G.I. Joe Classified Series

Actually, I have another one! I got a NF Shockwave to do a quick and not accurate Ghost from Modern Warfare. He's from the UK (somewhere in England I'm sure) but I fudged it some to be from Northern Ireland.

That image is of the figure but I photoshopped the skull because I have yet to get the paint for it.
Oh crap, I like that! Now I need to get one of that figure! 😅

EDIT: Woof, he is not cheap, lol... 😰
 
he is not cheap
Correct, but he has been a few times in the last six months if you wanna try holding out. Obviously not a guarantee but could happen again. I think I got him for $36, then sold the bike off so he ended up costing me something like $24 or something.

Also, just remembered I borrowed a lot of birthplaces from the Action Force versions. Scarlett was born in Bruges, Belgium that way. And Lady Jaye was born in Cork, heh heh. Now I'm realizing my Joes are kinda Éire heavy.
 
Add me to the list of guy that would play Snake Eyes with a sword vs. every Cobra I had at the time. That was when I was just doing figure fights though. Usually my battles involved lining up all vehicles and an HQ on each side and blowing shit up.
 
So they just released their third Cold Slither single today, Thunder Machine. Makes me wonder if we’ll be seeing that vehicle tomorrow now. The full album comes out in July and they’ll have the band performing at SDCC. They’re going all out for this! I’ve actually liked the songs they’ve put out so far.
In my wildest dreams, I'd never have thought one of my favorite toy lines in the 80s and one of my favorite bands in the 90's (KMFDM) would EVER intersect in any fashion. But 2025 is just all kinds of crazy.
 
Bleh. I wanted to check out the Viper before ordering another but Amazon's shipping has been ass. I know some people got theirs last week, mine was delayed three times and it's still not out for delivery yet. Meanwhile Amazon jacked their price up to $31.99, greedy fucks. Feelin' pretty salty about this!

Guys, I love this thread so much.

Being a Joe fan used to be some lonely shit, because the vast preponderance of organized Joe fan groups tended to skew to the absolutely horrible from a sociopolitical perspective. I always thought that was bananas since the Joes always felt hella inclusive *to me anyway* as a little kid (like trust, my first non-white action figures were definitely Lando Calrissian and then a bunch of different Joes), but . . . well, I found out when I was older that a lot of folks got VERY different messages than I did, and not just about G.I. Joe.

But not in THIS thread, suckas! This is definitely the place for a sword-fightin’, queer, globalist Joe team, and I am HERE. FOR. THAT.
 
I always took Joe as being international because after being in the military for 21 years, aint no way the US gov is paying for all that cool stuff outta the DoD budget. The cost to build, operate and maintain just 1 Skyhawk would be astronomical, let alone a small fleet of those. Remember, those things so to be so hi-tech and user friendly that any random Joe could fly one with no problem. And I think the support crew alone to keep an operation like Joe running is crazy. I look from my previous experience as an Air Force guy, for every one pilot and fighter plane, you can have anywhere from 20 to 50 personnel involved getting that thing in the air, than all the support people who support those people, staggering.
