G.I. Joe Classified - News & Updates

[Damien]

I'd pretty much guarantee that no HasLab still means we -are- getting an MTO.

Watched the latest Tomb Raider trailer today during the State of Play presentation. I like that model of Lara a lot. A Classified figure based on that would be pretty neat.

Even without a haslab, there's Zanya and Destro and King CC and the pod/varmint and Rottclaw and fawk. Plenty to spend on

Without context, this would sound like the biggest pile of nonsense

G2123 - (Unknown) (Pulse) 2-Pk
G3298 - HER Tami (Pulse) VEH

Updated the first post a little bit. I didn't have G2123 listed as a 2-pk, nor G3298 as a vehicle. Both are Pulse exclusives.

The arctic repaints that they showed renders for months ago might be ready to order soon.

Good point!

And B-Mac is playing the old marketing/publicity game of putting out "bad" news at weird times where it might get lost in the shuffle.

I wonder if people really are going to bitch about it. I mean, most folks here don't see no Haslab as a negative, but I suppose the internet is going to internet. And people will say it died with Lenny and the line is dying... Sigh. Humans.

 

[Chooch555]

Re-reading "don't see no Haslab as a negative" and feeling how much that English degree atrophied in the last almost 30 years.

Why do you do this to yourself? Help me help you.

Yeah, I think most of us with enough brain cells to rub together are probably going to come to the conclusion that no HasLab is a good choice. The economy isn't great, so trying to release a bunch of product AND another 300+ dollar item might not be great for them. The MTO format seems to allow them to do almost anything they could do as a HasLab with just fewer bells and whistles that plenty of people don't care -that- much about anyway.

But you will definitely get a few of the usual suspects that will doom and gloom anything, so... what can ya' do. Those are the same people that said Hasbro would never do hooded CC because they're woke cuck cowards... or something. As opposed to smart people that said 'they'll do it, just not at B&M retail on Walmart's toy shelves.' Lookie what happened.

I don't know about any of you but for me that Trubble Bubble being in a two-pack is money lost. I usually buy at least 4 of those so this time I want buy even one because I don't really have a hankering for another Snake Eyes so soon after the last one. What I want is for Hasbro to reissue that Amazon exclusive Arctic Mission Storm Shadow but let it be fan channel this go around.

Uncoupling from the HasLab is likely to lead to more product and more creativity within said product, in my view. MTO and these “unusual” SKUs like this CoCo are honestly preferable to me.

@Damien totally wants this too!
We absolutely just need a reissue of this instead of an all-new, accurate Ninja Force Storm Shadow, amirite??
