Target does authorization holds repeatedly, from the time you preorder, until it ships. Expect them to keep popping up and dropping off, from now til January (or whenever it ships).
No prob. I think they used to do them almost weekly, until everyone complained (rightfully) and they toned it down.
Well Undertaker's American Badass gimmick was him trying to stay fresh and new and it work, but yeah I dig that Lord of Darkness or whatever Untertaker, in which he did drop the biker gimmick and revert back to the old school taker afterwards and until his retirement. And well I'm not a fan of Slaughter either, but he was part of that era at the time WWF was exciting and junk.
My current goal is six Troopers/Infantry (I already have three); three or four Vipers; and two Crimson Guard (they will flank CoCo). I don't really have any Alley Viper nostalgia, but I'll take a look at them if/when they are announced.
I don't have any Alley Viper nostalgia either, but they're basically the Cobra equivalent of a SWAT team and I love the shields. I wouldn't even mind it if they did the Classified Alley Vipers like they did in Resolute and have them all blue as opposed to the neon orange colors. However, given that they are on the back of the package in their orange tones, I expect the figures will be teh same when they do them.
Earlier this week, stopped at a target that popfindr listed as having two baronesses in stock, and since I’ve previously been surprised with neca items at this location, decided to take a shot. none on the floor, but a very helpful employee found one in the back. Made a few stops on the way home (ross, tjmaxx, dollar store) and gotta say that these $10-$12 fortnite figures and the ‘cheap’ 3.75” army figure packs with 6” scale weapons on plastic trees have really built out an armory for the current & forthcoming classified joes. But I didn’t expect these $1 bikes... With some me upcoming stay-cation time to do some painting and tinkering, time will tell if these can be used for some dreadnoks (or even if I’ll kitbash some noks until official ones are released).
Man, I just get filled with joy when Pimp Daddy Destro shows up at BBTS before I've even got my normal Destro...
I forgot where I read it, but someone had created a thing about the orange on the Alley Vipers actually being used as a distraction tactic or scare tactic. Basically it was that everyone is so focused on the Alley Vipers because of their bright colored uniforms that they don't notice the regular Cobra soldiers behind them.
Sure, I just started following him, so I’ll let you know. There’s also this: I know there are other Megatron options, but this scales perfectly.
I think most of them aside the Arctic ones are for the Classified line actually. There’s a large ARAH influence but there’s some simplicities evident on the Classified figures that can be seen on the video game designs. For example, Hawk’s jacket.
I wouldn't be surprised if we got the Arctic versions too. Arctic Storm Shadow ended up as an Amazon exclusive and I could see the same happening with future arctic designs from the game if they get released. On a related note, I decided to cancel my Arctic Storm Shadow and just wait for the one that's depicted on the back of the current boxes. Weird sleeve tattoo aside he has to end up better than the reviews I've read for Arctic Storm Shadow.
