Retro Viper looks better than others in classified but still not completely retro. Wish they would have made him an actual retro. I hate the Classified Viper helmet and the forearm guards and legs are way off. All of these are a disappointment

So many people from tampa on this site. I don't mind the updates besides the dam goggles being a pain sometimes. What don't you like about the updated look?

Speaking of eyebrows and in turn, eyewear - I had an extra pair of shooting glasses from a second Leatherneck I bought for a kitbash.

Thought they looked pretty rad on Rock & Roll.

Saw today that WM announced price hikes coming soon because of tariffs. They mentioned that some items may only go up a little, but they also mentioned some stuff will go up by 25-30% too.

IMO, They look way better on Rock 'n Roll.

I'm hoping she's a general release and not a low-run exclusive.

Same, I feel like ML is overdue for a livestream. Same with transformers. I really want to see the last two aerialbots and constructicons.

At this rate I hope we still get G.I Joe June. At the very least hopefully SDCC is still a go.

I know Chris from Full Force has mentioned very recently that YoJoe June is still a go as far as he has heard from his sources.

Well they have things to put up still like the Missile System. & there is that 2 Pack with Slaughter and Mercer and we are not that far off another regular wave either so - I would have expected a pre-order of some sort in June or around that time - no reason to not have a stream for a new wave and by then they may have the test shot in hand for Col. Hawk and his accessory too.

Now if there is a 2025 Haslab for Gi Joe or not.. that is an entirely different question... but I honestly think it would be "weird" if they didn't carry on as normal with the rest of Yo Joe June.

If they can't be bothered to do one mini-stream a week (they are all pre-recorded so that is really just down to changing their shirt and "pretending" it is a week later). So I won't mind if they do just the one stream in the slightest. or split it up "either is fine with me".

'IF' and it might be a big if they do a Gi Joe Haslab for 2025 I guess they'd release it at the end of Yo Joe June with an end date of early August.
"Or" they could time it so it still has at least a weak left when SSDC is on I think that worked well for them with the Rattler to be able to co-promote like that. So SDCC is July 24?27 2025 so an end date 1st of 2nd week of August for a "possible" Haslab wouldn't be to bad.

Or they could launch it earlier in June so it ends the last week of July to add a bit of urgency - but maybe that gap is a good idea as people attending might have already spent heavily at comicon after all.

I'd be disappointed if they didn't have a Haslab "at all" but they likely could make me "get over it" if they did a direct to consumer release instead.
I'm sure they could get a 1-to-1 Repaint of the Hiss Tank out in a hurry if they really wanted too and use the current situation as an "excuse" and then see how many people scream at them and if they don't scream at them they can do it again and if they do scream at them they can plead special circumstances and keep their head down for a bit.

I suppose they could also "test the waters" with a Fantastic Four Movie remould of Galactus too.

That is to be honest why I usually suggest they do an Arctic Hiss ; as that is more than just a repaint and as such can be justified somewhat as its own thing - in a way a simple red or blue repaint can't so easily be done without someone pouting about it even more.

I suppose there is always the option of chucking a couple of quick and dirty Vamp remoulds out as apology releases too - but I don't really want them to spam that mould as I do actually want most of the repaints but I think some separation of time between them and allowing each one to sell out is helpful in selling the next one; and well I don't think the Stinger is even sold out yet.

Besides a Tan VAMP II would sell way better "after" they'd offered a Mauler as it would be a great compatriot piece for a Mauler.

But I have to admit there is a little bit of me that giggles at the entitled types having kittens if they did just randomly drop a direct to consumer Tigerfly https://www.yojoe.com/vehicles/88/tigerfly/ out of the sky with no warning.

But I like Desert stuff and I wouldn't say no to more of it for Classified.

I do have to wonder how people would react to something like this in Classified scale too : https://figurefanzero.com/2013/11/16...ion-by-hasbro/
