    This is the Snow Job I hoped for. Masked and unmasked heads. Skis and snowshoes. Perfect! Home run!

    Scrap Iron was just revealed, with a big-ass drone.

    That's a lot of accessories! Quite a number of blast effects, too. This is a hell of an upgrade from the old missile launcher.

    Okay, that looks really cool. No idea where I'm going to put that drone in my display, but I'll figure it out. Scrap Iron is kind of known for it after all.

    Looks rad as heck!!! Not sure it needed to be that over-the-top big, but hey, I'll take it. It would be cool if those effects plugged into the Haslab Hiss Tank.

    This could also double as a re-tool for the Pac-Rat missile launcher.

    Those blast effects will get spread around for my collection, and Scrap Iron will be enough to back up a HISS all on his own! Now he's going to need something to shoot at...

    That's not how you spell laser. Also, the original file-card said laser-guided, not lazer-guided, so they're not homaging an error.

    I dig what they're doing with Snow Job, but the constipated face is a bit much for me.

    Scrap Iron looks cool but the blast effects as value-enhancers aren't my scene, I would have preferred more gear for the figure and maybe some ancillary controls or something for the missile launcher.

    In a line of great figures, Scrap Iron tops them all. Amazing.

    Loving Snow Job, Scrap Iron looks fine. Never cared much for him back in the day. Probably pass on him since he'll be at least $45

    That looks amazing! What a great day for GI Joe.
    Love the weapons. Love the jetpacks. Love the helmets and alt heads... in for all of it.

    I want both! Gimme both versions of the Steel brigade/Corps now! I had the mailaway figure back in the day, and the new one with the modern-style body construction.
