Ok, yes, you do have a point. I just don't see why supply can't meet demand. I don't care if someone else buys 1 or 100 troopers, as long as I get the 50 I want. I just find it ludicrous that I am willing to spend $1000 and am being told that my limit is $40. I know not everyone wants 50 figures, but many would buy more than 2, and for a major retailer like Target and a major toy company like Hasbro, along with 2020 technology, there is no reason why I should not have the option to buy unlimited amounts. If nothing else Hasbro could skip the middle man and do preorders like Super 7 where the line is made to order. It's just frustrating.

I may be new here, but I'm pretty confident in saying that this "re-imagining" of the Crimson Guard is not going to go over very well on this forum.
On a positive note, Low-Light looks nice, though. But I feel like I've seen that same Mindbender somewhere before ... |

... I don't know about that crimson guard... Seriously, I just want a crimson guard that looks like the ones that we see in GI Joe the Movie, with a face mask that has a proportionately large mouth section, and proportionately wide face.
Maybe this is the Crimson Guard Immortal reimagining, in which case... I guess. I'll have to see it in person first. And low-light doesn't look pissed off, or stressed-out enough. I always thought he carried around a lot of baggage. Last edited by Chucez; 10-02-2020 at 03:05 AM.. |

Wait. Then what makes him "mysterious"? Maybe that "CG head on Immortal's body" has shown up before too, then. (I mean, not counting customs.) Although I'm not seeing it on yojoe.com. |

The images are placeholder images from various sources. But adding a placeholder may indicate a possible future figure. They just won't look like that.

Wow. Surprised more people haven't commented on this. I wonder if there was some sort of major breaking news or something ...
At any rate, I'm glad those aren't the actual classified versions. (Hopefully.) It's just not a Crimson Guard without the double-breasted jacket and aiguillettes, imo. Plus the face mask looks better in black. Dr. Mindbender requires a very delicate balance between generic nazi scientist and pro wrestling dentist (or whatever it was Hasbro was going for in 1986). Too far in either direction could create a colossal pegwarmer (even at 1 per case). |

LL is one of my favorite Joes so this is good news but I truly hope that they are not Target CI exclusives.
