I wonder why they don’t take a page from Black Series’ book and create non-cylinder pegs. Would have more stability with the right depth and tightness.
I'm sure they'll just be relieved NOT to be spammed with complaints about scalpers claiming all the stock.
Based on their recent progress the event is sure to be another hit. I hope we see the next deluxe package and a sense of when the true Outback is coming.
Interesting talk about all the fiddlyness and loose parts. I noticed the same when playing my Classified Joes with my kids. We spent so much more time putting parts that kept falling off back on or trying to find them than we did actually playing that I always enjoyed being able to just get them back together and posed on a shelf more than actually playing with them. Kinda sucks.
Getting more excited about Croc Master. Funny that they re-printed Yearbook #4 last month where he gets his biggest spotlight of the Marvel run. Lolita and Tiffany? I can see Hasbro wanting to use "Fiona" rather than "Lolita" on their packaging. Only PO one set, but I found a 5-pack of extra crocs of various sizes to supplement Fiona. Kind of tough to create a "swamp" on a snowy January day with only 1 houseplant for scenery. All I need now is Croc Master himself.
Not sure if it's been posted, but i didn't realize the movie and non movie 6 inch classified share the same dcpi at target. Sucks...ran to a target when i had the guy check if another store had it, and saw a bunch of movie stuff...
Yeah, why wouldn't they? Classified handles their waves more like Black Series rather than how Legends gives each wave it's own assortment dpci (and even then things like the Spidey comic or X-Men comic waves will share the same assortment between different wave releases).
So how many are still waiting for bats to ship from pulse? 14 days later and nothing but still charged is a bit much. Think it's time to chat with cs saying ship my stuff or refund my money and take off the limit in case it ever comes back in stock.
This may be why the movie classifieds are so abundant at retail. Besides Hasbro thinking they would sell really well after a disasterously abysmal origin movie that rewrote one of the most popular characters in Joe history as a completely different person. I'm still waiting for the announcement of a new animated series with a better developed storyline based on the classified series figures lol.
True, never really thought about that since I only get ML and TF's from Target and nothing else... Yup, so now I'm actually glad they threw in GH with the BAT's and AV, so I at least know they hit and I just missed them...
I once said that the backpack pegs should have used the same design as wrist pegs with that slight bump on the peg and a notch in the hole on the back. In fact, the peg would be a tad longer and actually have two of those bumps. Distance between both bumps accounting for vest thickness. Figures with no vest: Backpack peg goes in all the way (two clicks) Figures with vest on: Backpack peg goes in to the first click. I really don't know why something like that wasn't done at launch seeing as now, it's probably too late to implement it. Oh well.
I found a lone B.A.T. at my Walmart today. Definitely happy to get one. This may be my favorite figure in the series, but I might be biased as it was always a favorite figure of mine from the original toy line.
Alley Viper's so good. So good that it made me laugh so you know a fig is good when it makes you laugh. I'm so glad they released this 'cause it was my favorite vintage figure growing up. In fact, it was the only figure that stood the test of time until I sold it in 2005. It was the only Joe I had as an adult.

Yeah, according to their website they're due next month, but I refuse to preorder with them. They have a bad habbit of charging yoy when something is supposed to be out omly to refund you a week later when they realize that they didn't actually get it in. GameStop still hasn't figured out that a toy release date isn't set in stone the way a game release date is.
I placed some preorders with them earlier this week. I hear you though. Fingers crossed. I can’t rely on BBTS. They just take too long. Sometimes GS pulls through.
