GameStop has had them in person that I have seen. Not personally but have seen people say found them at Target.

My long term suggestion with regard to female figures (which works some of the time but maybe not all the time) is to have the later version of a character be the one that is "reinterpreted" into the female version.
For example Iceberg's later version would make a good female Gi Joe generic Snow trooper base, or the Version 2 Snow Serpent similarly would work pretty well as a lady. Maybe that would work for the rather outlandish later re-designs of Viper Infantry too.

I can't see them NOT making Female Crimson Guards at some point they can easily repaint/rejig one into a female Twilight Guard (to better complement / contrast with the Steel Corp pair) or Cadet Denning.

We know making the same design on more than one body type works as we can see that with the Hiss Driver / Hiss Engineer and the Stinger Driver / ATV Scout and the Valkeries/Cobra Troopers.

I also think we are likely to get several female divers (longer term) I don't hold out a huge amount of hope for say a female Eel or Hydro-Viper but the Cobra Frogman (that isn't an eal) I can see being feminised as it would be an easy reuse as the basis of Wetsuit Baroness and Undertow Officer.

Female Alley Vipers.. I think might be something that would require an entire redesign.. maybe as a new design that hybrises aspects of a Night Viper and Alley Viper as the door kicking aspect of Alley Vipers isn't suitable.. but as a support sniper, or vehicle driver that would be fine.. even a nice idea. Perhaps the Version One Alley Viper Officer (Rage Driver) would be appropriate to be feminised should they make a Rage.

Rock viper females again would be good for the over-watch role.
Female Night Vipers would likely work decently well.
I don't think a Female Desert Scorpion would work.

I would also add a new design Female ninja (even if it is just a black version of Jinx with covered up skin) and Female Tele-Viper and Techno-Viper but I would "slightly" change the Techno-Vipers gear make her a electronic & light weapons repair specialist instead of a heavy engineering specialist

I think Hasbro likely thinks they are covering the female green shirt angle with the Marine Sniper and the Female Steel Corp.

I think they'd have a nice idea for a two pack though if they did a slight re-jig of Grunt or based something on some comic designs.

But in the meantime a female Steel Corp head on a Marine Sniper might have to be the make do solution for that.

I suppose longer term they might use the female form diver (when they eventually get to that) to also make a Diver Scarlet too.

I was just thinking if it is the case that some later ARAH or other era figures were originally designed to be something else and then re-purposed.
would it be possible to "go back" and fix that in Classified.

Or what about when a character looks like they belong in a team but were not listed as being in that team ; such as Version 5 Roadblock looking very Sgt. Slaughter's Marauders for example. Or a few things out there looking rather "Mission Brazil" like that were not listed as such.

I wonder if we will have to wait until well into 2026 or beyond to see a Tiger Force Tunnel Rat figure made ?

Tell me when this gets annoying...

You can dominate this forum with Beach Head and it'll never get annoying. Wayne Sneeden for the win.

This is fan channel. Others are exclusive to SDCC and Pulse. I think they are dropping at different times.

My biggest outside dream for a Classified figure is them doing a v3 BAT with a more feminine shape, since that original v3 figure has a more sleek, elegant look to it that the previous BAT designs.

I did just this - started about a month ago. Its absolutely fun and addicting, but man, have prices risen substantially over the past few years. I had sold my entire collection years back and regretted it for years. Figured I'd work on a complete set...

That beachhead is a 12 out of 10. Great shots too. You should work for hasbro.

I'd like to hear more about this. This was a fun time to collect.
