G.I. Joe Classified - News & Updates

Due to monetary concerns, I cut Joe out completely awhile ago.
But damn, that Cobra Commander is soooooo tempting...
 
Hasbro did me a massive solid today because these preorders go up exactly when the play both my daughters are in starts, so I was dreading being the asshole on his phone for the first five minutes while cursing "but that IS a valid fucking phone number". All I want today is the CC, so.... thank you, Hasbro!
 
I didn't catch if this is concept art or what, but this is what they showed during the name reveal of the Legacy figure:

Frick, I'm gonna buy another Vamp, aren't I...

Also, I suppose I'm destined to never complete the original l2-13. I just don't need every vehicle, especially the stationary rocket launching ones. I don't have space for that. I may have to resort to customs.

I know how you're feeling. I really don't need another VAMP, especially since it'll end up in a box in my closet because there's no room to display it. But it looks so damned cool that I might end up tempted into buying it anyway.
 
Haha I got my order in for CoCo so fast that they pulled down then put back up the page after I was already done.

All the reveals are fantastic. I *love* that they were all “yeah this is Deep Six but it doesn’t have to be Deep Six we know some folks just want cool shit for displays and other lines and we’re working with that too”,
 
Well... on one hand it's nice to get another shot at Clutch since I've decided to collected the OG13. On the other, why not stick him in a retro card? Plus... another missile launcher thing I need to try and sell on Marketplace. Yay.
 
Grabbed Cobra Commander off Pulse. I live alone with my daughter and we have the entire apartment walled with movie and comic posters so in the door way area I'm putting together a couple small tables to hold my Joes and create a battle scene with the vehicles, HISS tanks and Dragonfly so space pretty soon won't be an issue again until it is, lol.
Edit, I forgot about Action Man that was a nice surprise.

I also got CC from EB Games, but I'm hoping for a hooded retro. Now that I've bought this one, it's all but guaranteed.
 
If you are using a VPN when logging into Pulse that could be the issue. I didn't have my VPN on and Pulse never red highlighted my phone number and went right to payment info.
 
So CoCo sold out in under an hour? The CoCo that they assured was in plentiful supply during the stream? That CoCo? ... I'm sure he'll go back up at some point but this whole "preorder sold out" nonsense as a FOMO marketing gimmick, which really only serves to give me homework in keeping on top of when I will get a 2nd chance to preorder a thing I was going to preorder anyway without the FOMO is super annoying.

Well you're in luck. It is going to be a mainline release so it will be everywhere. Which means it is all but guaranteed to go on sale (at the least) and most likely will end up clearanced out at the usual places (Target, Walmart, Ross). So you'll probably have an opportunity to army build for a lot less than the retail price and sell off the stuff you don't want for $10-$20 minimum, further reducing the cost to you.

Actually I didn't see the steel corps helmet so now I can buy multiples and just toss the Snake Eyes head into the fodder bin. I don't buy stuff on clearance or like to hunt anymore. If I go to a store now it is to buy necessary items. I will check the aisles but I don't go to stores anymore just for hunting the latest and greatest or looking for sales. If I want it bad enough then I will pay double if needed on ebay or Aliexpress.
