Yeah, I kinda don't like how EVERYTHING is a two pack now though. This is clearly a strategy change with Hasbro and I'm not so sure that I like it nor that it's a good idea. Like they don't think anyone would buy bushwhacker so pair him with Punisher. IDK....

This is exactly what they said about the CLAW slide at the end of the stream yesterday for us to play detective:


EMILY: While we're here, we'll just leave you with...kind of a cryptic tease at the end, for us?

LENNY: Yes.

TONY: Yeah

EMILY: So interpret this mysterious image as you will I guess...

LENNY: Yeah.

Tony: I know what it is!

EMILY: I mean, WE know what it is. We're working on it.

TONY: lol Oh well yeah! I thought you were asking Me. Sorry. Like I already know what it is lol

LENNY: You probably should know what it is! I mean...

TONY: Oh yeah.

LENNY: ...it would be a problem if you didn't lol


Honestly, it could be quite a few things.

A v2 Retro Snake Eyes would be one of the least surprising things they could do with that subline anyway. If they like money, it's going to happen.

oh, definitely agree there... but at least Crystal was a need, and not like ANOTHER Black Bolt. I will be stuck with Dr Strange to get Wong though. (not Bushwhacker... gross!)

I'm just impressed with how strong this brand is and how much GREAT product they're getting out the door. Really impressive.

Getting STARDUSTER for sure; love that alt helmet paint scheme.

Ya, its horseshit if we are being honest. They are hostage packs. I?ve got Aunt May, Mary Jane, and Spinnerette or whoever all rotting in a drawer because they paired with figures I had to have. Same with Dum Dum and Sharon Carter, although I imagine I could sell those. It?s incredibly frustrating.

Its more of an issue for Legends for me than it is Classified since there are very few Joe characters I dont want.

I don't understand why they haven't done any crossover HasLabs. Imagine a Classified-scale MOBAT that transforms into Megatron. Or some kind of ninja playset that comes with both Arashikage and Hand branding. It seems to me like potentially doubling your buyer pool is a no-brainer. I don't collect Marvel Legends, but if they did some sort of GI Joe-branded Howling Commandos project, I'd buy it for sure.

Is there a possibility that the tease image was supposed to be of the bear claws like at the live panel? And that the, erm, CLAW claw image was put up mistakenly? Yeah there is obviously some stuff going on in the CLAW image as well, but... just a thought.

Same here. In retrospect I wish I renewed towards the end of the Rattler campaign to give me an extra month.

If they took their Light Cruiser Halway & retooled the door pieces to make it look less “Star Warsy”, they’d have a pretty good start to a GI Joe HQ Command Center. But that’d require some 3-3/4 inch figures. I guess they could get out the Snake Eyes, Stalker & Cobra Troop & Officer molds…
