Next wave of reveals is today
>>
>>11822725
I doubt they reveal a lot. It will also be the shortest stream of the month.
>>
>>11822752
They said two preorders and some renders and name reveals.
It might be short because they won't be showing anything physically.
>>
>>11822752
>>11822759
I doubt that anyone will be impressed today.
>>
I’m guessing they’ll do the following:
Show Unboxed and in hand Dusty with Sandstorm and Avalanche Rescue worker.

Show Renders on Iceberg, Mistress Armada, Duke and Toxo-Viper for the final week.

Show silhouette of the new unrevealed character for the final week.
>>
>>11822782
apparently the final figure in the wave will be revealed today, unless industry boomers on hisstank were hyping it up last night for no reason
it's new, it's a villain, it might be a chick
>>
We still have one more retro wave figure to be revealed too

As cool as these figures are, I think I'll hold off pre-ordering them. Hopefully like previous higher priced sets, they'll sit on shelves and maybe even see a discount at some point. Desert Scorpion was a way cooler set and that thing was the only figure on the shevles at my local targets for this entire year.

These are day one Pre-Orders though. Though I do wish Iceburg's gun was more like a laser LMG like his original figure since Snowjob already holds that arctic sharpshooter position.

Are you guys new to collecting? Walmart is notorious as the worst place on earth for preorders. Their website is also totally fucked up. The inventory management system had me drive 35 miles for something and then let me know on the way home its in stock at about 5 closer locations.

>>11823615
I've never had any issues with orders, my only problem is shit sells out and they seem to have no interest in restocking
>>
>>11823615
I barely ever do preorders if i can help it. I only preorder stuff when its absolutely necessary and while walmart has been shitty before ive never had an experience this bad before.
>>
Honestly what should i do? Walmart has been making me go in circles trying to find help about the dire night creeper with all phone numbers and in store employees going "durr i dunno what to do?". How do i get a concrete answer on whats going on and who do i talk to to get results?

Walmart says the dire night creeper was lost now. Great

I abandoned buying Joe's from them after the Ghost Viper headache. Collecting is supposed to be depressurizing and enjoyable. Walmart exclusives kill the enjoyment. There's nothing Hasbro can give them that's worth the bullshit.

I wish this were more the reality for me. Finding a lot of it stressful, have to record the unboxings, worried about the ambient temperature being too hot for my figures, worrying about space etc. I find myself fretting so much about the health of my collection I think I'm too much of a bitch for toy collecting.

If they're all from the same distribution hub you might be able to get someone to open a theft investigation there. I'm assuming some employee just walked off with a box of them to resell.

It’s pretty clear to me that the current team is extremely unfamiliar with firearms. If I was the team lead I would at least take everyone to a high-end shooting range that has exotic guns for rent. One day at the range and they would understand guns better than they currently do
>>
Oh yeah I almost forgot; the amount of rifles with no stock. It’s basically impossible to shoot a rifle effectively with no stock. They sort of rectified this with Crazyleg’s smg that finally has a folding stock. Collapsible stocks would be really easy for them to do as well.
>>
>>11823907
I know next to nothing about guns but if i worked for the gi joe team at hasbro i would make a point to get in contact with people who know about guns to make the toys more accurate
>>
>>11823895
That seems to be a plate carrier not an LBV, but yeah, you're not wrong. The Spec Ops soldier from the legacy line uses this carrier, but he at least has a magazine fed rifle.

>>11823907
It's really annoying. My other hobby is collecting and shooting guns and holy shit, the inaccuracies a lot of these toy companies pull just drives me nuts.

>>11823907
it's as if GI Joe were some kinda fantasy IP of made up military and scifi shit that holds no bearing in reality. Next thet'll be making Laser canons and Hover chariots. God GI Joe sucks ass now.

It seems to me like 10% of Walmarts got them, and the ones that did got a shitload of them. I personally feel like it was intentional. They priced it well above the normal price of a fat-packed Joe at the time ($60 instead of $40), they knew they had a cool figure people would want but there's the price. I remember someone posting a pic of one in-store at $60 next to a Desert Scorpion normally-priced at $40.

I think they created false scarcity to work the buyers into such a frenzy that we'd forget the price. And it worked.
>>
>>11823919
If these fuckers show up at DDs like the MOTU Walmart only exclusive. I'm gonna be a happy little boy. Never saw them at the two WM that had the collector Island setup. Saw everything else stocked. There wasn't even a label for it.
>>
>>11823924
They sold out fast, and that damned us because the frenzied fans who gladly overpaid gave Hasbro the confidence it was seeking to justify bidding up the prices. So we started this year with everything except the basic figures costing $10 more than they did last year.

Prices will continue to rise as long as you paypiggies keep buying

>>11823940
Hello my fellow /k/ommando. Yeah, as much as I love the line for scratching that military itch for me, it is really obnoxious how they can't get any guns even remotely close to correct. They can't even be bothered to watch a simple YouTube video. It's not like this issue is exclusive to Hasbro, most other companies can't do it. Mezco was one that was pretty good since they had working slides and actions and such, and maybe Valaverse, but I'm struggling to think of any other company outside of specialty stuff like Little Armory that actually gets firearms right.
>>
>>11823908
>Collapsible stocks would be really easy for them to do as well.
That's another peeve of mine. Non-extended stocks. In Hasbro's defense, they aren't the only one guilty of it. Damn 3rd party had to give us an Uzi with the stock extended.
>>
>>11823940
>>11823952
Not a /k/ guy but ive heard a theory that companies like hasbro make the guns purposefully weird to avoid paying license fees to IRL gun companies

NTA but I could believe that. Though I'm not massively familiar with guns (I like them and think they're cool, but I'm by no means an expert) and honestly most of the "errors" with the Classified guns go over my head.
That said I think you could be onto something- they clearly know enough about guns to make some fairly deep cuts (this one is IIRC based on a Kriss Vector) so I wouldn't be surprised if the mistakes are to keep gun companies off their backs.
If you think Joe guns are bad though just wait until you see what Transfags have to put up with for jet modes. Blitzwing from the Bumblebee movie turned into a Phantom but his toy didn't even look like a stylized one.
>>
waiting a couple of days was the right call. The dire creeper is back in stock, so I went back to my stalled order, clicked issues with my delivery and it gave me the choice to have another one shipped free of charge.
>>
>>11823936
Prices are going to continue to ride regardless if people keep paying for things or not. Literally everything is skyrocketing in price. It's not excluive to toys. Why are some of you so fucking ignorant of the rest of the world?

Not him, but they're not even trying to bring prices down. They cut corners to lower costs like re-using body parts and accessories, but they don't pass that lower price onto customers. Instead they keep prices edging up. And it's getting to the point to where they're pricing customers out of the market.

Prices come down quickly when the money's not there. They don't go in the opposite direction. That defies economic logic. Prices get bid up through the increase in able-demand (meaning demand that people have the cash to spend on). Throw in Hasbro increasing the number of Classified releases for the past 3 years. They're raising prices just because they can.
>>
>>11824106
No shit. No one in any industry is trying to bring prices down. That's why I said that prices are going to keep gong up regardless if people keep paying the price. It's genuinely kind of concerning how so many of you think this is isolated to toys.

Look at the stance and proportions on the old one. Everything about it is better. Everything is wrong with the new one. Looks like they designed it with no reference in mind whatsoever, like based off a distant memory of what a buggy looks like. At least you took the ridiculous top cage / seat off. It looks a bit better like that. For some reason most people don’t take it off.
