G.I. Joe Classified Series

This has got to be the worst Classified pistol. This makes Chap Mei look like Gridiron Studios. Love that dog armor, gonna need some paint though.

Does the Men of Cobra calendar qualify as the weirdest thing we've planned on this forum?

Early days yet. I have faith in this crew to get weirder.

Also, I just opened Frag, Foot, Blow, Dark, Retro R&R, and Heavy Duty. The glorious ridiculousness of HD's gear really shines when you try to balance him on what amounts to really solid legs, but feels like toothpicks on him.

I've always thought those Sarge legs looked small. They're virtually identical to Outbacks'; the pockets stick out further, there's less wrinkles, and they're a couple mm longer. The boots are identical, I believe. But comparing Outback and Sarge's upper bodies, it's a night and day difference. So proportionally they are kind of small (if you consider Outback a perfect figure which I do lol)

I wish I bought more of those figures and vehicles when I had the chance at clearance. Going back to the Rock for a moment, I have a handful of boxes with his face on it and it kind of annoys me. He's fallen out of favor a bit with wrestling fans who follow the backstage happenings. He inserted himself into recent storylines, got his daughter an onscreen job, and his mother into the Hall of Fame as a promoter. Rock, get off my GI Joe packaging!

He was just OK in GI Joe. His Roadblock acting was the same as any other acting he's ever done in any other action movie. He is in my top two of all time favorite wrestlers along with the Hulkster (I haven't watched wrestling for 25 years, though so I have no idea what he's up to now). That's really the only reason I'd want a classified figure of him.

Jasis H Christ on a rubber crutch, but this is too goddamned brilliant! Seriously needs to happen, your funds be damned.

Joes with animal buddies are the absolute greatest. I always zeroed in on them as a kid. Classified figures who didn't USED to have an animal and do now (Road Pig) can now joint that club as well. I can't wait for Law and Order, I'll pay full price for them!

I always felt like I was getting a deal as a kid when a figure came with an animal sidekick or Stalker's kayak thingy.

Hasbro came to the same conclusion. But yah, I felt the same. No articulation but I loved when they'd include a pet. Croc Master was a big one.

Some of those 90's pack ins were great. The new Cobra Commander with the glider thing. Cobra Incinerators with the catapult. Undertow with the sled and barracuda (another to add to the GI Joe Animal Force).
 
That's how we'll always look at Freedom. Great pet before Hasbro decided they should be making more money off them. We were all a little disappointed when they raised MSRP to $22.99 for the Spirit wave, but ironically he was still maybe the best value at full price of the whole line.

If you were to ask me which pet is my favorite, I'd really struggle between grey Timber and Fiona. Giving Fiona a real metal chain leash puts her over the top, but Timber is also kinda perfect.
 
So does this hypothetical "Animal Force" come with animal gear? Like a tactical vest for Duchess so Duke has extra ammo? Flints Doberman Steel has a mini grenade launcher on his back? Recondo's Cleaver Girl has body armor that he can wear? Dr. Mindbender's goat has a small sattelite dish on it's head because why not?
