Those shots look amazing. You can see the difference in the sculpt and quality from one year to the next as well.

Frankly, at this point, I’ll buy everything they put out. It all looks good. I had to compact the walls again to make room lol.





Really difficult to keep myself from ripping them all open.

The Tele-Viper's red "WARNING INTRUDER" reflecting in his visor. The crimson guard getting slammed into the wall and his helmet makes a dent into the concrete. The excellent animation of the crimson guard getting wrapped into a mummy. There's so much care put into it.

I agree i remember watching it in the theater with another good friend and we were both blown away . First the intro and then pythona going ham what a sight it was animation overload . I miss the 80?s ..


Also i would take the HAL over the FLAK the hal is towable the flak is very cool and i had it back in the day but they could update the HAL and make it bad ass ..

Really good points! I always noticed the two mini-series also have much more detailed animation and some really cool sequences in them too. Obviously the budgets were much bigger for the mini-series and movie compared to the regular episodic series.

This reminds me of when I first got into Classified in the fall of '21. I had to play catch up and buy about 2 yrs worth of figures, but just had a big pile of carded figures accumulating for about 4 months. When I finally got around to opening them all up, it was like Xmas morning x1000! lol It was great! Kind of wish I could go back and have that feeling again, it was a real rush!

The only time I purposefully bought two figures was the Eel and he was the worst figure in the line that I bought last year. Going forward the only figure I could see myself owning two of is Desert Scorpion because I even have two of his original figure.

I think with the announcement of NE, golobulus might be the sdcc exclusive this year.

Also still waiting on the AWE striker.

This pair gets my vote for figure(s) of the year and it's only January!

If not SDCC, likely one of them, PulseCon, 10/27 (on a Sunday this year), etc. If they include the pod, I see him dropping at the Serpentor pricepoint.

I love Cobra-La and the weird and creepy alienesque vibe they have. All 4 would make great Classified figures. I guarantee a lot of people who don't care for Cobra-La will end up picking them up as Classified figures just because they are going to look so good on a shelf.

That is me. I hated Cobra-La, but they will make damn fine action figures. I will buy them (now that I am thinking about it, I will likely display them with my Monster Force stuff. Huh. I suddenly love this idea).
