>>11832431Peggy Hill?
New waifu dropped
I think BigBadWorkShop is going to give us the vietnam team. Pretty sure this is storm shadow.
>>11832457The color palette sucks and is too "Chameleon" but other than that it looks pretty good. It looks like they couldn't decide if they wanted to borrow from Tron or Metal Gear Solid or both. If it's not stupid-priced, I'll be a buyer. >>11832462looks like the VC bastard who burned Snake Eyes back in 'Nam
>>11832462t-shirt, arm bands, head band, I'd say its him.
>>11832462unfortunately the rest of the wave doesnt really fit. I don't think this is Stalker.
>>11832470and no one close to snake eyes, but here's a woman.
>>11832470looks like he got aids
>>11832472and a larry
>>11832476oh there's slides.
>>11832481okay its a whole new line by Larry Hama, and since the LLRP team was based of his vietnam budies, it makes sense these guys look the same.
They look like ass. Their fit & finish immediately reminds me of the old McFarlane Walking Dead figures that weren’t even good 10 years ago
>>11832472That figure looks great. It looks like a great starting point to make a better Lady Jaye than what Hasbro made. >>11832470This one looks great too.
>>11832476Oh shit, that's cool. Friend of mine has met the dude and he's apparently a really nice guy in addition to being the mastermind behind Joe. Might need him now.>>11832486>based of his vietnam budiesThat's neat. Hope this line does well.
>>11832486>>11832472>>11832470>>11832462It's Larry's Proto-Joe idea he had for Marvel
>>11832431When they finally recolor Wild Bill to his animation color, I hope the give him horse and this Baroness with the alt Mary Belle head. Don't care if it's a con exclusive.
>>11832680I'd buy it in a heartbeat.
>>11832462Lou Diamond Phillips?
>>11832741You're thinking of La Bamba
>>11832457thats from hasbro
>>11832747No its from skeltron
>>11832481
>>11832805
>>11832809
>>11832812
>>11832814
>>11832815
>>11832815would buy, she cute
>>11832817That's the whole team. Wonder if we'll get any sort of bad guy for them
>>11832819Her eyes look like she's seen some shit.
>>11832827she has, it's that top secret file
i need more space but finally got the joe and cobra collection set up. Definitely missing Tomax , Xamot and Dr. Mindbender on the cobra side, Any joes you guys would recommend? I wanna get Shipwreck and Bazooka.
>>11832835>Dear god, Larry. The Chuck E. Cheese pizza scandal, it's true. It's all true.
>>11832820>Jelly asks "So what's your codename">"...Sp... Reverent. Like a ghost."
>>11832942Lmfao
>>11832843MASS Device Breaker and Big Ben are nice, IMO. Outback is really nice, but I vastly prefer the Tiger Force grizzled old man version over the regular release.Tomax and Xamot are perpetually like 50% off everywhere, so there is really no reason not to get them. Most of the other Dreadnoks are pretty nice, and most of the rest of the Viper types (Ally Vipers, Night Vipers, SAW, Range FRAG, etc). You also need some BATs.
>>11832975I do have Tigerforce Outback and Big Ben in a bin, just no room to properly show all of them off. I wish i hadn’t slept on the Dreadnoks because in the canadian money they’re expensive as fuck
>>11832843Is that Sgt. Slaughter?
>>11832996yeh
>>11832805Hasbro is probably feeling back-stabbed by Hama right now.
>>11832820Totally not Snake Eyes >>11832817Totally not Storm Shadow >>11832815Totally not Lady Jaye >>11832814Totally not Breaker turned negro>>11832812Totally not Stalker>>11832809Totally not Gung Ho>>11832805Totally not Flint
>Fury ForceOther than no one really having appropriate mag pouchs for most of theor guns triggering my /k/tism, they look good. Probably the closest we'll get to a Vietnam line in the scale.
>>11832820>"There was an... accident... unloading toilet paper and glue from a supply drop. I don't wanna talk about it, it's kinda embarrassing."Jokes aside these guys are super cool. Hope it does well, feels almost like Valaverse but without the retarded spite element. And, you know, good.
>>11833188It feels like Hama is saying "HOW DO I REVISIT CHARACTERS I CREATED FOR HASBRO AND RE-DO THEM IN A WAY THAT'LL HOPEFULLY NOT PISS OFF HASBRO AND PUT ME INTO A WAR AGAINST THEM?"
>>11833081I kinda hope this lights a fire under Hasbros ass to do Sgt. Savage and his Screaming Eagles, finally get some World War 2 stuff.
>>11833069Totally a faggot.
>>11832805I'm buying this guy just because he's like 90% of the way there towards being a Naked Snake figure.
>>11833265They should do something with the property. Wouldn't be surprised if Bobby did Savage-lite in his Action Force 1944 line.
>>11833274oh good point i didn’t know valaverse was expanding into historical stuff i thought they only did futuristic junk
>>11833066If I had to guess I bet he feels backstabbed by them. I bet he brought this project to them and they snubbed it. >>11833193Basically this >>11832666I actually don’t believe this is a vintage drawing. Supposedly this team / story pre-dates GIJOE. Maybe it partially does but I don’t fully buy it. This drawing looks modern, faked to look old and rough. Hamma is a leftist and they’re all sheisters. He wants to double dip on creation at best.
>>11833381Hasbro did create the ARAH Joes around Hama's work, though. Hama wanted his own version of Nick Fury's team in Marvel Comics, Hasbro wanted a line that could compete against Star Wars and He-Man, and both crossed paths to produce something that's still awesome today. That's long-established. Whether or not we can authenticate the art as being from then, well all we have is Larry Hama's word.
>>11833389Thanks for the info that every real Joe fan already knows since we were children. You added nothing of substance to support or refute anything I said
>>11833288Yeah, he's showed off renders of the first wave of everything. Personally the only real hilights were the WWII Rocketeer and the Flak 38, but ymmv.
>>11833517Pics of said rocketeer?
