I?m one of those people. While I thought the ghosts episode was silly it didn?t feel like a huge leap but Cobra La was. My gut reaction is that it was too weird of a fantasy inject.

The thing that killed me was when CC turned into a snake. I could chalk up the movie as just another wacky adventure in my brain but I couldn?t square CC turning into a snake as that had lasting impacts moving forward. I didn?t know how it would change the comics, which I loved.

As an adult, it doesn?t matter so much anymore but I still have a strong reaction when I hear GI Joe the Movie.

See, that's the thing. I'm of the opinion, we don't get the sell outs we do without the trashers buying it, too. Otherwise, with all that talk, he would've warmed like the Crimson 3-pack, vs. selling out in the first 5min of Premium.

Youre not lying legends is on fire and rekindled my interest in them all of the bafs have been absolute bangers .. lol is right on the bastards they are is seasoned collectors have been begging for scraps for decades and now all the fresh shit pops up .. ugh

Ohhhh........PYTHONA is in the house! Hope she gets an early release. We need more non-generic Cobra females.. Munitia, Raven, Zanya, Pale Peony, Dr Biggles Jones, Crimson Asp, Retro Vypra, Leila etc...

Cobra La will sell. I guarentee it.

Especially Pythona. You hear that Hasbro? Make her, she'll sell Especially to me who will buy a couple cases just to make them sell!

Simply supply and demand. Or at least 'perceived' supply and 'perceived' demand.

It was a happy accident for Hasbro.

I intentionally didn't say "hit." Although I guess that could also be argued. My point was that with all the people claiming this was an "easy pass" and how much they hate Cobra La, and how much this is going to warm, this shouldn't have sold out like it has. Seems like quite a few are closet Cobra La fans, after all.

There's Black Series, too. I was/am out, but couldn't pass up the Maul with speeder - though I really tried to. lol

New Weibo leaks. Some contain items we've seen. I just saved the link Willie Pete posted (thanks dude) and refresh and scrub through every so often.

There is a VERY IG Destro looking sword scabbard at the bottom in pic 3. Pic 6 has a shoulder strap and it uses the JoePro.

I couldn't pass up Death's Head. I remember enjoying him and Death's Head 2 (who I already have) in the 90's. The UK import books were a refreshing break from the over-saturation of Wolverine and Spider-Man stories and guest appearances in just about every friggin' book.

Are they ALL Classified parts? Was thinking those slippers might be from a Shadows of the Empire Leia and those hands from the upcoming Xizor. I know the last parts leak very clearly showed Xizor parts.

If not then yeah, that's got to be Pythona's hands.
