Its time for the next Joe!

[thenammagazine]

Random post, do you guys expect the new body to be released with regular frequency?

I need one for a figure that has the standard neck post, which other muscle bodies can't use and I'm not sure if I should just hold out for SSC to release more and get them from TA or MD, or make an absurd offer such as trading a TT Advance or TT Muscle for one. Cheapskate in me says to wait. I just haven't seen any figure announcements recently with this body so not really wanting to wait 12 months for 1.

Have you been sidetracked? TA broke down 4 just last week.

I don't check TA as often as you or Buttmunch apparently.

The bodies go quick, just the Viper gauntlets.

If you ever decide to go with an absurd offer, let me know.

 

[ProgMatinee]

my kidney for your Zartan body!

SOLD!!!!!

I might check it every other day. BM's like that "open, open, open" broad in the Mervyn's commercial hitting F5 every 20 seconds, "restock, restock, restock."

Buttmunch knows what's in stock better than TA does.

From a "minimum 500 yard distance," yes.

I just go when I need something. I have so many things from TA I'll never use.

 

[snakeeyes171]

every time i check right after sideshow releases a figure, all i can find is leftovers. either they go really quick or they break them down for a reason, keeping the bodies themselves.

I wanted a couple of the Zartan bodies myself, so I guess I got lucky as I don't check TA all that often. Checked a couple weeks ago and they had 6 bodies in stock so I promptly grabbed 2. After receiving them I wanted more, and thankfully some wonderful person here posted that MD broke down the tan, but they didn't have any bodies left. So I checked TA and they had 1 (as well as one with two right arms uhh no thanks), so yay.

 

[ProgMatinee]

how much was the latest price on Zartan bod? When I got one from MD it was like $12!

TA had them for 31.00

Yeah, me too. TA should have some "buy your crap back" program.

They sent me that one and I returned it.

 

[ProgMatinee]

I'm having a hard time conceptualizing what 2 right arms would look like. So the bicep and forearm were backwards? Would it be all that noticeable under a Duke type shirt? I wouldn't pay full price for it either, but maybe $10 I'd put up with it.

 

[Spencio!]

Yeah I think the Zartan body was like 32 and they wanted 28(!!!) for the same armed one.

Anybody else checking the boards everyday wondering when/who the next Joe will be? It's painful enough knowing that it will likely be after the September release of SE, and no news on an SDCC showing has me thinking that the rumors where false. I may need to build some armies to pass the time. Which reminds me, I still have'nt opened up my stalker, I can relax again, he's there if I really need to open one up... (saving him for a crisis)

What rumors? other than what Sideshow has told us just recently.Their Focus is on Destro,Roadblock,Baroness,and a helmeted CC

We know Baroness is going to be revealed Mid year (likely SDCC)

Destro was scheduled late 2011/early 2012 (likely to be revealed at SDCC or sooner,Rumor has it that Destro is ready)

They recently said that a new CC is in development

Roadblock was a new name just mentioned in their recent focus,probably bumped up because of the New GI Joe Movie (maybe we'll see him at SDCC)

The 2 heavily rumored figures scheduled to show up this year are Snowjob and Snow Serpent (Snow Job is in development)

Gung-ho and Shipwreck are Sideshow favorites...(unless Mutt was one too)

So I'd expect to see all these in the next two years

Thanks for the breakdown Teemu. I'm going to copy and paste your reply to my desktop now, at least until I have some photos to look at.
