I got Shipwreck and wetsuit today and OMG did i love tearing open a S6 again.Ripping off the cover,untieing the twistties and enjoying a badass toy. I love Shipwreck now,all the tattoos,he can hold a knife like a pirate and he has a monkey....a fucking monkey.How awsome is that.Wetsuit has some really nice gear too.I like how they gave him a new setup rather than reuse the duke scuba gear.
If everything goes to plan,thanks to MrBlizter.I'll should be adding Leatherneck,Grandslam and High-tech to the rooster.Damn i miss this line. |

AWESOME figures you picked up there, man! I've had Shipwreck for a while, but got Wet Suit about 2 weeks ago. Epic figure! I've hooked my Shipwreck up with Duke V1's blue jacket, kinda hard to get on, but makes him look bad ass! Shipwreck rocks! And he has a monkey! A monkey with a utility belt! Honestly, Sigma is my favourite Joe line.

Sigma 6 is without question my top Joe line. Atleast they ended on a high note,the Combat class were all badass.The Dark Ninja master is one i would recommend.
I just released i don't have a Duke.For whatever reason i never picked him up.Flint is my go to guy. |

If i had to chose,it would be S6. Those damn things are indestructable.You could throw one across a parking lot and it wouldn't break.Do that with any modern joe.Thats why i loved S6 PLAYablity over DISplayablty. |

Man I still love this line! Best innovation to happen to GI Joe in years! I recently added gliderpack Kamakura to my collection, neat but wish he had more stuff. The 1st Kamakura with a ton of weapons is the best one.
These figures aged well, joints still tight. Very durable, smoke all 12" Hasbro GI joe offerings and the weapons lockers were awesome too. I forgot who it was but I have the TRU 3 pack with a navy SEAL in it who looks like Steven Segal. I remember when I bought armored Duke because he looked like he was wearing Spartan armor from Halo. The 1st Duke and Paratrooper Duke are the best S6 Duke figures. S6 had the most practical Snake Eyes visor design too. Freaking miss this line. I don't think I have Shipwreck! Should've bought him and clear Hi Tech. |

I never got a Muskrat(or was his name recondo?).The S6 design for the IG's were top-notch.They looked like scary ass shocktroopers.I have 4 keeping tabs on Destro.
Am i the only one who used the crimeboss destro as a stand in for Alexander? As soon as i get my camera back tomorrow,i'm posting some pics.This thread needs them. |

Have you checked out Shipwrecks' awesome tattoos? The list of Joe womens' names down his arm is one of my favourite details.
The Adventure Team stuff at the end of the line is some of the best Joe stuff ever made! I would sell all my other Joe stuff before I sold my Sigmas. Every other action figure I pick up I open, look at, appreciate, and then stick on the shelf. With Sigmas I open it, then grab all my bags of extra accessories and sit on the sofa (the couch!) and optimise the gear each figure has. Going through bags of bits to find the right gear for them is so wicked. I've got a whole bunch of customs I've got to take pics of to show you guys! Like my Adventure Team series two! |
