G.I. Joe Classified - News & Updates

Entertainment Earth just changed their price to $69.99.
Hopefully they honor everyone who pre-ordered at $52.99. I kept the GameStop pre-order for $54.99. $2 more is not a big deal but the points I receive is what I wish to keep with the purchase.
 
I hit the hotel gym for 90 minutes and miss out on sub-$55 deals on the CoCo I preordered at full price BEFORE the gym? Dammit. (Although truth be told worth the 15 bucks while traveling to NOT try to perfectly time a buy for must have)

I was just saying we're due for a beige version of Clutch and was setting up the green version to get an O13 pic for @Ru1977 thinking "I hope they downgrade his gear so he looks more old-fashioned like the other O13." I... don' think they did that, but I guess he doesn't have all the tattoos, so he got Rock n Rolled? I do NOT need another vehicle, but... I'd be lying if I said I wasn't interested.

Action Man is objectively ridiculous and I will probably buy him on sale but not full price.

Grand Slam is not NEARLY ugly enough. Fuck that.
He AT LEAST needs male pattern baldness. I kinda wish they made him in silver so the inevitable Flash will stand out more, but for purists' sake, they DID get released in the same armor first so I'm cool with this. NOW BRING ON FLASH, MY BOY
 
Hey, anyone interested, GameStop listed the Cobra Commander for $54.99 so I grabbed two for the free shipping. Hopefully they will honor that price.
Thanks for the heads up. Ordered two here also, and hopefully can cancel the Pulse pair I POed.
 
You know a mate of mine just pointed out to me that all these sets are Deluxe and up; nothing cheap in here, which makes it an expensive bunch to preorder all at once. I hadnt really thought about it but he is right; even the name drops are deluxe sized. Its a curious choice in the economy we're in right now.
 
Yeah. I actually love that Lara is coming up, I just thought there was an official reason for that.

DUUUUUDDDDDDEEEEEE. This would make me so happy. I'm looking at my McF figs still on display right now, but articulated ones that still are in-style would be amazing!!!

Also, the Cobra Throne looks amazing - if anyone really doesn't want it, I just want it. :) I have the Retro CC so he can sit on it.

I'm in and out on this line and thought the stream was pretty good. I do NOT want them to switch to outside presenters instead of staff members full-time - I want to hear the inside baseball on the company's own stream (as little "real" information as they can share).

Bring on Lara Croft and a new Baroness!!
 
As with IG Destro, I've ordered CoCo but only after finding somewhere else offering him cheaper. I refuse to accept Pulse's obscene price gouging, especially with the exchange rate as it is right now.

Deep Six: Awesome, day one purchase.

Snake Eyes/Viper vehicle pack: I do love the 788 bubble but not enough for stump up for the whole package.

Ninja Scarlett and Whizzbang: As previously noted, the ninjas aren't my cup of Rosie Lee.

Fatal Fluffy: Pyramid of Darkness was the only episode of the cartoon I ever saw. It's a delightfully insane visual with the whip cracking and the flames spewing, though I'd rather have Snake and Shipwreck in their night club duds.

Shipwreck & Cadet: Know nothing about it. Am torn between wanting another Cobra lady but my brain shorts out at pulling the trigger on anything Crimson Guard related if it's not, y'know, CRIMSON.

Grand Slam & H.A.L: Gah, I want one but it'll be huge, plus I want Grand Slam silver not orange, boo. There's also the small matter of wanting a second HAL to make a Laser Exterminator for Red Laser...

Action Man: This particular incarnation is after my time but I'm certainly not opposed, he looks neat.

VAMP Mk II: The Best of the Jeeps! Though I really don't have room for another one...okay, one last time then.

Avalanche Response: Eh.

Dusty and Sandstorm: Eh.

The cynic in me says they did it this way on purpose.
 
I donno if I'm gonna PO Deep Six. At the moment, he won't fit in my display. I feel like he's one that could see a discount eventually. Gonna play the long game on that one.
