Done. I'm done. The MASS device Duke, just in better colors. Jetpack harness and no jetpack. 2nd rerelease of this figure, when the only thing I wanted out of the original pack was the MASS piece.
At least Lady Jaye looks better than the 50th. |

Incoming head swap for Duke!
Please tell me that’s not a 25th torso.

https://www.walmart.com/ip/GIJ-RETRO...5-f8e8b77dfad9 https://www.walmart.com/ip/GIJ-RETRO...f-75e90aebbdd4 pre orders are live for the code names like dung beetle and such. I'm thinking I'll wait until 1pm though. Not sure if they just cancel these, but I did get alerts when they went live. Bummed there was no talk of a vehicle either. And ship date on the pre-orders...May 4th :(

Just looked at the pre-order pages and then closed them without buying.
I think I'm done. It's a shame that Hasbro's bean counters don't realize that this line has the potential to be as strong as Star Wars TVC if they took the same approach: invest the money and make definitive versions. |

I’d like a newly sculpted torso for Duke, but a straight DATD Flint build is acceptable.
I’m gonna have to disagree on the classified head though. I’ve thought this from the beginning, but after handling the one my son got to go with his marvel legends I’m now certain... That sculpt is excellent, but it’s not “Duke: competent military commander”, its “Brett: arrogant jock douchebag”. Just use the 30th/50th sculpt Hasbro. |

I’m not one to be super negative.... but what the actual fuck? 25th Duke and 25th CC?
FUCK YOU, HASBRO. They could have hit this out of the park with minimal effort, but they decided zero effort was better. See above expletive and repeat ad infinitum.

I was expecting repacks for the Retros. Honestly I was just happy there were no more Target exclusives. That made my day.

I'm hoping they are reusing designs (love them or hate them whatever) as a way to get more money for the line so we can start to get new figures. It's time to start seeing characters of GI Joe beyond the early 80s. I'm not opposed to 80s Joes (I mean I do have a ton of them) but I would like to see updates to some 90s neon fun.
