G.I. Joe Classified - News & Updates

The Wild Bill who comes with the Dragonfly is how I've always pictured Wild Bill. But I was with the 80s line and that's the Wild Bill I had. I don't think they've ever made a Sunbow Wild Bill figure, unless there was one in the 3.75" anniversary line. Certainly it's a possible repaint. I think if they re-release the Haslab one with slightly different deco, it'll make a lot of people happy. I can see a Sunbow Wild Bill happening at some point. Maybe in a 2pk with another Sunbow style figure, like Cover Girl. Or hell...Hasbro can finally make a horse and pack in Wild Bill with it. A Hasbro horse could get some reuse in Marvel Legends, although we haven't really seen reuse across their lines in quite some time.

I think a Tiger Fly is likely as a made-to-order re-release of the Dragonfly. Probably will go up for order at the end of the year. A Tiger Force repaint of Wild Bill would be good pack in.

If this was the older days without Lenny and Tony involved I would have said don't get your hopes up we are going to get the Locust beige repaint from 2000 instead.

Thankfully though Lenny and Tony are involved and I am sure we'll get a Tiger Fly repaint next year (3 year window).

I just wonder what is going on with the VAMP mold. It has been long enough now since the Stinger that we should see a repaint/remold being offered again. Question is which version of the VAMP are we going to see next. My preference would be for the Tiger Sting next, but I would be good with pretty much any variant from past years. Especially the Dreadnok variant.

Went to the Walmart with the Collector's Island and there must have been 20 Grim Vipers on the pegs. Really weird.

Lucky. I've been to multiple Walmarts in my area and none of them have any GI Joes, never mind Grim Vipers. I've never even seen a Grim Viper on shelves, and missed out on preorders.

I too am in need of a Wild Bill.

I think my second Classified purchase of the year better be Steeler/Short Fuze. Let's get that 82 roster locked in.

The increased cost of the hobby in general has helped me do a good job of saving recently. Now how do I keep that trend going and NOT load up on tons of that retro GI Joe trooper?


EDIT: I work fast when it comes to toys. I just went and POed Steeler/Short Fuze from BBTS. $55 from them, $63 from Pulse.....Hasbro's own site. Seems legit.
