I was just speculating that if the HasLab does turn out to be the Rattler, maybe we see another pilot figure with a different paint app. To echo some others, I’m anticipating $350 price tag. Hopefully we’re all wrong. |

It will be interesting to see if they keep the Haslab price point in the range where people can still consider to buy more than one. I've purchased two of each Classified Haslab so far (just 1 Skystriker) but if it's over $300, I'll be only getting one. Taxes and the exchange rate are killer.

Well for starters id make it so his damn missles would stay on the backpack and his helmet woud be more secure. Id also include an unarmored arm that could be switched out and an arm that looks more like his vintage arm so he could be displayed however folks would like him.

Morning crew, got a question.
We all universally love CI Bludd as it?s pretty much perfect figure. Head sculpt is top 5 as well. But his ratings as most of the classfied line are, are ratings for toys. Now As a collectible - what would you all change? We are talking a higher end fit, finish and concept. Better color scheme? More detail to his prosthetic? More major styled clothing?

I like the armadillo and opossum ideas for Road Pig's pet! I'm wondering if he might come with a pet wolverine? A nod to his Michigan roots and the wolverine being Michigan State's mascot.
Fun trivia, Road Pig's birthplace of Goblu was actually a fictional town that was intentionally put on Michigan road maps as an inside joke easter egg back in the late 1970s. Goblu being a reference to Michigan State's "Go Blue! motto. The funny thing is the fictitious town was actually in Ohio (not Michigan like Hasbro incorrectly put on his file card!) and was meant to be a taunt for OSU fans. The actual location for Goblu was west of Bono, Ohio and in the Toledo area close to the shores of Lake Erie. Anyways, I could see him being packed with a wolverine for that reason. Quote:

I agree with many that the CI Bludd was an absolutely fantastic figure, I keep him in the front of my display since the day I got him. HOWever...
I'd like a retro one as well. This doesn't mean that I don't like the first one, I just like the classic stylings of Major Bludd a little better. For example, MY ideal Bludd is Michael Golden's painting of him from the back of the GI Joe Yearbook #2 and his original figure's card art. He's got that more warm and contrasting brown that offsets the Black of the armor. His uniform is clear to see under the armor and his arm is more Blast Armor then cybernetic. I also of course think CI's gun was crap and needs fixed, but that seems to be on most peoples lists. Same with the backpack. But I actually don't love the helmet, would rather see a smoother style without the ridges. Anyway, I just think two versions could exist. |

I'd go for that. I avoided the CI stuff when it came out and now I can't find a Bludd at all, so...yeah...

My gut keeps telling me the next line of retros will in include Bludd. Can't see them not re-releasing him (although i was expecting a PP version of him before now). Definitely some money to be made my Hasbro to re-release him, Serpentor, and Mindbender on retro cards.
