Historically super7 con exclusives have been easy to get. First time that it's an o ring offering so we'll see

And one of them is a troop builder. I hope I get a shot at them. I had to resort to ebay for my PP BAT (who if offering to help folks out for cost again?)

I like those Serpentor colors though

I don't mind S7 focusing on the movie at all. It will feel more complete than a scattershot approach.

Agree 100%. They would be smart to do cold slither 4 set and focus on the movie characters for at least 12 characters

I was sad to hear S7 comments on QUARREL, where can I get her without paying an arm and leg for her.

but I was happy to hear the comment referencing Baron Ironblood and his Red Shadows

[firefly069]

They could easily do a movie style beachhead, tunnel rat along with chuckles. They can also do a destro and baroness in winter coats

Disappointing as I was hoping he would upgrade those to Reaction+ style.

I'm in the pool that says white is Chuckles. White cartoon shirt.
Then it's obvious S7 will continue with the rest of the Rawhides later.

.

oh if they are not O ring then Im not interested. I was hoping they were abandoning the stupid 5POA stuff

o ring Baron Iron blood would be a must buy purchase

[CobruhCommand3r]

If the white is Chuckles and the sports uniform is Big Lob I wonder who the other enemy figure would be. I would be interested in the Vipers with snow uniforms from the movie. Also it sounds like the Action Force stuff would be O-ring they're just choosing from figures that were 5poa in the past

[StalemateSB]

Yeah that's what they're saying, they would take figures that were originally 5poa and make o ring versions of them. Making them 5poa would just be recreating vintage figures which they have been very clear they would not do.

I like that they are trying to do different figures. The jinx and falcon were brilliant. I always loved the cartoon and comics so happy they are doing both. I loved gi joe as a kid like all of you but, I don?t care about the 40 year old figures. I am glad theres classified, and hiya, reaction, reaction+ and even ultimates are cool.

If they do a cold slither 4 pack with a window display to display MOC I am a buyer.

Anyway, I don?t know what?s right? Your opinion might be the right one, but if these are selling well should they change what they are doing?

I like that they are doing different color schemes to represent the comics/cartoons... but these figures are so "off" and they don't feel right. If they were going for a vintage toyline nostalgia, then why not make it feel vintage?

For me, they are missing the mark in pretty much every aspect... from packaging (with those needless giant bubbles), deco, but most of all the sculpting is bad.

Like this guy (A Punk With Toys) says in his review, they feel like knockoffs of real GiJoe toys.

I was super excited for this line, I grabbed doubles of all the first wave - but then I ended up returning them and I can't see myself getting more. They just aren't GiJoe.

I was super excited when Hasbro announced they were redoing O-Ring, which I have been waiting decades for.. but Hasbro didn't keep it faithful or really even try to make the line a success.

For me, the absolute BEST O-ring figure I have picked up since ARAH ended is the Skeletron O-ring figure. They hit EVERYTHING right, from the packaging to the figure. It feels exactly like an ARAH figure. Super7 is messing up by not doing this with Joes.