>>11833590
>>11833389Hasbro didn't know anything about Hama's rejected Fury Force pitch to Marvel Comics pitch, they didn't base 1980s GI Joe on Fury Force, and they came to Marvel with the 1982 Joe toys already designed, at least in prototype form, and Hama wasn't even in the room when they met with Jim Shooter, Archie Goodwin and some other Marvel guys. By his own admission, Hama got the GI Joe comic job after everyone else who'd been asked had already turned it down, and it's at that point where where he recycled some of his Fury Force ideas into characterization for some of the original Joes.Somehow over the years the story has been mutated into the 1980s GI Joe toys being explicitly developed out of Hama's Fury Force pitch, by the same type of people who actually think Hama was the one creating and designing all the new characters that became new toys every year.
>>11832815I like this one, I like them all really.
I wish it were easier to get these BBTS figures across the pond, basically nobody stocks them here. More and more of them are looking cool, but it's hard to justify their imported price vs getting Chinese and Japanese figures for basically the same cost.
>>11833610Thats exactly what I figured
Some ID help, please.I believe this lot I succeeding in winning is Cobra customs but don't know the lore well enough.Sorry for the shitty close-up, and no this isn't AI upscaled, I just tried to right click and crop the area I had no clue what it was.I assume this guy just got a bunch of Destro heads (or printed out?) and added them to what looks like maybe the #46 Stalker body buck? Except this picture also makes them look newer, like they were custom printed? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
>>11833839That's a bunch of Metal Mouth figures from Hasbro's Fortnite line
>>11833844Ah, okay thanks!
>>11833839>>11833844So that's why that dude was so hard to find. Seriously though, Fortnite had some great figures, especially the Hasbro ones. I just wish their guns weren't so god damn cartoony.
>>11833852>Metal Mouth figures from HasbroIt looks like those tiny guns are in the holster, so I supposed it looks I'm getting those, but I don't see those things that look like bathroom toilet plungers.But yeah, the guns I found on-line that come in the loose figures look tiny as F. I won a fodder lot months ago that included a bunch of weapons with the heads I wanted, so I might see about subbing some of those guns out, but I'll probably still try to sell off at least three of those 5. But first want to see if a Legends/Joe replacement head works on these, before I feel I need to get rid of them. Or maybe some helmets?
>>11833852Nah, that line was horrible from the start
>>11833839>>11833844They look a little bit like Cobra troopers from the first live-action GI Joe movie. Whoever has them is probably using them as such.
>>11833938
>>11833600this is the first valaverse I will actually buy he should make more unique stuff like this instead of his usual knockoff Joe slop
>>11833600It actually doesnt look bad, and if the pic is legit it looks like Vala is doing more to bring the arms downs traight than Hasbro is. Now Vala can stop being a fag who hates attractive women, and give us Jennifer Connelly from the movie, too.
>>11834047I believe he mentioned Betty, so movie canon girlfriend isn't likely from him.
>>11833852I picked up a few at Ollie’s years ago for $10 each. Nice figures.
A few more BBWS figures were on display at Joefest that didn't get posted yet. I'm looking forward to their classified scale eagle force characters. I had exactly one of them as a kid, so now I want them all as an adult with no self control.
>>11834340
>>11834341No idea who this is, but it'd go well with those Valaverse insect guys if you got any of them.
>>11834342Finally, an absolutely terrible head sculpt monster guy.
These figures are a bit neat until you remember that they'll cost $40-50 a piece and not release for another 2-3 years
>>11833938>>11834000He hasn't shipped them but 'is packing them up' so hopefully I'll have them from his coast next week.I have some standard Hasbro Joe's but a shitty backdrop so I will need to go out the BBQ grill on the roof of our complex or someplace else to photograph like 5 of these and 5 standard vanilla Joe's but I'll put them through poses and upload it to IMGUR so I'm not spanning the thread and y'all can decide.I still probably won't keep them but I guess that's a 'see them in-hand decision?'>>11834341He looks great. I think I want a superior officer with a smaller weapon, like a handgun, but in context, it depends.>>11834343>absolutely terrible head sculptyeppersPants could be a bit more interesting, but the torso looks good, however. I want to see him with a futuristic weapon, I think.
>>11834341Only a shoulder cord? He need's a full-blown aiguilette for that right proper African dictator swag. Maybe a set of questionably acquired jump wings, lol.>>11834343Cool ammunition belts, I guess?
>>11833902I will never understand why people choose to post lies on the internet. >>11834061Nice, he's such a perfect troop builder figure that goes well with Joes. I wish I was able to grab multiples for cheap back in the day, but now I'm glad I settled for one. >>11834341Oh snap, is that General Mamba? I may have to grab some of these guys now. I've always wanted more villain factions for my Joes to fight that aren't related to Cobra. Stuff like the Red Shadows or I.R.O.N. Army or S.K.A.R., so getting R.I.O.T. is right up my alley. ....hot damn the 80s loved their villainous acronyms.
I kinda want these Fury Force guys for Predator scenes, think that would be pretty fun.
>>11834340That's not a big beautiful woman
>>11834446Good use for them.
>>11832476Larry needs to make more Bucky O'hare comics
>>11834343It's a homage to the Mamba Men, obscure villains that appeared in the UK's 'Battle Action Force' comic back in 1984.
When did General Mamba get race swapped?
>>11834340I don't see the point of eagle force without the gold uniforms. Were they scared they wouldn't look good in a larger scale (they wouldn't, but I'd still want them that way).
>>11834479Are they helmets or are those their mutant faces?
>>11832457Are these Skeletron figures any good, quality/articulation wise I mean? I rarely hear anyone talk about them anywhere.
>>11834340Posts like these make me feel poor. I can't even keep up with Classified and Valaverse, now there are 3 or 4 more military themed lines. At least in the 1:18 era Joes, Corp and other lines were affordable.
>>11834672Masks
>>11834485>When General Mamba>race swappedWhen that cheap Mego toy release came and they were too cheap to use different plastic to properly do a brown skinned, or whatever latino/hispanic nationality was intended by this kind of line art.
>>11834903He was meant to be a sub-Saharan dictator in the vein of Idi Amin, but MEGO was chickenshit and white-washed him when it came time for the figure to release.
>>11834485Woketards have been around for a very long time. It's just another case of "the villain is always White." Larry Hama is the same way with GI Joe. That's why 80s Cobra is entirely White except for the ninja, for which Hama has a change of heart to re-establish as a Joe. Of course it unintentionally backfired. The Joes have one iconic character while evil White Cobra has many.
