G.I. Joe Classified - News & Updates

Is the previous issue of the new GI Joe comic we had some DIRE tech stuff show up towards the end. In the issue that came out yesterday, we had a lot more of it, then there was this at the very end.

yeah the DIRE Tech in the Energon Joe books is interesting. i dont think its enough toget me to dive into the Dire Vipers and stuff, but I appreciate it in the comic itself, and Im glad I got CB.

Hey with "Rugged Duke" do the torso and arms look familiar to anyone else? I know we cant see the torso very well, so hard to tell there (Though i THINK its Commando Snake eyes...), but the arms dont ring any bells for me either. the slightly rolled up sleeves reminds me a little of Hit n Run but i dont think they're the same.
The more I look the more I dig the figure. I like he has a throat mike and earpiece, that is a cool touch.

At first I thought it was all a repaint of the Special Forces figure we just got. Looking at the arms, I feel they are all new. The torso could be reuse. The legs don't have enough detail for me to figure out if they are new or not.

Iceberg - I've been waiting for so long but saw the render and felt disappointed but couldn't put my finger on why...then realised it's the grey. His OG deco was a gorgeous icy fresh green and this just looks so drab in comparison. I'll still pick him up because I love the snow crew but it's a shame they changed it.

Yep, I was thinking the same thing. Love the RAH Iceberg as a kid (Him and Frostbite went on many adventures on the SnowCAT together) and the green accents really set him apart. Guess we can hope for a Retro release down the line somewhere :-/
 
Only halfway through the year, so it's not done yet! But lets take a look at what's left!

The vest is definitely the new Action Trooper. The torso with the neck looks kind of like the commando snake eyes neck. The arms im increasingly convinced are H&Rs....
 
Sorry for a sidetrack but did anyone see that the recent MASK blind bag comics had an unannounced ROM comic?

ROM is coming to Void Rivals and will be part of the Energon Universe!!

Glad I got the ML release so now he can slot in with Classified, etc. Especially once they start doing Energon figures. Sorry Rugged Duke doesn't count.
