I am open to any new additions to both Joe and Cobra, every year in the 80's we were getting a brand new wave of newer characters and newer versions!

I think this stopped with the Walmart retro waves and has not yet been true for Classified until Wolf Spider. Here is hoping we get back on track. |

Agreed, Wedge! We got a lot of new figures year after year! Hope we keep getting new characters to add to the Classified line, Lenny was enthusiastic when talking about creating more!
Cheers! |

Here is a copy of the Interview for those that don't have Instagram, it is the first part of a two part series
Interview with G.I. Joe Classified Co-Creator and Lead Designer Lenny Panzica As co-creator of the G.I. Joe Classified series, how did it all start? It started in 2017 actually. We were reimagining the brand, so I had done maybe 9-10 designs of all the "main" Joe and Cobra characters. Each design ranged from Super Sci-fi to very classic, from the Jump we knew we wanted to update the tech and gear to line up with modern day movies and tech. Sometime after we had done the study, the decision was made to release a 1/12 scale Snake Eyes to celebrate the brand - So, with 00 Snake Eyes GIJOE Classified was born. First G.I. Joe figure? Hit & Run along with V2 Storm Shadow First G.I. Joe comic you read? G.I. Joe #1 First animated episode you watched? That was a long time ago, I'm sure it was something re-aired like the "Mass Device" mini-series, but I can distinctly remember watching "Primordial Plot" because as a Kid I loved dinosaurs and seeing Joes battle Dino's blew my mind. Also, the fact that Scarlett fed the dinosaurs MREs to misdirect them was wild! Who do you like better, G.I. Joe or Cobra? No comment If you were a character, who would you be? Oh boy lol I don't know. A lot of folks say I look like Bazooka What is your favorite thing about the brand? The gear and the archetypes. I feel what makes G.I. JOE such a cool toyline is the utility of each character. Every character is designed for a job and comes with gear and accessories to aid them in their mission. It also allows fans to interchange gear and come up with their own characters or put their favorite characters on specific missions. Does the Nemesis Immortal and Steel Corps Troopers name have anything to do with licensing? Yes Is it safe to assume you are already working on figure and vehicle releases for 2025? Yes If there is a chance to release every G.I. Joe character in Classified form, would you? Yes Do you have continued interest in creating newer heroes and enemies such as Wolf Spider and Mole Rats? Very Much Yes! It was my dream as a kid Thank you to Lenny Panzica and Hasbro! Now you know, and knowing is half the battle! Last edited by deathvalleymachine; 01-27-2024 at 10:14 AM.. |
