G.I. Joe Classified Series

So maybe this wave is now the three 86 fellas and Grim Viper, then the deluxe pet one... Night Viper is shifted back once again.
 
It's possible these guys were the reveals for that stream that didn't happen.

Originally the last wave was to be Snake Eyes v4, Sci Fi, Monkeywrench, and Night Viper. They switched two out obviously, pulling CC and Bludd from the wave with Wet Suit and another unnamed figure (which may be Flash?) and now its possible what was thought to be Night Viper is actually Grim Viper? Or Night Viper and the still unrevealed figure from that wave may have been pushed back to 2026 and the quick repaint of Grim Viper was subbed in?
 
My only bummer if that’s the next wave is that it is Joe-heavy, but I’m getting such wonderful Cobra blessings in the upcoming wave (along with my far-and-away favorite good guy) that I’m good with it. Also those are three cool Joes to get at once, all very different.
 
I always kinda hated Mainframe's weird hat/helmet, so that second head is most welcome. I'll probably see if I can't use the main un-helmeted head on another figure. A spare Grunt or something.
 
Y'know, he didn't make it into my top ten but Mainframe was ALWAYS on my teams as a kid playing with Joes. We need a computer guy! Warms my heart this monochromatic nerd made it into Classified. Instant, no-hesitation buy. And yes, he will NEVER wear that silly helmet. It always reminded me of a batting helmet for a switch hitter.
 
I was just saying that, Mainframe was never someone I thought to put on my list but... Kinda want him, and the hat head was a real smart move.
 
I came to EB to kick ass and buy F4 figures.

And I found a guy with bubblegum.

Really looking forward to a proper Breaker. The one that came with the bike is just generic army man with no equipment. This guy looks like a Joe.

He was my only tech/radio Joe as a kid so while he was not at the top of my list I am very happy we are getting him. My Joe team was Flint, Falcon, TF Roadblock, TF Lifeline, NF Crazylegs, Dusty and Mainframe. I had Hawk calling the shots at base and a TF Duke that would sometimes be at base and sometimes be on the team. That was my main troop. I had some other figures but they were not in any of the cartoons so they were the expendable ones. Lady Jaye was the figure I always wanted but never even saw and I had Shipwreck but gave him to my best friend in 1st grade when his family was basically deported back in the 80s. TF really helped me get some of the cartoon Joes that I really wanted but never had a chance for the original releases.

I wish I could remember my exact loadout for my go-to team too, but Mainframe and Lifeline were always on it because like you he was my only tech/radio guy and also Lifeline was my only medic for a long time (I did get Stretcher eventually to shake things up). I think my go-to's were Flint (TF because I lost the classic), Spearhead and Max, Crazylegs, Mainframe, Rampart (such a random dude but his design really stuck with me), and there was always a V2 or V3 Snake Eyes running interference for them. Throw in some random dudes to go with them, too.
