They're here even earlier than expected.   I'm not crazy about the new Joe packaging, but the inner presentation seems better than the Marvel Legends way. In all honesty, their change to windowless has made it easy for me to go completely loose on the line. |

Received my blue ninjas today. Also picked up an Ultimate Mr. T so I can use the head and chains on my Cobra island Roadblock.

They said at the Hasbro pre-show thing today that the next two Joes to add on the list of upcoming characters are Hawk and Tripwire.
I'm guessing that the Hawk will be the V2 version (although I, being in the minority, prefer the V1 version that came with the MMS). Also Tripwire is one of my favorites, so I'm excited for that announcement!

Irish market has opened up in a big way today for Hasbro Pulse stuff. Looking forward to laying down some pre orders tomorrow or Sunday.

so more announced figures....and yet here we are, about 6 waves behind at retail/online sellers, snake-eyes movie figures melting pegs across the country, and if a store gets something new its one case of the storm shadow/spirit wave
the distribution on this line is one of the worst i've ever seen of any company/property
like, worse than Mattel WWE Retros

I'm looking forward to the reveals today. The wait times on this line are beyond absurd, but that all washes away pretty quickly once a new figure actually arrives. I had a ton of fun the other night opening the ninja 2-pack and just playing around with the accessories. Let's hope Papa Hasbro doesn't totally screw this line up for us.

Yeah the distribution on G.I. Joe classifieds is horrendous, I really wish they would speed up the process because it’s making me venture off into new things. Like Valaverse…… omg this line is just amazing. I have been collecting these more and more and I’m almost caught up on them. But I love my classified still, just these are filling my joy while I wait

I preordered everything that went up on Pulse just now. Serpentor, 2x Crimson BATs, Outback, Cover Girl, Barbecue, and Falcon. I'm gonna have to get a few more of those BATs when they go live other places.

Ordered a Serpentor. Might pick up a Cover Girl later, but nothing else from this wave. I'll probably end getting 4 out 5 from the next wave though.  *update - Just preordered a Cover Girl and Indiana Jones from Amazon. I have until April 2023 to decide if I really want Cover Girl  |

Missed Serepentor, but signed up for the email notification.
New names confirmed Snow Serpent probably going to need a bunch of these if it's based on the 85 look, Buzzer, Female Cobra Troopers.
Pre-ordering the 2 Indy figures and some of the new wave.

Falcon, Outback & Rock N Roll are the winners here for me. I doubt Ill ever be able to get Serpentor due to the nature of his release but ill sure as hell try. whats his pricetag?

Serpentor was 80.00. Stoked for regular Outback. Hoping for a Python Patrol Copperhead and Crimson Guard in the future got 3 out of the 6 already from the 80's subset. Slaughters Marauders was renamed Mad Marauders.

I was driving across Texas yesterday to take my daughters to a concert and missed the drop. I'm devastated. If any good brothers ordered an extra Serpentor and want to let him go for a fair price or trade, let me know. I'm praying for a restock.

Found a retro card Baroness today. Haven't seen any of them in any store and almost missed these cause they were up on the overstock shelf.

$80 for serpentor is literally highway robbery. these companies are really pushing the limits of decency at this point.
right now there's tons of gi joe fans/collectors with hundreds of dollars of "merchandise" in a virtual order expected to be delivered god knows when.
and they just keep taking pre-orders after pre-orders. the line ISNT THAT HOT ANYMORE. back when it first started everyone wanted pre orders because all the figures we wanted were selling out in seconds or being bought by scalpers in Target
the Snake-Eyes movie wave killed this line. As everyone predicted. Nobody wanted those sh*t figures and they are rotting on shelves in every retail store in america. but since Target hasn't updated their SKU number for Joe's, they haven't re-ordered anything because they are still showing thousands in stock. Walmart at least attempted to get something different with the croc master and storm shadow/spirit wave. but again, those are popular characters and sold out quickly. and they never clearanced out the snake-eyes wave so even those are still sitting
now all the figures we went nuts for are sitting in every online retailer for basically cost. and Hasbro is treating this line of toys like its pure gold. it's almost the end of 2022 and there's been 2 waves hitting stores, while we're on about wave 8 of pre-orders and multiple overpriced exclusives.
at the very beginning i really was excited to collect this line.....with the way everything has been handled, i've gone from needing to have everything, to cherry picking what i want and now just waiting until something actually shows up in a store or in stock on amazon before i decide if i want it.
