Indeed, an acquaintance was saying he got the email notice as a Premium member at 9:20 when it went live at 9.

I never got an email. Some people get them, some don't. Some get certain emails and not others. No one knows why. The site is wacky.

People are saying the Tiger Paw hasn't gone up on Target in the US or Toys r us in Canada yet. Might be today, some are saying tomorrow.

I saw a Classified Chuckles. Is he like an SDCC thing?

Last years. He kinda hung around for a bit, so he wasn't exactly hard to get.

Aside from the Cobra Island releases most stuff isn't that uncommon or hard to find.

Exceptions being Dr. Mindbender, Serpentor and color changing Zartan.

Some folk are still waiting on their Dr. Mindbender orders that were managed to be pushed out at the end! Takes a year to make and they're probably finding extra time to do them so it's not a wonder it's taking forever.

A bunch of Joes showed up today and they're all lovely but I'm only displaying the OG 13 14 at the moment so here's Scarlett joining in (hopefully not too much longer before Grunt and Clutch show up too...)



Roll on Zap, Flash, Short Fuze, Grand Slam, and Steeler.

(Duke, Recondo, and Quick Kick are all awesome but I just ain't got the room currently, need to sort out some new shelves, gah)

Nice that you included Shooter. She deserves her spot.

Want to see the rest of the team get out there. Glenda is coming with Flash's weapon so we probably can expect him sooner than later.

Emily did confirm they got a tier list of who they wanted to create first. It's why some characters got put out and others have yet to be shown, sadly despite being some of the originals the guys you listed are less known than many other Joes. That's mainly the reason they've been kept away for now. Grand Slam should come with a jet pack range like the second or third version of him did. Give Zap the big artillery laser gun and Steeler, well, HASLAB Mobat tank anyone? Maybe a Pulse release. That has to be the plan for him.

It’s a good question as they always have supplemental releases for Haslabs, but not sure on this one. The versions of Ripcord and Crazylegs that come with it are Night Force so we’ll get the standard versions of them, would be nice if Ripcord was a deluxe that came with a parachute of some kind.

They always toss in a little extra with Haslabs that were not announced so a parachute or two might happen. I expect something, but it might be far less impressive.

I can see them adding a Ghost Hawk as part of the support addition for the Dragonfly for people to buy:


Two of those with a Dragonfly and you got a little attack wing.

And you know that they can do repaints for it as is tradition.

When the Baroness with Coil bike first came out it was ultra rare. So rare one guy paid three or four hundred for one!

Eventually they became common and now they go for normal prices or less.

It might be something I'm just telling myself, but in a way I'm glad I don't have to figure out where I'd personally display a Skystriker or Dragonfly and envy folks their space.

Space for Classified Joe fans is going to be an issue very quick.

Dragonfly is a long boi.

The Cobra Ferret and Tiger Paw are not what I call tiny.

The Stinger is a guarantee.

We got the Night Force Ram coming.

The next Haslab is bound to take up a good amount of space. The Rattler is still the favored choice to be revealed. Could be The Thunder Machine or Snow Cat, they were said to be store releases. We don't know for sure as plans change and they were on the list and shown to some as a potential Haslab. If we get all three at some point that's going to be a lot more space needed.

And that’s all we do know of, next year another Haslab and who knows what! I expect a breaking point for some on buying stuff simply due to the space needed and required.

The Skystriker, Proton Pack, and failed Rancor came out at the same time. Rancor and Skystriker were like a day apart from each other.

The Skystriker made the Rancor look like hot garbage, if I recall.

Those were the first days of the Haslab wasn't it, so it was a bit messy. They appear to try and give each, it's own time to shine now.

The Skystriker did struggle as we did have skystrikers in years not long past, and only two months ago the team admitted its houldn't have been an Haslab. Lessons learned and all that.

The Rancor failed due to people not getting the extras they wanted and that team actually seemingly somewhat combative with what the backers wanted. The whole Oola thing was a real cluster gently caress and angered backers into quitting. Some went and backed the Skystriker instead as it did appear they were trying to give fans they wanted. Like bonus Cobra Commander and troop figures etc.

Yup, more Joe name drops have been made.

What are they?

Cobra Commander! Yes, another one. No, not the 'Once Was a Man" version, could it be the one the Fred used to fake being CC? Non MM Cobra symbol regular CC?
Falcon! He's coming back, will he be ugly as before? No clue, but we're getting another version, money is on Night Force!

We're also getting something shiny. Sky Patrol? Vac metal CC or Destro mask? Super Trooper?

They could combine two things and give us "Fred" as armored Cobra Commander who was very shiny but I doubt they'd go that route.

We do risk running out of female Joes but I'd love to see Bombstrike down the line.

They might always do a vac metal version as an exclusive, kinda like they did do a color changing Zartan. We need more color changing Dreadnoks.

If they want to do the amored CC version, a deluxe version with altnative Battle helmet head, normal Fred head and CC disguise head would be pretty cool, it's what people want in regards to this version.

Quite a few women left in the Joes yet and Bombstrike is definitely one of them. People want her and are asking for her. Her being the "Power Girl" of the Joes makes her a favorite.

Lenny did the math on how big a Skystriker would be. Can you say five feet?

A Classified Flagg is 25 feet long for those who are wondering.