>>11834402I got several of these as henchmen for Firefly since their colors match so closely. Unfortunately I’ve really fallen out of love with them because their proportions really are too cartoonish to fit in with classified. They do have pretty good articulation though. At this point my favorite thing about them is their backpacks. I have them on several classified figures, they look like something straight from 89 ARAH
>>11834931So you're not going to buy his figure?
>>11832820This would be great if you wanted to make a custom Joshua Graham or a Naked Snake
>>11835362Seems like a lot of extra work though
>>11834931>Larry Hama is the same way with GI Joedon't be dumb.Larry Hama had no say in what Cobra was, becasue 999999% of the characters were designed by HAsbro.Outside of Cobra, Hama had no problem writing south Americans and eskimos being villains, but since 99% of conflicts were about Russia/Cold War shit back then, the non-Hasbro villains were still predominantly white. I mean, would you really want GI Joe to intercede into shitty AFrican civil wars where they fought in Toyotas pick ups, which would be boring as fuck for advanced special ops groups like GI Joe?If anything, Hasbro is actually racist since almost non of the command characters in GI Joe are people of color. Since the only characters in Cobra who aren't masked are command characters, Hasbro decided a black character isn't worthy of being a leader. You could always have pretended any of the Cobra grunts were brown or black. Personally, i never did, but that's just me being racist because i never think of race. I'm practically hitler.Pic is one of the few Hama created characters that Hasbro made in 4 decades.
>>11834931You sound like a retarded bitch.
>>11835387Shadow Tracker was probably one of the coolest OC figures to come out of the Pursuit of Cobra line.
>>11835485I'm still pushing for a Classified Night Adder, I need my M.A.D. Commander in 1:12 scale.
>>11835652>Night AdderIf they chose Cobra's flying dildo over a Firebat, I'd give up on the line forever. The more I think about it, the more I feel like Tony and that other D-bag were holding back the line to try to keep it going for as long as possible.
>>11835672https://www.yojoe.com/action/09/nightadder.shtmlYou're a moron.
>>11835685>yojoeYou're a tool. The former owners sold that site to a company who uses it for data-harvesting, and stabbed everyone there in the back when they did it. <---also night adder. I'm feeling like you mgiht be thinking of that blue thing that was simply called the "Cobra Adder."
>>11835687I'm well aware of the VvV toy, but the fact you completely misread my post and then spewed another one of your dumb ass rants about the Firebat and shitting on the people who made the line over absurd conspiracy theories is why you're a moron.
>>11832815cool looking accessoiriesnot sure how well the female sculpt eill look in hand though
>>11835690I'm not following a link to a data-harvesting site, bro. You can post pics instead of being a shit-slinger like your usual self. 3DJoes and Joepedia are good reference sites in the absence of YoJoe.com
>>11835734They're such good references that neither of them have any information on this figure. .....you're as insufferable as you are moronic.
yojoe is hilarious, the owner is obviously one of those seething anti-classified fags
>>11835827https://www.reddit.com/r/gijoe/comments/1ryuq18/yojoecom_is_abandoned_right/
>>11835734Joeoedia is dogshit
>>11835845Yea, what happened to him is an absolute travesty and with it what happened to the community as well. It's obscene that anyone would do that with such a niche website and then let the entire reason they bought it go to waste as no longer updating it means it's far less useful as a resource database. I like 3D Joes, but it's information is actually far more limited in it's scope, only really focusing on the original ARAH run and stopping around the late 90s runs. It's got great potential, but hasn't really been updated much either, though it is far more cumbersome to browse. As shitty as Yojoe is, it's still one of the best resources for the figures and vehicles from all of Joe history between 82 to 2017ish.
>>11835900YoJoe wasn't niche, and was the most widely-known ARAH site on the internet.
>>11835845I hate how people don't want to construct their own websites anymore.Does anyone know how to make one anymore? I understand people's attachments to old places, but we used to have a new website everyday it seemed. People used to do that shit for the love of their fandom too, so they didn't care if it made money or was costing them to run it. What happened? Did youtube make everyone into a lazy retard?I think that admin should just abandon his want to continue on with yojoe.com and just make his own. It's pretty sad that an abandoned website such as yojoe.com is still the most comprehensive website about GI Joe figures 10 years later after it stopped being updated.>>118357344chan probably harvests more data on you than yojoe does. Almost all modern websites are built around that now. I hope you don't use youtube and never visit any of the major social media sites, because they're basically as intrusive as a crypto miner.
>>11835975Web hosting costs money and hosting a site with thousands of separate pictures costs a lot. This isn't Geocities anymore. You know, you could sack up and build and host the site yourself. But you're not going to do that, are you.
>>11836000like i said, back in the 90s, people were paying for their website out of pocket. I'm sure yojoe.com itself was one of those websites, because webhosting was super fucking expensive and they had next to no ads to pay the bills, muchless data harvesting. They didn't care if they didn't make a profit and would lose money everydayHell, when the dot come bubble burst in the early 00s, people were saying that subscriptions were the only way websites would survive because ad revenue dropped to next to zero again, yet dozens and even hundreds of websites still kept appearing without asking for money.I wasn't even talking about geocities or any of the shitty free hosters, because you couldn't get anything comprehensive from them anyway. Hosting data was way too expensive to give even a hundred MB away for free until probably the late 00s, if not 10s.So what happened that killed everyone's interest in making their own personal space for their fandom?As for me making my own website, I'm not the one asking for nearly a hundred thousand dollars just to buy up an old site. If the old admin and other oldfags who ran the site still want to do shit, there's nothing stopping them from creating their own site for a lot cheaper. Nothing would stop the old owner from helping out either or anyone from the community.
>>11835962>YoJoe isn't niche, it's the most popular website for this niche hobby!>>11835975>I think that admin should just abandon his want to continue on with yojoe.com and just make his own.>It's pretty sad that an abandoned website such as yojoe.com is still the most comprehensive website about GI Joe figures 10 years later after it stopped being updated.I can't imagine that'd be an easy choice to make considering how much absolute effort must have gone into making that site. It's awful what happened to him either way, but I doubt we'll ever see anything nearly as comprehensive like it ever again for ANY collector fandom. It's honestly kind of cruel of the new owners to treat it as they do knowing how many people in this fandom utilize the site yet knowing how little revenue it brings in overall. Why hold it so tightly if it's not making money and you have people willing to pay to take control of it back?
