G.I. Joe Classified Series

Oh they're actually giving us a corded grapple hook gun finally along with Desert Scorpion? I don't have to bust out the stretchy cord and super glue? That's neat. Honestly makes that gun from a 0 to a 9 out of 10 so it's nice they're finally finishing the product.
 
They also do security and stuff, checkpoints, but yeah... If one of the joes was bad, Law and Order are gonna have to step in.
 
I'm imagining this but it's Outback for being badass and breaking the rules!

We need proper police jabronis for this.
 
Law 100% pulls Shipwreck over driving drunk on base and escorts him home. "Hector. I'm not going to write this up, but you gotta--"
"GUNG HO DARED ME"
"Gung Ho can drink like a fish and also always walks to the bar because he's not stupid."
"Shiver me timbers!"
"Don't be a NARC, Polly!"
"Wait, is the bird drunk too?"
"Why do you think I was driving? bird's shitfaced. He was supposed to be our DD."
"Go to BED, Shipwreck. Drink some water. I'll check in on you tomorrow."

Anyway, L&O are fuckin' amazing. Great face sculpt, love the details on the vest (I mean I would've liked a removeable flashlight and better cuffs, but still great). Don't know if this is just mine or everyone's, but his hands seem a little too tight to hold onto the Uzi? But they work perfectly for the nightstick and pistol, so the uzi can be decorative. And Order is a VERY GOOD BOY and PERFECT in every way. He refuses to wear the stupid helmet even when Law says it's to protect his eyes.

Also, they didn't need to give us a bunch of hands giving dog commands and did, and I appreciate the extra mile.

I have known a lot of bite-y German Shepherds in my life (great dogs but they do love to herd you with their teeth) but I have this mental image or Order just... not. "Order! Stop licking the Cobra! Git him! Git -- never mind, Mutt, can you send Junkyard in there to teach Order how to be mean?"
 
The uzi handle is huge. I swapped on TF Outback's hands and they look great, but the same issue persists, huge handle.

I am so fucking beyond fucking sick and fucking goddamned tired of fucking store fucking exclusives of fucking unique fucking characters, and while you shouldn't be taking it out on the people presenting the panel, Hasbro higher ups sure as fucking shit need to hear that fucking disgust from us, or we're going to keep getting fucked like abuse victims going back to our abusers.

This level of vitriol is a bit crazy. I understand that store specific exclusives can sometimes be frustrating but the reality of the toy market we live in is that without store exclusives there would just be fewer figures overall. Without their own exclusives the major retailers have less incentive to carry the figure line at all. The day the store exclusives go away is probably a day before the entire line goes away.

I assume it was Law who threw Falcon in the slammer after he was trying to get some stank on his hang low with Jinx and screwed everything up.

That was my nickname in high school.

Not really. I AM Irish.
 
Also...my Rattler. My wife asked where I was going to put it (I had flashes of Christmas Vacation...). I told her in the basement next to my Razor Crest...which is off on a corner of a counter.

I had my youngest son (13) help me. He was so enamored with it all. I only put the base plane together. It's bulky, and huge.

Pictures hidden if you don't want to see your 715th Rattler online.

Hey, congratulations, you missed the entire point of my justified anger!

There is literally no reason they can't do repaints. There are a LOT of repaints or even alternate costume that collectors want, sometimes more than the regular/recognizable versions. And the executives at the stores wanting the exclusives literally won't know the difference. Unlike fucking Hasbro who not only puts the first release recognizable versions as store exclusives, but also convention exclusives, and HasLab exclusives.

They can all go fuck themselves with a machete.

I set a reminder that the Steel Brigade Bunker is pre-ordering today, but now I can't seem to find confirmation of that. Was I fever dreaming?

I was just jumping into the thread to confirm too - it's the wave and the bunker at 1 EST today, right? I just checked Hasbro Pulse's official socials posts and it does say today but they don't specify a time.
