G.I. Joe Classified Series

Man, curse my desire for vintage accuracy.

I popped the arms off my Cold Slither Ripper to take off the tattoos. And while I was wiping them off, noticed that the musculature on his bicep was funny. Turns out I got a Ripper with two right arms. The hands are fine, but bicep and forearm are both right. Something I never in a million years would’ve noticed if I hadn’t taken them apart.

Ew! If you tell Pulse I wonder if they'll replace him, or just send you some other thing they have on hand.

Crystal Ball was what, last year's collector con figure? I keep checking to see if it's been canceled or not and I swear I'm not entirely convinced the order exists in Walmart's universe. What a shitshow that was - of the five collector con figures I ordered including Crystal ball, I had one MOTU figure canceled, one delivered, one Star Wars figure actually showed up on time, and I still have an open Spider-Man 77 order that I'm pretty sure everyone else had canceled? I should just start looking for CB anywhere else. Walmart: when they hate their customers and don't even pretend to feel otherwise.

Hey! Lifetime lurker/refugee lurker from the Fwoosh forums/actual participant on the OAFE forum circa 1860. I just had my Crystal Ball canceled by Walmart- anybody out there live near one that still has a few hanging around?
Edit: Good God did I choose a weird time to join in...

I can check mine again tomorrow and see. There were a few more left there yesterday.

I would be so wildly grateful. For some reason I got super fixated on Crystal Ball, but maybe probably not Ebay scalper price fixated. Woof.

Nothing wrong with being fixated on Classified Crystal Ball. He is a banging figure and a great update.

Speaking of banging....

I wish there was a GI Joe with 2 penises called "Double Rotar" who was the pilot of a CH-47.

Of course, with two penises he should probably be part of the faction that has to do with snakes.

I would probably use the codename "Double Decker" just to be kid friendly when I know it should actually be "Double Dicker."

Sorry back to your regularly scheduled Joe talk....
 
I suppose I should ask while I'm brave enough, does anyone have both the ginger version of Outback and Snow Job? It's been on my mind to make a non-arctic SJ and I wanted to see if his head fits the body well and if the skin tones match at all.
 
Something something kung fu grip something something

Desperately staying on topic, I cannot believe how much fun the polar bear is. I mean, at this point, Hasbro, just do a line of animals. You're killing it. The D&D animals, the Joe animals, the Legends ones, give us an elephant with this level of articulation, throw us a hippo

I can probably get some pics to see if the skin tone matches for you tonight. Snow Job is in storage for the winter but I've got ginger Outback on my desk.
