if I hadn't dumped a couple hundred into the joe vs. cobra and venom vs. valor lines, I'd be all over these. as it is, I'd have to sell the old ones to justify buying these, and I honestly don't like the 25th asthetic as much. however I WILL be buying serpentor, since I don't have an updated one of him.
I'm selling off about 90% of that stuff soon as I have time. Keeping cool stuff like the VvV Vipers, but most of it's going out the door to make space for these even if I don't get much for it.
I'll be buying 2 of each of the single carded figures. One to open and one to place in a star case for my wall display!
Holy mackeral, these are the first packaging shots I've seen for the new JOES line and they are beautiful! I definately feel a "mint on card" moment coming, not for any accumalating value but because they look so damn good. I'm going to army-build the heck out of those COBRA TROOPERS, and does the prescence of a STINGER DRIVER mean we're getting the jeep at some point too? One moan: Doubles of SNAKE EYES and STORM SHADOW already.... I'd sooner see the rarer characters like ZAP and SHORT FUSE given another outing.
There's supposed to be two versions, so I am guessing the other version is the black normal version of that figure.
Its the Don't ask Don't tell Destro! G.I. JOE 25th ANNIVERSARY: SDDC DESTRO EXCLUSIVE http://www.hisstank.com/forum/showthread.php?t=334
Oh and Hasbro is allowing us to vote on what we want the mail-away figure to be. http://www.hasbro.com/gijoe/rah/default.cfm?page=25th It was a no brainer for me...Nemesis Enforcer!
Wonder if they'll offer him through HTS like they did w/ the Star Wars Stormtrooper and gold plated Titantium TIE fighter last year?
