Its time for the next Joe!

[Skiman]

These sucked but I'll take em...

1985 Shipwreck
1985 Tollbooth
1986 Claymore
1986 Cross Country
1986 Dial Tone
1986 Iceberg
1986 Leatherneck
1986 Lifeline
1986 Lift-Ticket
1986 Low-Light
1986 Mainframe
1986 Sci-Fi

Nah I like them but they aren't just my favs, 85-86 was sort of meh... for me with the exception of Quick Kick and Beachhead.

I know those years are a lot of ppl's fav's

Cobra-La, Serpentor, Sgt. Slaughter... some of you guys really like some ????-ass JOE characters.

In my experience, If you grew up on the cartoon only, you love those guys.

If you grew up on the comics, you hate those guys.

I'd never go out of my way to own them, but they're OK. The 25th Nemesis is well made, but he doesn't fit in with the I found my Sgt. Slaughter at Meijers while buying supplies for SDCC, so I picked him up.

Even though Slaughter and Cobra-La aren't favorites, I wouldn't mind Sideshow making 12 inch figures of those guys... provided that they are con exclusives, and don't count towards the 4-6 annual figures we get.

That would be a great idea. :chew

Nemesis would be expensive, though. All new tooling.

Slaughter would need a muscle body. Also, I think he sold WWE his toy likeness. Maybe they'd make an exception because SS is a "collectibles" company. That'd require Hasbro and Mattel to play nice.

Instead of a color-swap con exclusive, I wish Sideshow'd do a supporting character from the comics, like Kwinn, the Hard/Soft Master, Bongo/Candy, Dr. Appel, the harlequin that helped Stalker and Snow Job escape the gulag, Dr. Venom, or Scar Face.

I can't think of any supporting characters from the cartoon except Sparks, the Viper, and maybe Satin Doll.

Or a Cold Slither 4-pack. That'd be so corny, it'd be awesome.

Or the Ice Cream Soldier.

Kwinn 6'10 @ 260lbs FTW!!!!!!!!!!!

and I wish I had the Cold Slither mp3

Alright, seriously though guys, all this talk of these crappy aliens is gonna distract Sideshow from what we really need:

Zartan
Flint
Lady Jaye
Stalker
Snow Job
Crimson Guard
Destro
Eels
General Hawk
etc. etc.

Let us not lose sight of what's really important.

Notice the GENRE.... 3 3/4." If we're talking Sideshow, there are a whole mess of characters I expect to see before them.

They will come, sure enough...

I'd expect the next couple releases to be Joes.

If sideshow was smart, they'd sell the CG with a separate "Fred" head and a 3-piece suit. Same with Tomax and Xamot.

Scarlet...

They've already stated in a Q&A that they're thinking along those lines.

 

[BuddyGus]

Beachhead!! Let's not lose focus here people..

 

[FLOSI]

Beachhead!! Let's not lose focus here people..

I don't want Beachhead right now! Too much of the same stuff over and over.... Give me a couple standard Joes, say Flint, Snow Job or Stalker, then Zartan then give me Beachhead.... it's just too much of the masked characters all at the same time... Especially when you consider that Firefly was just announced and Shock Wave is supposedly in the works too... too much is too much.

[karamazov80]

No, please. Leave the monsters to the horror and Star Wars lines.

I really want Snowjob to be the next Joe

[FLOSI]

I'm not really wanting Gary the Voyeur as the next Joe, TBH.

The face on the card art reminds me of the CFO here at work.... He's good with numbers but I don't see him as part of an elite military team.
