It would be awesome if they arrived on time or even earlier, but honestly I don?t think I?ve had GameStop hit a preorder arrival date at any point in the last year. Every single figure I?ve ordered from them, be it a Joe, a Ranger, a TF, or a Star Wars figure has gotten delayed by an average of around two months. I feel like the closest they came was the Transformers wave with Dinobot and Inferno in it and even that I think was around two weeks later than originally estimated. Still waiting on Power Rangers that we?re originally set to be released in October?

That pic has floated for over a month and figure it’s a fan custom or whatever.

He should have a helmet and they would also have showcased the vehicle if this was a real photo.

I could be wrong but my skepty sense is tingling.

It's a Photoshop of the wave 1 Duke.

It is the exact promo photo for wave 1 Duke, but in TF colours

I also wish it was a new vehicle with Duke, but I'm expecting a repainted RAM as well

With Tiger Force, the joes would get Cobra vehicles and repaint them. So I expect TF Duke to come with a repainted COIL bike.

Hard to say if they'll do that, though. Even in the classic line, more than half the vehicles were re-painted GI Joe Vehicles (Tiger Fish, Tiger Fly, Tiger Cat and Tiger Sting were all re-issues of Joe vehicles - though, I guess the Tiger Sting was supposed to be more Stinger than Vamp II)

For anyone who hasn't seen them yet, here are official pics of the upcoming classic Storm Shadow figure.

I know this is a longshot. I know this. But! If anyone comes across any Cobra Island Vipers, Troopers, Major Blood or Firefly...and can pick them up and ship them...PM me, please!

Hard to resist the Action Force hype train with all these Roadblock restocks.

Valaverse Slaughter is bittersweet. The slender arms and bald head give him a withered old-man look, but it kinda makes the figure more interesting/meta. An old toy, for old fans. Hopefully the Classified version gets the Storm Shadow treatment though.

I saw Major Bludd only, once. I bought him then. Have never seen Viper, Firefly or Cobra Trooper at retail still. Maybe there's better luck outside the GTA?

Barring a restock they are gone.


I hope there is a magical container somewhere out on the ocean with more stock because I am still missing the Trooper.


However I don't know, but the recent restock of Beach Head and Roadblock lets me have a glimmer of hope still.
