Its time for the next Joe!

[thenammagazine]

Maybe the average price hovers around $135 like it is for CG and the RnR...or maybe it bumps up to $140-$150...

Would an increase in pricing change anyone's request for figures? Top tier characters like Destro and Scarlett are must haves, but what about lower tier characters? Will price increases drive lower tier characters out of the line?

But they've already shown that padding a release with accessories like Mattel quality animals with extra yawning heads and the like, have some people justifying the price. Can't wait for a Shipwreck with $200 mark-up for a fully articulated Poly and the gay high-fives that ensue.

 

[BuddyGus]

At $200 Shipwreck better come with a fully articulated Orca!

 

[Darth Aidan]

Tunnel rat, major blood, snow job, scrap iron are high on my list

 

[ProgMatinee]

I can see paying $140-150 for Snow Job, but Tunnel Rat and Major Blood no way. Scrap Iron maybe with a nice rocket launcher.

 

[DPrime]

Hmm essential Joes at this point:

Shipwreck
Gung Ho
Roadblock
Maybe Tunnel Rat

Cobras:

Destro
Baroness
Maybe Mindbender (this would be really interesting to see)
Maybe Major Bludd

And any of the class of '82/'83 would be most welcome at this point... oh, who am I kidding, '84-'86 as well.

Was never a TR fan. Guess people like him cause he is based on Hama.

Bludd is a must as is Scrap Iron.

 

[spazzy]

Bludd would be awesome!
I couldn't care if they did Tunnel Rat, but will buy if they do. I really want Croc Master

I liked TR as a kid for his speciality. Now I like him because he reminds me of lemmiwinks.

 

[Darth Aidan]

Bludd would be great! Zarana will come now that zartan is out..

Shockwave
Blowtorch
B.A.T
Lady jay

 

[ProgMatinee]

So would you guys pay the new base level pricing for those characters? Lady Jaye at $150? I don't think SSC is satisfied selling simpler characters for $100 anymore.

At 150..snowjob, sci-fi, snow serpent, zarana,

While I don't like it.I would easily pay $150+ for

Snowjob
Destro
Mutt with Junkyard
Major Bludd
Cobra Commander helmeted
Spirit
Gung-ho
Snow Serpent
B.A.T
Lowlight
Quick Kick
Roadblock

Too bad by the time these come out,I'll be turning 60 and likely done collecting

 

[Deeznutz6]

Once again, everything will essentially be shipped with nothing in the pipe,
CG and SE2 remaining

 

[EVILFACE]

Wouldn't that mean SE2 and CG are in the pipe . . .

 

[YT74]

[steve74]

I'm still holding out hope for Low-Light.

3 items in the pipe is probably optimal for me, with a nice even space between them all. 4 seems like too many for me at the current price point. I bet by the time we receive Black Ninja and Zartan there will 1 more in the queue.

 

[SideshoMel]

Just give me an updated version of Grunt from the first series for $50 and I'll be happy.

 

[thenammagazine]

When did Prog make an alt?


At this point, honestly, I'm not sure I'd drop over $120 for a female figure on an unproven body. The issues with Indy and Snake Eyes were easily excused at their respective pricepoints, but with where Sideshow's headed with these new, ridiculous prices, loose, floppy bodies are absolutely unacceptable.

 

[ProgMatinee]

That first female fig will be scary.
