Its time for the next Joe!

[teemu]

we probably wont see anything till SDCC...so for our long wait...Duke and Destro (or Zartan,beachhead,firefly) better be there to pre-order!!

 

[Deeznutz6]

Im telling you, we are only going to see one figure at SDCC

 

[BuddyGus]

If I have to wait until SDCC then it better be Duke, Beachhead, or Flint.

 

[Sir Tristram]

Bring on the GI Joes PF's !!!!! OK I know I'm in the minority but I cant wait to have Some 1/4 scale Cobras here....

I'm with you! I want PF's more than 1/6th!

Then don't collect G.I. JOE. This is an action figure brand and has been for 40+ years.


Sideshow has been ridiculously slow with this damn line. They do sell very well so I have no idea what their problem is. Get off your asses, guys!!

And we will likely see only one new 1/6 JOE figure at SDCC. At least that is what they hinted at in the Fantacular chat.

Agree.

That is one of the things I didnt like about CCC, if they wanted special variant they should have just made it the Scarface trooper.

 

[IrishJedi]

Problem is, the regular Cobra Trooper hasn't shipped yet. But then, that's on Sideshow's too. Their Product Planning has always left a lot to be desired. A different Trooper would have made a much, much, MUCH better variant for JOE fans.

And watch "scarface" Trooper be the 1 new JOE figure unveiled at SDCC.

 

[EVILFACE]

That is who I think they will be offering. So I hope they show at least a Joe as well.

What exactly did they say to indicate there will only be one Joe figure announced at SDCC? Not that I'm doubting you. I remember being totally stoked to see several new figures last SDCC and all we got was Cobra Commander.

The bitter irony of this quote. Likely the "something big" will be the stupid PF they've been hinting about in the Q&A... 1:4 CCC!!!!!

 

[bran-chan]

GI Joe isn't LOTR because Joes actually sell out. When SSC actually puts them up for sale anyway.

This may be what saves the line. Sideshow will eventually deliver if we keep on ordering, lol.

I need to find the Chat transcript for the exact quote. Wasn't it posted?

 

[creature4000]

the real test will be how far they get in this line. If they only give us the main characters first...

CC
Destro
Baroness
Major Bludd
FF
SS
Zartan

Duke
Hawk
Scarlet
SE
Roadblock

then how many will stick around for the others (which I don't think they'll go too far into the non-main characters)

Chuckles
Mutt
Mainframe
Raptor
Crystal Ball
Night Viper
etc..........


I know I am in for at least 30 characters if they last that long.

Seriously at this pace, this line wont last past 10 figures. SS is wasting time on PF and walls. Get on with it, havent they learnt anything this past 5 years...

 

[Blu Falcon]

Word.

 

[Silent December]

^^ My inner geek trembles at the thought of all the kickass accessories that Firefly will come with.

 

[DeltaForceChung]

IF Firefly is the next GI JOE RAH/COBRA figure, I wonder if it'll come with two heads (i.e. Storm Shadow)? One with the molded blacava/mask and one unmasked?

I agree, the pace is too slow...they should be pumping these out like their Starwars line...the extra stuff (walls etc) is a waste because it just hogs up a joe/cobra slot...and with that bomb, Rise of Cobra coming out, you'd think Sideshow will show off 3 new figures for SDCC

To go Lonnie, he archives them all.
