend at that rate long term. I know I can't.

Placed an order this past Saturday for an Alley Viper when I saw it come up for deliver again.

Was supposed to be delivered tomorrow, but yesterday got an update for a delivery today. However this morning got the delayed check back for details message.

Fingers crossed it eventually comes, but after reading whats happened to others before (cancellation is usually close after) Im not too confident.