>>11836195It's tough, but it was never that admin's site. The owner wanted out or needed money, so he sold it.The site itself apparently makes at least 30k a year, so just by existing it's making quite a bit of money.Since the old admin still has ideas and wants to update it, he should just make his own site. Will it take time? Yeah, but the site itself was stuck in the 90s still. Tiny images that sorely needed replacing two decades ago.And it's not like he's actually rebuilding it from scratch, given the fact that nearly everybody "borrows" from everybody's else sites
>>11833610ThisJim Shooter came up with the idea that 'GI Joe' was the team's codename and Hasbro gushed over it.
>>11836288And a character reference to him in the comic book was race-flipped into a Black woman.

>>11837462I hope someday Hasbro will do the Viper's head to be more like the 1986 original, and vac-metallized like retro CC.
>>11837462I love that color scheme on the viper and I really hope they churn out that and more variants on the retro viper buckI spent 100 bucks on that vehicle 2 pack basically just for the sick red and black viper, and I'll try to get one or two more loose on ebay
In a Fourth of July Eve miracle, my local Walmart Nart FINALLY fucking got in the motherfucking Darklon/Footloose/Blowtorch/Frag Viper wave, nearly a year and a half after it first came out!My Walmart mother fucking skipped this wave when it first came out but somehow they got two cases in ages after the fact even thought they are drowning in a murderer's row of peg warmers: unsold black basketball Americans, zombie Hazmat goons with rocks coming out of their heads, worthless DEI affirmative action Guards women no one wanted or asked for, Cobra La Troopers no one asked for, and about 15 Dinosaur crap with mystery meat Donut Steel OC mad scientist no one wanted. Grabbed the last remaining Footloose Darklon and Blow Torch and a Frag Viper. They had a couple additional Frag Vipers but having to overdraft on my bank card as it was to get the four, I left the extra Frag Vipers there and hope they still have them when I come back when I get paid later this week...
>>11837759>In a Fourth of July Eve miracle, my local Walmart Nart FINALLY fucking got in the motherfucking Darklon/Footloose/Blowtorch/Frag Viper waveI very recently got in an argument with some stupid boomer who literally said the line is dead because this wave is on the shelves. I tried to explain to him that it is a fresh restock that will sell out in only a few days but he insisted they have been there for a year and will continue to sit there. I asked him for an update on the stock 3 days later and of course he did not reply
I actually tracked those all down on the aftermarket only for them to appear at my Walmart like 2 days later. They sold out quickly and restocked again already. Both times I found them Darklon was already gone. I found that interesting. He’s the only one from the wave I haven’t opened yet.
Just got home. Going to eat before I open them and I also need to dig out a spare Crimson Guardsman to mod Footloose to give him gloved hands (and hoping they fit and I don't have to eBay another pair of Retro Beachhead hands)
>>11837808Sidenote, I'm going to pretend Footloose is Internet Micro-Niche Celebrity guntuber King Trout because space case hippie isn't an interesting character
>>11837079That's a lot of projection. I don't shitfling. So fuck off retard. No one wants you here or in the collecting community.

>>11837759i went to a walmart i hadn't gone to in over 4 years and didn't have any pegs for GI Joes.I previously assumed they did, since its the biggest ones in my city.So i don't think any walmart in my city carries GI Joes anymore. I know of two other walmarts in two seperate cities next to mine that carry it though... but i haven't been to those in months.
>>11837881My Targets never used to carry them, but lately they have had some retro cards (still Stalker in some cases), and 'older' like Flint, but I picked up the Crazy Legs maybe a month ago and it was still at that same store just this week?They also have had boxes, some two packs and single box, but not much. I have ordered from Walmart without problems, unlike ordering McFarlane and having it repeatedly canceled and not delivered. Then again, supposedly Walmart stores had that 250 Anniversary Duke at regular MSRP and I could not order it from the website, for delivery OR shipping, unless it was WAY marked up and from a third party scalper.
>>11837781Lol, happened to me in March with the Night Viper, except I had no reasonable expectation to find any Joe's as my local store doesn't carry them. They currently have an ML D&W Blade, which I assume is a return like the NV was.
>>11837759They most likely had them sitting on a palette for the past year, but some dip-shit employees keep overlooking them. It would be nice if I could chance on a Crystal Ball or battle armor CC like that.
Happy Independence Day fellow Joemosexuals
>>11838143I really hope they do a retro-card version of him in brighter colors like the original.
I ended up with 30 plus backpacks in a fodder lot win.But only 18 actual Joe's in the lot. Plus some of the packs don't actually match up with the Joe's - most of whom had mixed gears, or the wrong head, or something else (Flint with cap and main rifle on Outback torso with Flint lower body) to sell as complete. Do these have any value to sell or dump say all the cobra packs in a lot and get rid of them? New to Joe's, in case it's not obvious. I know some collectors care with some characters about stuff being complete for easy resale, like Batman without a grapple gun if it sold that way, or Cap without the shield.But it feels like mix and matching is acceptable here? As long as it's not militarily stupid, like giving a shovel to a navy buck?Thanks.
>>118382239 times out of 10 I don't even display my figures with their backpacks onThey're usually solid plastic and aside from fucking up the balance, some are heavy enough to eventually start to warping a figures legs if they don't just make them fall over.
This is all the weapons I got with this lot, for example. And I probably will only sell 2-5 of the bucks I got, the random single Cobra alley viper or single Python - who will likely need to go without most of the gear they ship with. I do have two other lots from the last six months of random weapons and some of them are even Hasbro/Legends weapons but some will be something else. >>11838225So your advice is dump them all? And thanks!
