GI JOE 30th Anniversary

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

is this a custom (on the right) or an official figure? looks amazing.

Yes it is a HASBRO CUSTOM. Same with the Big Boa behind it.

Since the '07 Joecon, Hasbro workers have done some of their own 25th Ann. customs and they've shown them off at the Cons.

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Great looking Airborne and Eels!

Geez I even like the Combat Heroes and Mighty Muggs figures.

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Airborne and Cobra Eel look awesome.

Mighty Mugs are kinda lame, too kiddish. Might get a CC one for the desk though. SS should have gave us a CC that looked like him . . ..

Eel definately looks tighter than the older 1980's version, sometimes it's just hard to beat the originals...

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Homage. I remember reading on a fan site awhile back that Hasbro would be inluding a figure called Trakker, which was an homage to Matt Trakker from MASK.

Check this out guys!

3 3/4'' Marvel superhero figures by Hasbro!!!
https://i.marvelousnews.com/g/index.php?mode=album&album=2008_SDCC%2FFury_Files%2F&dispsize=600&start=0

They look similar to Toy Biz's Superhero Showdown figures but probably better constructed. And they have articulation and joints similar to the 25th figures. I might definitely get a few to go with my Joes. Especially Spidey and Captain America!

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Just a quick heads up, Good Stuff to Go has the new 2 packs in stock. I ordered a few things from them today adn should have it by Friday. Here's the link: https://www.goodstufftogo.net/html/catalog1.asp?ID=38

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Just got my order from Good Stuff to Go. Sorry for no pics. I got:

Falcon vs Nemisis Enforcer
Tripwire vs Cobra Commander
Gen. Hawk
Barbeque

Falcon is pretty good, but he has the infamous Duke arms. His gun is pretty crappy.

Tripwire has been on of my personal favorites since I was a kid since he was the first I one I was given. This is a great update of the figure. The only thing that would have made this better would have been a removeable helmet. Barbeque and Hawk a pretty cool as well.

Now for the bad: Cobra Commander sucks. It is a repaint of a Crimson Guard body with the Hooded head. They were even so lazy that they left the holster on the left leg empty.

Nemesis Enforcer is actaully suprizing. While we can debate the whole Cobra-La fiasco another day, the sculpt is pretty good. The bat wings a little flimsy, but he looks fantastic.

Now I just have to find some Snow Serpents and maybe a few more B.A.Ts and I will be set.

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

I have question... Tonight I was at Target and I saw tons of GI's as to my exicitement you can imagine, well they were all stamped with this "From the comic book series" and "international series" what is this crap, it totally does not look as cool as the 25th Anniversary edition waves.... Someone clue me in, please!!!

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Thoes are the new cardbacks. The 25th Anniversary is over now its just Modern Real American Hero and in place of the 25th logo they will have a logo for what source the characer came from.

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Just came back from Target, The new DVD packs and the vehicle packs are out now. There was no Ram Cycle VS. Trouble Bubble. They did have one Vamp, and two Armadillo Tank Vs. Serpentor's Chariot packs.
The two DVD packs were even at two a piece. I picked up the Revenge of Cobra pack, great price; $20 for 3-4 figures, a piece of the Mass device, and a DVD, can't beat that!
And I finally got my favorite female character, Cartoon Lady Jaye!
The Destro in the pack looks amazing, much better then the single or 5-pack Destro.
Wish I had enough for the rest though.

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

Right on screamingmetal. I was at Target earlier tonight and saw the DVD packs too. Picked up MASS Device! I'm watching it right now and loving it! They had Revenge of Cobra but I'll probably pick that one up in a week or two.

Snake Eyes looked bizarre in that pack, his feet looked like they were irradiated. I don't exactly remember why he looked like that in the cartoon, could you refresh my memory?
Still it's a successfully weird trait of that figure.
I really wish I got the Mass Device pack as well, it'll have to wait.

That weird vine thing that's griping Roadblock in the Revenge of Cobra pack has a couple of holes so it can snap onto Roadblock's name tag base, very cool idea!
But I wished Roadblock came with more then just a knife.
The Lady Jaye figure's incredibly thin javelins can be removed from her backpack and snapped together to form a longer one piece Javelin! Very well designed accessory.

Re: GI JOE 25th Anniversary

He actually was irradiated in that episode
