G.I. Joe Classified Series

[AceofKnaves]

Probably a bit niche for most of you

Hi, welcome to the Classified thread, where “niche” does not apply!!
We are delightfully omnivorous in our consumption and desire for all things G.I. Joe.

Also: you forgot T.A.R.G.A.T.!!!!

Probably a bit niche for most of you but I'd love it if they go all in with the IGs. We've already got Darklon and Metal-Head but I'd love it if we get Voltar, Sergeant Major Duncan, General Mayhem, the Annihilators, the Undertows, and the Iron Anvils.

Voltar is actually one of my favorite figures. He's probably in, if not my top ten, at least my top fifteen. Along with Nullifier - possibly in my top 3 vehicle drivers.

I think there's a lot of Grenadier fans on these boards at least. I was just talking with someone not on the boards yesterday about how we're due for Voltar, and we need a retro IG trooper since the last one was a little too updated.

Damnit.

Now this makes total sense with your 88 love. I actually did like Voltar at the time because I saw him as a substitute for Major Bludd, whom I never ever owned but I will next month apparently.

I would probably go for Voltar yeah. IG Destro is a massive must right now, but yeah I really dug the IG in the 80s too because it was really cool that Destro broke off on his own and was really efficient, and I also enjoyed having a whole new enemy group for both sides to fight. Plus, the cobra civil war story was my favorite non-Snake Eye plot in the comics. And I know he didn't technically do a lot in the story, but that was kinda the point of him heh.

Anyone even know if it's possible to cancel a preorder on GameStop's website? I ordered Footloose and Law & Order from them, and am already covered. I'm checking my order status and see no option to cancel. I know I can return them in store, but I'll wind up eating a $14 shipping fee. So I'm trying to stop the order before it's too late!

I've always been able to cancel on their website if I ordered on their site. If it was in store I think I had to go in to do it.

Remember, there are a good chunk of folks here who are heavy advocates for a Hector Ramirez figure and Dr. Mindbender fashion calendar.

I still just want Kwinn and Dr. Venom, is that so wrong?

 

[Ru1977]

Not at all.

I was also looking at the resolute Cobra Troopers and thinking something like that but with a red mask could be cool for Scar-Face, since I'd like him more distinct from the regular Cobra troops.

 

[TENIME]

So...does anyone here only want Night Force Beach Head?

I just noticed that Quick Kick' base body under the gear is PERFECT for my Richard B. Riddick custom idea, I'd just need a clean shaven bald head that matches the skin tone.

I stand by the belief that Kwinn has been done dirty by Hasbro since the very beginning and deserves an epic Classified version of him to make up for it. (And would 10/10 buy Dr. Venom. And Hector Ramirez.)

Not sure it's niche, but I'm all in on any and all Iron Grenadier faction stuff. I always loved the separate factions within ARAH and they went above and beyond in designing the IG figures and most of the vehicles. A much better job than Battle Force 2000 — with the exception of Dodger.

I think I would classify niche stuff as GI Joe Extreme or Sgt. Savage. And I wouldn't be surprised if some of those designs pop up at some point.

 

[Ru1977]

@TENIME I... sorta only want Beach Head, but I told you I may not end up with this set. If they go on clearance and it's another round of chasing the ever-lowering night force set price, I will definitely let you know if you haven't scored one by then yet.

So we're passively working on a file card project for something to hand the hasbro guys at a con to copy what they did for Legends this year, but the calendar must be included in that. Really let them know what AT's Classified collectors are about.

So send them just a print-out of a bunch of dick jokes?