>>11838229>So your advice is dump them all? And thanks!Yeah, I guess I would.I still keep all the ones I have now, but they all belong to their corresponding figures even I store the backpacks away, but if I had a ton of extra ones I'd probably get rid of them
>>11838229>>11838223This is a lot from someone who buys Gridiron packs
>>11838229Personally I would start piecing everything back together. See if you can make anyone complete and sell those first. Then sell the remaining stuff in related lots; “gun lot”, “viper backpack lot” ect
>>11838244I don’t see a single gridiron item. You must be suggesting this is the leftovers from re-arming them with Gridiron. That makes sense
>>11838248Gridiron sells replacement weapons and backpacks so this looks like a lot from someone who doesn't need the Hasbro ones anymore
>>11838244>>11838248This is the lot I won last week, from someone apparently getting out of the game. He had these >>11833839 Once I have more time, I still plan to post those Fortnite and some of the other stuff I might not keep but those Metal Mouth figures in hand really don't feel bad. They just don't come with anything. I don't even think I have 5 fire arms that look like the one in the open factory package I took off an ebay listing here: >>11834402I bought weapons in actually about four fodder lots, now that I checked, but only two of those lots has a good chunk of weapons.But I don't want to eat up a lot of the weapons I got by kitting out figures I don't intend to keep and want to sell off to reimburse me for some of these expenses. If someone gave me enough to clear, after ebay or Pay Pal G&S fees, $22-25 for those 5 Fortnite figures, I would probably be satisfied, without anything other than one gun per each. I need to actually figure out what this crap is worth, stripped. Anything more than giving one random gun on each Metal Mouth Royale hurts my head to think about.
AND THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR SERVICE IN CHIMING IN!
I decided today was a good day to play with some Joes (aka every day) so I added some additional functional climbing gear to Hit & Run’s arsenal courtesy of some old 3.75” movie figure. I need to go back through my 3.75” collection and find more stuff that is out of scale like these carabiners that I can use for classified.
My son and I were zip lining and rappelling him all over the house lol
>>11838390>>11838395You're cool anon, ziplines are the best.
>>11838464Thanks bro. We try to have fun
I like Darklon way, way more than I was expecting to. Quite the opposite of Overkill who I was very excited for and ended up feeling let down.
>>11838395>>11838469Looks fun.Poor Flint - already facially scarred and back for more.
The Dire Night Creeper looks pretty cool with the monster hands from the Ghost Viper since the rest of his arms are all green.
>>11838538
>>11838538>>11838540great stuffI put the cobra head on the creeper and the wolf head on the viper
>>11838469>>11838471What the fuck is Darklon supposed to be? A lizard man?
>>11838625unknownhe is destro's cousin, so he is probably human but he's also from the spooky made up country of Darklonia and not Scotland like Destro so maybe he's of the night in some way
>>11838625All the Iron Grenadiers save Voltar from their initial release wave were Cobra La troops that Hama convinced Hasbro to turn into a Destro faction instead.Darklon became Destro's cousin who ran his own micro nation in Europe who joined the IGs. Hasbro wanted him to be Destro's second in command but Hana hated Darklon and wrote him as a glorified used car salesman who sold Cobra vehicle surplus to anyone with money, which later got turned into an excuse plot to introduce Python Patrol. In his debut, the artist slipped in a scene where Darklon appeared unmasked and he's a white guy and clean shaven/no facial hair.Fan theory is that Darklon wears contacts to look like a lizard man to look scary.Hama stans hate the fucker and he didn't even get featured In the DIC episodes. But toy collectors love the fucker for looking cool and bad ass and the fact that rival in the faction, Voltar looks like a flaming faggot with his hot pink armor
>>11838540>>11838538I really wish they had used glow-in-the-dark or clear florescent green plastic instead of dull green.
>>11838629He is an intended Cobra-La character that quickly got repurposed as a Cobra when Hasbro realized that kids didn't like the movie or Cobra-La. There's several characters like that. Frag Viper and Hydro-viper are two more.
My friend in Albany, whom I chat with almost daily, and am sending stuff his way soon, was asking about bases for his Joe's that didn't come with stands - when I said I had a bunch I was dumping to unload. Of course, instead of the plain, bland, black neutral ones, he wanted to see if a Joe could stand up on your Basic Bitch Batman stand.
>>11838769Or your friend could just go to eBay and buy all the stands he can make use of.
>>11838625I was wondering this too. I think he is a reptile man. Look at the back of his head, pretty sure that’s not a mask that’s his skin
>>11839050He's wearing a balaclava, as established in his first comic appearance, as he takes off the gas mask and adjusted the hood to show his face in that comic.Also, modern versions of Darklon like the Classified versio, add detail lines to his suit so it's not skin. And the eyes are just contact lenses
>>11839069Nope
>>11832431I posted this in another thread i thought was the gi joe general, but the cock suckers at wal-mart cancelled my tmnt x gi joe shredder cobra commander vs mikey shipwreck preorder where the fuck am i supposed to get the cobra commander shredder fusion action figure now?
>>11839128>where the fuck am i supposed to get the cobra commander shredder fusion action figure now?Target?
>>11839134Or, ya know, Walmart. Only the two packs are exclusive to them, they're still selling them individually too.
My classified overkill came in today and his mask wont fit on at all. I think its not only retarded they made him have a mask since this overkill is meant to be a full robot and not a cyborg and now i cant even have his classic appearance cuz the mask wont fit to cover her cyborg fleshie face. Thanks alot hasbro.
>>11839140Glue it on. Problem solved.
>>11839140Glue it
>>11839134Thanks i found CC that way by finding the barcode online
>>11839140Just glue it, sounds like you wouldn't have a reason to have it unmasked ever
>>11839508Gung Ho and Zartan are keepers. The rest is fodder, especially captain smiley.

Some people have all the luck when it comes to finding discounted figures. Like me today. Location USA South East region.
>>11839883Sweet reddit post bro
>>11839128
>>11839995I don't mean to pick on you, but I genuinely never got the appeal of ninja turtles
>>11840295Bought to flip, bro. I'm neither 12 nor man child.
