Destro and the Despoiler should be the same price, (or cheaper, if they don't make it an exclusive), as Serpentor was.

This one might hit the $100. There is a bit more vehicle around Destro than the Platform flyer for Serpentor, but I would be okay with a lower price point.

Strange. I had an Amazon same-day delivery and the package was not located in the spot they showed in the picture confirming delivery. Maybe the packages are crawling away.

I had something similar happen a few years ago and got a refund. Then 4 days later it showed up. Maybe a free Stinger is in my future. Little price for Amazon to pay for the inconvenience. Last edited by Trigger2K; 08-27-2024 at 02:41 PM.. |

I think I'd want them to prioritise the Polar Battle Bear and Devilfish over a silver Mirage, as people are already accusing Gi Joe of being mot much more than a Motorcycle gang as it is.
------- I think the AGP and Destro's Despoiler could reasonably be done as the same price point as the HMS as they are single person vehicles. But the Ferret would be maybe a hair to small for those to be done well. I think if they do make an AGP I would like them to include a docking port the same as the Despoilers to "future proof" it with a possible DEMON. The only problem with the DEMON is as much as I feel it would make a great Haslab I also think it would disappoint me a lot to keep putting off the Cobra Moray Hydrofoil. I do kinda wish they do a Gi Joe equivalent of a Titan Class price point (not counting the Jetfire-Skystriker that is rumoured for 2025 or 2026) as that would be ideal for a Demon. (so long as they can give it moving tracks still at that price point). But part of the reason I say that is I really like Pixis one and I also really like his alt colour black and red version too. I don't think I'd "need" electronics but the problem is it does have that IR spot lamp on it so it kinda does suit Haslab really well especially with there being so many nice Club Characters they can use for the tiers too. That is why I wonder if perhaps they should "cheat" and throw in a Destro Haslab outside the normal count and offer a Haslab every 9 months instead of every 12 months. But I just say that as I want to get to some of the good stuff a bit quicker. But I get why they think one a year is a good idea to "keep it special" it just makes it so painfully slow. I really want some sort of price point for things like a RAGE : https://www.3djoes.com/cobra-rage.html or a Razorback : https://www.3djoes.com/destros-razorback.html or an X-30 Conquest : https://www.3djoes.com/conquest-x-30.html or a https://www.3djoes.com/mean-dog.html that doesn't require a Haslab to do it. I think a Mamba : https://www.3djoes.com/cobra-mamba.html is something they could just make and not have to be a Haslab for example. That is even outside of that speculated $150 or $180 price point that things might get us stuff like a https://www.3djoes.com/cobra-wolf.html or a https://www.3djoes.com/persuader.html That said I don't think I'd mind the Persuader getting a HISS tank like glow up at all. It would certainly work as a bulked up vehicle for sure. It is just a little depressing that it could be 2035 and we'd still barely have a half dozen haslabs per faction at the current rate. & without that "Titan class" or a bit smaller option so much would be missed out that might be fun to have. Some additional skus could get us some fun stuff though like : https://www.3djoes.com/mudfighter.html or a https://www.3djoes.com/hammer.html or a https://www.3djoes.com/mobile-battle-bunker.html or https://www.3djoes.com/destros-dominator.html //// I realise there is always going to be "bridge to far items" like https://www.3djoes.com/cobra-ice-sabre.html or https://www.3djoes.com/brawler.html or https://www.3djoes.com/cobra-earthquake.html But that doesn't mean I wouldn't buy them if they made them. ///// As we mentioned the other week I really actually kinda like the idea of smaller than a haslab planes like these two : https://www.3djoes.com/storm-eagle.html https://www.3djoes.com/cobra-liquidator.html If they don't want to give us the more iconic X-30 that is. |

They gave me my neighbor's package and took a picture of it on the porch. Maybe the driver ate mine because right after he left I combed the street and saw nothing.

I know no one has mentioned this, but I'd love a Payload with an MMU since there is little chance of a Defiant or Crusader.

Don't need regular Joes like "Duke in winter gear", we already have Frostbite, Iceberg, Blizzard, Wind-chill, Sub-Zero, Cold Front, etc. to go with Snow Job on the Arctic team. They all come with either a vehicle or skis & shit so they are probably all deluxe at cheapest...I spent a lot of time outside in the snow in New England as a kid, so, yeah...quite familiar with this branch.
