It's an amazing thing to behold.
Even better than Cardboard Deathstar.

I approve of the $10 pricepoint for 6-inch figures and the other toys having actual action features! Looks like some effort has gone into making an affordable and fun toy-line for children and casual collectors. I approve. The toys look decent. I just hope it is given decent distribution and not hidden behind 'blink and you miss it' Exclusives paywalls. I quickly gave up on Classified as collecting the line was such a pain the hoop.

I've been clearing out my Joes collection the past couple of years and am down to the last handful. If anyone is interested in any of the remaining vehicles I have then let me know - there's Destro's Despoiler (with Destro) a complete Skystorm, the Cobra Invader, the Starfighter, the Pulverizer and the Arctic Blast.
Just in case anyone is interested!

That looks interesting, but £105?!

It's why I didn't back the kickstarter - the explanations of the costs from some of the parties rang very hollow.

Have Super 7 even bothered to get wave 1 out? Useless shower.

G.I. Joe Classified B.A.T. has been acquired. It really takes me back to all those TFUK backup strips, and it's an amazing toy. Multiple hand attachments - claw, gun, flamethrower - and a backpack to stow them in. And it has an alternate battle-damage head and chestplate, and opens up to show his inner workings. All round excellent.

I also have "about ten" GI Joe Classified figures. They are more expensive than MotU Origins, but very good.
The B.A.T. is the best.

No, spread out over the last year or so. Like a sane person.

Acquired G.I. Joe Classified Firefly and Major Bludd. They are superb.

Oh bum.
Martin has bought more toys.
How can a pandemic have changed me so, without me actually catching the virus?

Most of my Transformers are Autobots, and my Eldrador Creatures are neither good nor evil. But Masters of the Universe and G.I. Joe are both lines where the cooler and more interesting figures and vehicles are generally the bad guys. In the case of MotU it's because the bad guys are less like humans and more fantastic. In the case of G.I. Joe it's because the Joes represent the real-life military while the Cobra forces are made up. I have Scarlett spying on the Cobra build-up, and she will be joined by Snake-Eyes at some point. And I'll buy General Hawk if they do a Classified figure of the Joes' great leader. www.actionfigure411.com/gijoe/classified-checklist.phpWeird that 50+ figures into the line and they still haven't done the Joes' commander. Nor have they done Dr Mindbender, Serpentor or the original Dreadnoks. It's more understandable why they haven't done guys like Shipwreck or any of the pilots, given that the figures are too large to do accompanying vehicles, except for the occasional motorbike. The ground troops have benefited as a result, particularly the generic Cobra troops I've been collecting. Each figure is so detailed, I'm just blown away by the quality of this line. Martin |