>>11839995Dude you replied to here, i bought the cobra commander shredder anyways from target i didnt really need shipwreck mikey>>11840295>>11840325TMNT has more good shows and comics but the OG gi joe cartoon mogs the fuck out of the 80s tmnt cartoon
>>11840295You had to be a kid, living in the late 80s-early 90s TMNT hype to get it. It was everywhere. I had a girl classmate in third grade who was obsessed with Donatello. The arcades were insanely popular. The newer TMNT from 2003-onwards just didn't compare to the massive pop culture shift the original run had. It's why companies have been milking it for years now instead of using the newer TMNT stuff.
>>11839612I stopped bidding well before it hit $65 this because I agree that most of it was fodder, that's why I wanted it, but someone else thought otherwise -- even though they are missing a lot of their gear or have crappy replacement weapons in a few cases, they might as well saved a crappy gun and given one of them a cheap AEW championship belt instead.
>>11841005I always price my lots at around 10 bucks a figure if its complete. Only time that's not working is for some reason my kenner aliens lot.
I guess the arctic Baroness and Cobra Commander was just a baseless rumor. That sucks so damn much. At any rate, the Snowcat should be coming out within the next couple of months with the Cobra Arctic 3-pack and arctic HISS shortly afterwards.
>>11841285SDCC is in 2 weeks, they might have save those to have something new during their panel.
>>11841332I hope that's true because I was largely under-whelmed by "Yo Joe June."
>>11841364They announced a decent amount of shit and finally shut up O13 fags. What could they have announced that would've moved the needle for you?
>>11841389firebatpolar battle bearmocassinrattler repaintrattler Baroness repaintCC/Baroness arctic 2-packmore dreadnoksSerpentor
Doing anything interesting with your extra armor from Budo?
>>11838635>>11838735I just don't see it with Frag-Viper or the original Iron Grenadier, those guys are obviously wearing human clothing, Frag-Viper has bootlaces even. They just don't fit the Cobra-La aesthetic. Nullifier on the other hand was absolutely a repurposed Cobra-La figure, that thing looks inhuman.
>>11841598That Japanese samurai looks awfully Italian
>>11841094I would agree with you but they were missing gears. So personally, I could use 5 and had to treat the rest as fodders. Nowadays, if you are patient, you can get even new bucks for $3/4 in lots. Not Classifieds, mind you but I also don't mean junk. I personally had no use for the rest and once I start paying more a few bucks each for the unwanted figures. At the moment, I have too much crap I should unload and didn't need to add to it. There's another lot I was looking at but everyone was fully kitted out, plus AND it had three vehicles. I still stopped bidding but it was less bodies and it just got too rich. It's over $100 now and still has a few days to go. I've seen auctions like that double so I am fine stepping away. I don't need to bid against myself.
>>11841666It's-a him, Bushido!
>>11839995When is the He-Man X GI Joe collab?
Should Hasbro copy the Ninja Force CC design and make him into a figure for the Classified line? Any GI Joe designs Super7 makes under license is automatically owned by Hasbro, right?
>>11842287>"Cobra Commander! SHould we invest in more mutants, dinosaur clones, raising the undead, spacecraft, and aircraft for air superiority?">"No! We shall out our resources in people who know karate and can kick very well!"
I know they have some figures now, but what about in the 80's. What if G.I. Joe the Movie was more successful. Would you buy Cobra La toys? Figures packed with big ass bug monsters?
>>11842491No.IT'd be worse than the stupidest stuff they made in the 90s.If Hasbro wants stupid bugs and monsters, they should make another seri-- oh wait, they did and it bombed badly.
>>11842560Holy fuck the nostalgia, I had that stupid yellow guy, even as a kid I thought he looked terrible, I forgot they existed.
>>11842617Are you hating on D'compose? Damn this stuff was wasted on you.
>>11842653DEEEECOOOMMPOOOOSE!!!!
>>11842653Voiced by Chris Latta
>>11842653No the yellow guy in the suit with the sphere legs.
>>11842491Yes, bugs are cool. I have the Classified Cobra-La Royal Guard and he's an absolutely fantastic toy.
>>11842560remember, these all took place in the same continuity as G.I. Joe
>>11842491Cobra-La was a terrible idea. It really was. Kids rightfully hated it, which is why Hasbro was quick to abandon it
>>11842914I WILL TURN YOU INTO A CRAB!!!!
>>11842912I picked this Iron Man up the other at DDs and the head was perfect for a Hector Ramirez. Now I just got to figure which suite body would work.
>>11839612That Cody Rhodes, he has a neck tattoo and stuff.
>>11842491>>11842914Why would people hate this? You can do so much more with soldiers fighting subterranean monsters than goons. In the PG sense at least.
>>11842560It didn't so much bomb as it was absolutely killed off by parent's groups because this show was METAL. The monsters were the real stars and they did not hold back, body horror and gruesome deaths abound in that series and it was one of the darkest kids series the 80s ever put out(both literally and figuratively). It got yanked from TV because parents complained about the monsters and the violence in the cartoon before it could get a second season and introduce the next super giant monster in the series....the literal Devil. Inhumanoids was very much an experiment and sacrificial lamb to see how far they could push toys and children's programming back in the day. The toys actually did really well compared to most toylines...but compared to the dual juggernauts of Transformers and G.I. Joe, Hasbro didn't feel like it was successful enough. Also, the show is in canon with G.I. Joe.>>11842617>>11842811The human figures were actually pretty terrible, but iirc they were originally planned to be organic mech suits with the figures inside being removable G.I. Joe sized figures. But the tight budget just lead them to be awkwardly proportioned suits with tiny heads. >>11842912I absolutely hate how they just fail so hard at reinventing this concept for modern times. Back then it was just kind of tongue in cheek references, but I would love to see this idea get the full on MCU effect....only in cartoons. I mean, they'd need to actually make good cartoons again and just doing that seems like an impossible feat these days. But just pump out a couple of cool cartoons and have them reference each other building up to a big old crossover or something.
>>11843176>The human figures were actually pretty terribleThe human figures are supposed to be the same size as GI Joe figures but in large suits. That's why they have GI Joe-sized heads on those bigger bodies.
>>11843231>The human figures are supposed to be the same size as GI Joe figures but in large suits. That's why they have GI Joe-sized heads on those bigger bodiesIt's kind of shocking how many people don't understand this.
