G.I. Joe Classified Series

[PantherCult]

I kind of want Night Force Quick Kick, but I don't want NF Beachhead.....

Well cross your fingers it hits discount like the Falcon/Quarrel set didand wait, or buy the set and sell off the Beachhead. I'm sure he won't be too hard to unload.

Christmas-themed Joes would actually kind of be cool. Hasbro's been making Star Wars ones, and the SW team (and Lucasfilm) seem a lot less fun than the Joe team. Maybe Hasbro figures the Joe fans won't support holiday Joes, since some Joe fans are insufferably inflexible with their tastes.

Star Wars can have Christmas. Joes get 4th of July obviously!

I feel like every day is fourth of July for them though...

NF Beachhead and TF Dusty can hang out together in the "we don't know what clashing colors means" group for grown-ass army men who can't dress themselves.

In all seriousness, the two shades of green on Beachhead's upper body look so bad together. Aside from that, these two will look good with our Falcon/Quarrel sets, but not so much with the cooler-toned Wolfspider and crew. I prefer the colors on the latter group, I think they look fantastic. Maybe I'll give NF Beachhead some different webgear, I bet he'd look good with the kind that comes on Retro Trooper/Retro Snake Eyes.

Look how these nutter butters dress themselves. More like every day is Halloween.

Also used on Stalker if that makes it easier to get. The new green shirt seems to have a modified version too.

Order from Gen Hawk. He need you to be unique and express yourself.

First Look At The G.I. Joe Classified Haslab Snow Cat?!?

It's pretty much a given that the G.I. Joe Classified Haslab campaign for this year which is expected to launch next week will be for a G.I. Joe Snow Cat vehi

toynewsi.com

JKAHN7 is a pretty solid leaker so I am tempted to believe those pics are of the Snow Cat.

Has there ever been a Classified Haslab vehicle leaked by someone overseas before? I know the funding project images/listings have leaked early before, but I am not sure about this yet. Guess we'll know next week.

I kind of love the idea that Hawk has to keep bringing Snake Eyes into his office about this.
Like first day on the job SE shows up dressed in his finest Goth outfit, and Hawk is like 'no dude, we gotta zazz it up - this is fuckin' shooty shooty Halloween town!'
So SE comes back to work looking more Rivet Goth with his metal visor and pouches, and Hawk is all 'come on man. I said ZAZZ. It needs ZAZZ!' So SE comes back again in his finest CYBER Goth outfit with his silver goggles and fishnet vest, and Hawk is like 'you're killing me man. You're actually embarrassing me in front of Ice Cream Soldier.'
So SE comes back yet again with fuckin' orange goggles and a blue shirt with black pants and a grey vest - just total nonsense. And General Hawk is all 'fucking YES. YES KING. Bring that what-the-fuck energy every day.' So SE comes back later wearing an all black jumpsuit and Hawk just retires.

A lot of gold there, but this was the funniest part.

When ( and I definitely mean WHEN) Ice Cream Soldier comes out, he goes into the absolute forefront of my display.

Stoked for the Snow Cat... puzzling over what figures could be included.

I think Fr!ostbite is a given, it's his rig, they can't release it without him.

I'm hoping most of the dedicated 'snow Joes' (Blizzard, Snow Storm, Kwinn, Sub Zero, Avalanche - character not vehicle) get carded releases and the other pack ins will be 'generic snow trooper' and then like Arctic Stalker, or parka wearing Snake Eyes or... hear me out now... Blind Woodsman from the Arctic Rescue Vehicle. I know that was a Super7 special - but I can't see getting an official release of a sled and dog team... so how else are we going to get Blind Woodsman in our collections?

100% the flare thing is now Listen n Learn Tripwire happened.
"Listen, Skoog, the green and gray, you can do better. Have you considered orange and red?"

Literally one of my favorite figures.

I think Frostbite is very likely to be the only "exclusive character" here. In the sense that they could easily do off-color versions of the other characters so they can still promise people the 'main/v1' version sometime down the line as regular figures or Retro cards. Blizzard v2 was basically a different character altogether from Blizzard v1. Snow Storm v2 would be great (that's my favorite version). Sub-Zero v2 has that weird dark color scheme. I think Avalanche only has one version, though, so he's probably a no-go.

Perfect world, I'd like Frostbite, v2 Snow Storm, and v2 Blizzard and/or the Greenshirt in arctic colors.
