I started collecting ME Joe's in 2009. I remember 2 different kinds of DG figures. I took this pic in 2012 at a DG when I was looking for the Basic Assortment ME figures:
I think these were at DG for a few years prior to the Basic Assortment release. This is a new sculpt figure mentioned above. These are more in size with the ARAH o-ring figures. The Basic Assortment figures (SE, Duke, CC, SS, CO, SW) are modern era figures. They are the same size as 25th figures as some of the DG figures (CC, SE, Duke) have 25th parts. SS, CO, and SW have POC/Ren/30th parts. These figures are the same size as 25th figures, but have more realistic sculpts and body proportions than the 25th figures. That's why most ME collectors prefer them over 25th figures. I'm not sure what you are referring to, as far as the DG figures are smaller than 25th figures. Is there a new Joe action figure at DG on the pegs now? If so, post a pic.

No. I am talking about the only Dollar General wave of Paintball Snake Eyes, Shipwreck, Storm Shadow, the green/grey Duke/Grunt figures.
Jeezus people. I know what I am talking about. The Dollar General GI Joe figures such as Paintball Snake Eyes he's short in height the same height as the old G.I. Joe figures. And I was just comparing the height differences between that DG Snake Eyes figure next to the 25th Anniversary Destro figure I have. Destro and pretty much any of the 25th anniversary figures are bigger than the Dollar General figures. |

Destro and pretty much any of the 25th anniversary figures are bigger than the Dollar General figures. As for the wave with "Paintball" Snake-Eyes and company, the figures were all mash-ups using no newly made parts but pulling from figures released 2007-onward "25th Anniversary" style. Duke was basically Short Fuse with renamed while Storm Shadow actually pulled parts from the prior "Ultimate" version. And there were technically TWO waves of this line since every figure in it was repainted. And this stuff slipped out while Hasbro was trying to hype up the second live action movie. +-MWG-+ |

Ever wonder why old threads shouldn't be resurrected? This is why.