>>11843337Yeah like >>11843176>figures inside being removable G.I. Joe sized figures. But the tight budget just lead them to be awkwardly proportioned suits with tiny headsHoly fuck he almost got it
>>11843340You know the awkward proportions, along with how they scaled with the monsters, made it seem really obvious to me they were meant to be people in battle armor.
This feels like the kind of plastic paint wont stick to but a quick shitty brushing of silver makes this look a bit better
>>11843367If you used acrylic paint then don't stress it. Acrylic paint sticks well on plastics that enamel paint won't set in on at all.
>>11843340....perhaps I worded that poorly, but that is exactly what I meant. These guys were supposed to be G.I. Joe scaled figures in suits, and while they still are technically, the final toy doesn't actually reflect that. So instead of feeling like a guy in a bio-mech suit, it feels like a tall guy with a tiny head. Wave two would've actually added human villains in similar "suits" and possibly even the actual G.I. Joe Ace in a jet themed suit where his legs were thrusters since an accident left him paralyzed from the waist down in the canon. Sadly this franchise, like many other Hasbro properties from that time, are locked in Trademark hell since much like Transformers and Joes, a lot of the names and stories were created by Marvel just as much as they were Hasbro. >>11843367It's always nice to see a quick coat of paint to help the really nice sculpting hidden away on Hasbro figures. Their guys do some amazing sculpt work, but the figures always fall apart in the paint department.
>>11843532>So instead of feeling like a guy in a bio-mech suit, it feels like a tall guy with a tiny head.I don't agree with that, I think only (not you) retards think this because they have to ignore everything else about the figure and the line to think this.
>>11843620>>11843532It's very explicitly giant Power Armor, two even have proportions that don't work with if these were like Iron Man like armors
>>11843631>>11843620>>11843532I think the reason everyone gets this wrong is because in the cartoon they are normal sized
>>11842914Kids didn't hate it.
>>11843176>It didn't so much bomb as it was absolutely killed off by parent's groups because this show was METALsounds like bullshit, because it would have definitely garnered media attention if it got canceled for thatThe fact is that the 80s cartoons was totally controlled by parent groups (actually childless pre-DEI fucks), so anything the show was produced under their careful guidence.The show ran its full course on TV, instead of being pulled. Biggest clue that there was no major controversy.And the toyline was one of my first experiences with associating cheap toys on clearance with the subject itself not being popular.So it very much bombed.
>>11843815>The show ran its full course on TV, instead of being pulled. Biggest clue that there was no major controversy.It's probably more of a case of Hasbro's contract with Sunbow ran its course, and it's time to replace it with DIC because afterwards was Operation Dragonfire followed up with 2 - 3 seasons of DIC GI Joe.
>>11842107That actually looks really good and I was already working on something along those lines
>>11843953I swear I'm gonna use that Road Pig helmeted head for a goblin or orc someday.Odd request, but does anyone know if they used those retro-carded Gung-Ho hands anywhere else? I've got a figure that needs bare gripping hands, but normal hand options aren't doing it scale-wise. The 1st version Gung-Ho's hands fit the bill in regard to size but are gloved. Thanks.
Super7 announced they’re putting out a Flightpod and it appears a Cobra Trooper.
A Python Patrol repaint is the SDCC exclusive.
>>11843932>Inhumanoids totally didn't bomb with children audiences, it was actually parents saying that it was satanic and gorey that got it canceled!>oh, did that sound like bullshit? Well, I'll change my story that it was actually their contracts running out with studios that got it canceledwhy are bullshitters so stupidly bad at lying?Nevermind Jem and Visionaries were still being doing by Hasbro and Sunbow for years after Inhumanoids got canned.I think the only series that could coexist with GI Joe is COPS, because everything else is just too wacky and overpowered to actually fit in with GI Joe.Shit like Transformers doesn't really mesh with GI Joe, because where's all the military shit going on when giant robots are constantly attacking humans and stealing their resources? There would be on going military operations everyday and topography changing explosions every month until either the Decepitcons were eradicated or humanity was completely enslaved.With COPS, you're in the far future year of 2019, where crooks have cybernetically enhanced themselves to make theft easier and cops slowly adopt futuristic stuff that only military elite forces like GI Joe used to in the past. COPS and GI Joes wouldn't step on each other's toes by existing in the same universe and you wouldn't need to ignore that city sized monsters/robots could step in at any moment to be an instant win button for the good guys/bad guys.
>>11844396Looks more like the original than the one they showed off.
>>11844518Visionaries was also a 2987 single-year line. >>11844396Cool. That gives me high hopes for an affordable Firebat. The Cobra mothership was supposed to come with one, so it's probably that.
>>118446291987. I hate phone-posting.
>>11844518>When a bobsled becomes a police car I guess someone thought that looked cool
>>11844396>>11844400Curious to see how they'll work with ME sized figures. But I'm sure they'll have a far more cartoony aesthetic then the 1:18 ME version already on the market. >>11844518Nobody changed their story, you're "quoting" two completely different people. Also, again, the reason why Jem kept going, but Inhumaoids was cut was because the latter was pushing the boundaries of dark story telling and literal body horror on children's television. It was one of the first actual shows of the time to tell an actually narrative story that is continued between episodes and feature darker story overtones and on screen human deaths. The series itself was great, and the monster toys were awesome. But the dark subject matter and higher price point for said monsters both hurt it in the long (short) run. The toys did decent numbers, but couldn't even touch the top brands at the time so comparatively it was judged a failure. Both Inhumanoids and Jem were popular enough to be moved from being Sunday Supershow shorts and turned into their own independent series. But Jem went on to become a cultural juggernaut to rival G.I. Joe and Trasnformers while Inhumanoids was a crazy experiment at making a horror series for kids. .....and Visionaries came out a year after Inhumanoids, had the same amount of episodes, and the toyline lasted just as long with a single wave. Visionaries failed just as hard and fast as Inhumanoids, but it didn't have the dark story telling or larger scale figures as reasons for it's failure.
Ninja Force figures have started showing up at Target.
Tiger Force Wild Bill is also out on pegs.
>>11844806Here’s the prototype they showed off back during the Mothership crowdfund.
>>11844929Why let a good mold go to waste? I hope it's not bullshit-priced.
