im really torn on those snake eyes movie figs
i really dont want to collect them, i didnt think the movie was anything special and quite frankly didnt like how they basically changed the entire existence of snake eyes so they could just be "PC"
but on the other hand, its part of the Classifieds line, so if I'm ever to call myself a completist....
although i had no intention of getting the re-deco duke/scarlett/roadblock so I guess in the end it doesnt matter

Anyways I don't consider the movie figures as part of the line. Don't need to collect what you don't like.

I know what you're saying, but I really like they way they made him look and that Storm Shadow to me is close to the Ninja Force and that is my favorite Joe figure ever. long backstory short, i was an early 90's Joe kid, and Ninja Force was right in my wheelhouse, that Storm Shadow just became my favorite figure and still is to this day, while he's carefully preserved in storage until I can display them all properly

Was able to order these through the Target app. Figured I’d pick them up to help fill out my Classified shelf until we get better versions.

A few months back I sold off my collection. 2 weeks ago I had a long talk with a friend and fellow collector about the classified line. I got sellers remorse and got right back into the Classified game! 2 weeks later this is what I have amassed via spamS, my friend who owns Omega Level Toys in Slidell LA, my friend Brad who was selling extra figs, and Targets app. Waiting on 4 more Vipers, Origins Snake Eyes and Hasbro Pulse Snake Eyes 00 are in the mail, my friend has the Amazon Roadblock for me, and of course Breaker and Barbecue are on preorder. Yo Joe!

Anyone have any interest in old G I Joe flag points? If not, I'm just going to toss them out.

^^ man that's taking it back in the day! Grumpyoldman - sadly you might have to toss it, not sure about the legalities Hasbro still has to honour those flag points after 40 years

this is seriously frustrating the hell out of me now.
I placed my Snake Eyes & Timber order exactly on 6/10/2021 - it STILL hasn't been fulfilled. Meanwhile I'm seeing these youtubers and instagramers all getting their stock and thanking Big Bad....like come on now.
I don't want to cancel it because I have store credit that will automatically be applied, so no point in me ordering it elsewhere. But what gives - it went up on June 10th, I ordered it June 10th probably within minutes, and they shaft me with stock. Makes no sense.

Croc Master was one of my favorites growing up. Can't wait to see how they pull that off. Now all we need is Big Boa, Dusty, and Tunnel Rat.

I was never a collector as a kid, so I didn't fuss with filecards or worry about keeping up with accessories. Not caring about those is making buying a little cheaper, but I can't bring myself to spend more than $10-12 each. Do you know how to fix a freon leak in a refrigerator? I'd like to learn more about freon leak fridges. There are YouTube tutorials that can help you with that. Please don't spam up the board.
