Yep, I picked up one. Not a bad figure at all.

How rare is it? I can't even find any on ebay?

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

I wanted a carded one, but at $160+ I will have to wait a bit.

Well, moving on.... I walked into TRU today on a whim and they are having a 2 for 10.99 figure sale and I picked up a Pursuit of Cobra Duke and Jungle Viper just for kicks. Both are pretty decent figures I have to say. Here's some quick shots of Duke

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Got into the Jungle Viper and I gotta say, from a design standpoint, this figure kicks all kinds of ass! really fun figure to put together. See for yourself:

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Jungle-Viper is an amazing figure, one of my favorites.

The Dialtones from the club came in a white box, not on a card. The carded ones were Joecon exclusives I believe.

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

I saw it as well. Didn't realize it was no longer a two seater though. That sucks.

Yeah, when you consider that vintage GI Joe vehicles are undersized to begin with, the new Skystriker definitely looks a bit strange with one seat.

I'm actually fine with my vintage ones - I've got one dead mint original and another Funskool version. That's all I need, I think. I mean, I may pick this up at retail if I see it but I'm not scrambling to order it or anything.

lol, I didn't understand the figure's design until I saw your pics, I was like why does he have parrot feathers

It was all quite confusing when I wanted it originally, but then saw the prices for the carded one, and I was shocked. being a completist I have to get the dial tone...one day it will happen, but I am not too eager to drop that kinda cash on a figure that will sit in a pile with other carded figures until I find a place to display it.

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Here's the first subscription figure:

will ship along with NANO BAT in the same month

All the subscription figures will be on 25th ann. blister cards so I think I'm going to go ahead and subscribe when it becomes available.

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

if on a blister card, then I will have to order as well, not taking the chance of missing out again and having to pay mega bucks on ebay.

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Yeah, but still no idea what the price is going to be...

I must have that Quarrel, though. I'm a big international fan!

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

A couple of shots of my SDCC Zarana just received from Hasbro Toy Shop:

A fantastic figure that SHOULD NOT have been an exclusive IMO....

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Looks great, I still need to pick one up.

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

She's a fine choice for an exclusive, but they just needed to double the numbers for her. She sold out in less than 2 days. Hasbro always seems to shortchange the Joe exclusives.

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Bring on Zandar now!

Here here!

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Yeah, Zarana seems incomplete without her twin bro...

Should have my classic Zarana coming as well, pending trade negotiations. No real need for that other version (not a must-have, like last year's TTT Slaughter).

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Kid Sister's got to be one of Hasbro's best female figures ever. She definitely shouldn't have been an exclusive though.

Stil really looking forward to Airtight and Sci-Fi though. I loved those two as a kid.