>>11844996I noticed it says Bigbadtoystore on the photo. Brian Flynn said it would be difficult to get a decent price for a vehicle when Hasbro can produce them in a high enough volume to charge a lower price. Flynn said if he could get an online retailer to commit to a high enough volume he could produce something at a better price a vehicle but it it still might be pricey and he would feel more comfortable doing small vehicles like the Trubble Bubble. Expect like $50 or more on the price tag. Hopefully it comes with the Cobra trooper from the picture and the flight stand. People will army build them if there’s a trooper.
>>11844806oh, so you're doubling down on the stupid lie?Do you have any proof to prove it's not a stupid lie? What you type sounds like you're repeating some stupid youtuber who just say stupid shit without proof too.>The toys did decent numbersAlso a stupid lie, because they don't cancel a toyline for doing decent numbers. Lots of mediocre toylines keep going if they're proven sellers, especially back in the 80s when there was a ton more room for toylines.Toylines back then didn't need to have blockbuster sales, hence the much larger variety of toys we used to have available.>>11844996was there a mold made until recently? Because that's the entire point of a fundraiser like that, because molds are so expensive they can't do it without a fundraiser. Since that was such a small part, they only molded it until recently once they got enough interest or they thought it would sell at normal retail.Also, it'll be bullshit if it can't fit normal sized 1:18 figures. The older GI Joe vehicles could fit 1:18 in all but a few vehicles.
>>11844128>retro-carded Gung-Ho hands>1st version Gung-Ho's hands fit size but are glovedYou know, I didn't realize how many characters wear gloves until I started looking because I have several entire baggies I have bought of what are supposed to be Classified hands that are flesh colored, just not even paired up, much less identified. I guess they are probably like those deluxe packs that came with six hands and just a bunch of a handful of those got dumped in these baggies?Anyways, what about the Quick Kick from the Night Force two pack? Both L+ R grips look similar, if not identical, even if the hands are possibility a tad bit smaller?
>>11845201Not him, but I still hate that figure. That's not Quick Kick. That's Billy from Predator.
>>11845201Those might work. Thanks for the lead, Anon.
>>11845493>That's not Quick Kick. That's Billy from Predator.I don't own it, I have a ton of hands but they are not identified, I haven't even taken the time to even pair shit up. I just did what I did to get some hands for Flint, match up the Hasbro Pulse and other promo shots for Gung Ho, with his arms and in particular his wrist and do a quick skim of hands or arms listed on ebay and then narrow it down some more.Now, to be honest, I was bored and full and waiting to digest so I could lie down and relax with some comics or games or video or I wouldn't have spent the time on something not for me or some stranger. And then I just picked a picture from an eBay sale that looked closes (IMHO) to the Retro GH. It's the kinda shit I used to get paid for when I still did research and analysis. Now I just waste my time and money on toys.
>>11844996i don't get everyone's desire for that flight pod. They were readily available in the 25th line. It's not like they are hard to find or expensive. And they are better detailed too.
>>11846089True, but one vehicle lends to the possibility of other new vehicles. Since Super7 does the cartoon stuff and the cartoon does smudge proportions sometimes, it'll be interesting to see what they do.
So we're dried up until SDCC, eh?
>>11846480yeah, but its only a week away.
What real life person would you have wanted to see join G.I. Joe?Hard mode: Can't say Rocky.
>>11846659
>>11846659Mike Vining on the right.
>>11846860
>>11846659Walker Texas Ranger.
>>11846659Since you say "would have" instead of just want, I assume you mean it has to be someone who was famous enough in the late 80s to warrant a Joe figure. I can't really think of anyone other than Michael Jackson.
>>11847077I guess it could be someone now. why not?
>>11847077Michael Jackson as a Joe? for real? What would he do on a battlefield? Grab his dick while screeching and saying "Y'ALL IGNORANT?"There's plenty of good late-80s choices from Bruce Willis to Chuck Norris, Dolph Lundgren, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Carl Weathers, and others.
>>11846860I want him so bad But Im too poor currently
>>11847300Its still in stock everywhere. The price will start dropping sooner or later.
>>11847314I hope hes like the Stinger
>>11846659I cannot think of a single real person dead or alive who is even close to as perfect a fit as Sgt Slaughter was. No one is as iconic and a military related figure in the world currently. >>11846752>>11846957>>11847295But I’ll be damned if some of the suggestions in this thread aren’t about as good as they possibly could be. >>11846860Why the fuck isn’t the sword in his shield removable? That would’ve been so cool.
I don't think even the sabers on the far left ever belonged to any Joe's. I want to keep the huge sword on the bottom right and the the three immediately to its left for possible fantasy medieval toys - but everything else looks like stuff I could kit out some Cobra or other customized action figure to dump? Or am I missing something? I have some Ninjas and a Destro I want to sell.
Same stupid question. Don't think any of these are Classified weapons, but maybe Hasbro Legends. The rifle and a few others would possibly work - so I guess which ones, besides the really obvious SCIFI versions, should I not consider? And thank you.
>>11847913I have that Draco on the top left and have been wondering where it came from. Is it an old Deadpool? Speaking of Deadpool, the shotgun with drum mag is from Juggernaut Wave Deadpool. The dark gray sci fi guns are cable. The brown shotgun is from a marvel legends guy I can’t remember his name. He’s silver and black with a mask. Pretty sure those are all ML weapons
>>11848025Yep, that's what I figured. When I have time tomorrow, I'll search that Marvel Legends database but it's pretty useless for accessories. Thanks!
SDCC Exclusive Python Patrol Trubble Bubble with Cobra Trooper Pilot revealed!
>>11848274>>11848277>>11848281>>11848284I like it. I hope it's not bullshit-priced.
>>11848417Now come on that's like hoping the sky will be sand textured tomorrow You should instead expect it be over priced so you can be pleasantly surprised instead
>>11847384It's so he can surprise people who think the sword can come out by revealing its actually a gun
Another photo posted by Super7 showing the standard Trubble Bubble which comes with a black guy version of the Cobra Trooper. I presume the white guy version will be a single carded release.
Triple T renders tomorrow? Or other unannounced surprises?
New one's up:>>11848975
>>11847295This would be the greatest thing ever
