Hi guys,
I haVe just received my first "modern" joes. After only seeing them on internet one arrived home tocay. My first decision is that Clasified (and 6" in general) are not for me. I got Snake Eyes and I think that the figure is awesome in details and accesories, but the size is too big for my view of a playable toys, with the idea of fighting groups of lots of joes, or creating some dioramas. I also got Snake Eyes and Cobra commander in 4" (retro collection?) and these I like much more. So mu next steps are in this 4" direction. Alley Viper (Retaliation) is the next I will look for.😊 |

Funny i still feel this way about these 6” figures. To big for my taste BUT I have them all for fear that one day I will wake up and wish I’d started collecting them in the beginning. I can always sell them but going back to buy them later would be way to expensive . FOMO I guess

I had no intention of getting into 6" figures, i have numerous Marvel Legends, but my first reaction to the classified line wasnt positive, plus them being nearly impossible to find didnt help my opinion of the line, but i eventually bought a couple, soon after, rumors started that the line was dead and wave one was it, so i sold them on ebay.
I am not sure exactly the moment i decided to give the line a second chance, but i did and now, im borderline addicted to the line, while i dont collect all the figures nor do i army build (2 trooper/viper/BAT limit), I have virtually all the figures now, minus a few (Serpentor, Dr. Mindbender, Snake eyes, Zartan, Zarana, PP BAT, Red Ninja, Kamakura, blue ninjas, virtually the entire movie wave), now the line is probably putting out the best figures Hasbro has, maybe any line from any company.

I cherry pick this line the same way other cherry pick that super7 stuff.
Most are medicore copy paste designs but some are absolutely stellar. It just sucks because most of the stellar ones aren?t my top Joes. Mindbender was never a favorite but Hasbro crushed it Serpentor was always one of the dumbest things they added to the Joe verse but again Hasbro killed it. Crimson Guard , I always thought he was cool but never a favorite. He should be up for figure of the year . Some Of my favorites they did fantastic with Spirit Major Bludd Destro Some of my favorite they shit the bed on Firefly Stalker Beachhead It?s a cool line but these will Never ever hold the value of the OG Orings, no matter if they use windowless packages, cardback or bubble.

Ive had no issues with quality, all the figures you mentioned that you said they $hit the bed on are actually pretty good figures, especially Stalker and Firefly, beach head is good, his weapons suck.
Time will tell as to how they hold up value wise, but based off other 6" lines none of which hold up at the moment including Marvel legends, but in 20 or 30 years that will be a different conversation.
