Okay that's a link to a pic, how do I figure out what that figure is other than Destro lol

 

The link says Destro23. Presumably that means v23. Just search Destro v23.

 

Yeah I'm googling, I'm not a Joe guy so releases and how they're identified is all nebulous to me.

 

Man, this head now makes the figure shine to me... We all should send an email to Super 7 customer service asking for new head's for Flint and Lady Jay in a booster pack for not delivering what we saw in the prototypes in the YouTube promotional video nor in the renders... I already sent them an email. ☕

 

Not the right color, but this one from Eagle Force looks about right if you toss a belt on one.

Take a look at the 25th Anniversary Cobra Commander figures...there are several different styles and shades of blue available.

Edit: The Resolute version could make for a nice stylized option:

I'll be watching this with interest!!

 

Oh man, less painting is always a good option!

Surprisingly no one has posted this yet.

From Hisstank: G.I. Joe Classified Shipwreck First In-Hand Images - HissTank.com

Shipwreck pics has surfaced from overseas, should be out in the States within a few months! Hit the link for more pics.

Note: Why is there a bike on top of the Submarine deck above waters? Isn't that allowed if your in the middle of open waters? I think the artist is just trying to make the background realistic as possible.

 

Thanks for sharing. The face printing and paint application looks good (unlike Falcon) so I’ll pick him up. No more Joe POs for me until I see the actually product then I’ll buy them from my import stores.

 

I saw that this morning on another site that had more pics of that, and the dude put the rope on upside-down without realizing it, because that's what the incorrect render showed.

Speaking of things that were not realized, I just now realized that the front of the box shows a render of the figure instead of the full art image, and it does look better for it. The whole wave has that.

 

Bazooka might be pushed back into the other wave when it gets released. Honestly it can happen, however things can change at any point in time.

Hmm.. Looks like that I might have to make a pre-order for Scrap Iron or find him in the wild up here in Canuckle Land.

 

I think the bike is a reference to one of the old cartoon PSA's that featured Shipwreck.

 

Come to papa!!  

Good catch!!!!

 

Nice! Shipwreck looks like he might be an all new sculpt. Can’t wait. He’s one of my favorites. Every time one of my favorites gets released, I start to think I’m getting closer to being wrapped up with this line…then it hits me just how many more favorites are left that I still want.

 

I found 2 more Crimson Guards, I really need to start opening them up.

 

I've started stopping in at odd Walmarts just to see if I can nab any more Crimson Guards as part of their "6 month late CG/Zarana/Dusty wave" that is tagged at $21.88 but often rings up a bit cheaper. I passed a pair last month and now regret it.
