I'm feeling pretty satisfied with classified. All of the figures that I had on my list back in 2020 when the line started have either been released or announced. With said, I'm sure to be excited about other releases. My new list:
General Hawk Buzzer Iceberg Snow Serpent Tele-Viper V2 SE (Faithful to the original in design) Female Cobra soldier/trooper |

1. Recondo (a given with the TF announcement) 2. Blowtorch 3. General Hawk 4. Airborne 5. Mutt and Junkyard |

I'm very easy to please. 95% of my wants have already been done or are on their way.
I was ready to quietly walk away after I get Crimson Guard, but then they went ahead and announced a fully classic Firefly, so I'm sticking around. If they're gonna continue to be super faithful to the ARAH designs like a lot of wanted in the first place, then yes, I'll be indulgent and share my wildest desires..... Classic Battle Helmet Cobra Commander. Just take this basic sculpt and add a lot of articulation and give him his classic "hair dryer" gun. Boom. Done! Then take that figure and cast it in a darker blue and slap on the hood, and we've got a Hooded Cobra Commander. Yeah yeah, controversy, etc. Make it an exclusive or something if you must, just make sure we can all get it. I don't know who this is, cause the original 13 all look the same to me, but I intended it to be FLASH. He's the best....laser gun that plugs into his backpack, a helmet with movable visor. That toy blew my mind as a kid. Add the JUMP jetpack and this one is gold. I liked Ripcord cause he had a decent arc in the comics. His toy is awesome just for his gear. The basic figure is pretty bland. So this guy needs to be loaded up with removable webgear and helmet and rifle and all that. Wash the stink of the flop GI Joe movie off the character. Blowtorch is cool for the same reason as Ripcord...all that cool gear. The helmet and goggles and gun plugged into the backpack. My number one most wanted figure that hasn't been announced or hinted at. The 1988 Storm Shadow when he essentially joined the Joes, but only for "special missions." A radical departure from his first figure but almost as awesome and iconic. Don't mess with a winning formula. Just make the figure look like this bad ass card art and this one will be in my top five Classifieds of all time. This is maybe the only figure on the list I consider a MUST HAVE. Night Viper. The only real variation on the Viper I'm into. Would be awesome, I'm sure. They'd pack all kinds of cool stuff into this figure. 1989 Snake Eyes is another MUST. A very cool take on the ninja commando and just tricked out with deadly weapons. My personal favorite variation of the Alley Viper...the "cat-like" yellow and black tiger-striped version. No idea if it'll ever happen cause he's pretty obscure, but I dig it. The 1991 "Hockey Mask" Snake Eyes is for sure the biggest departure for the character. He was really prominent in the comics though, so I'd love it. And the final figure on my dream list... Ninja Force Snake Eyes.....the absolute WORST Snake Eyes figure in the original line of vintage figures. What a hideous mess that was. But the design itself is actually cool. It was his last "regular" outfit in the comics, so it really deserves a chance to have a decent figure after all these decades. I have faith that a Classified version would be amazing. |

Ya know, you take away the funky bright orange machine gun and cheesy harpoon gun on his back, and you actually have a really cool '91 Snake Eyes figure! I hope Hasbro starts slowly hitting some of those '91-'94 figures in this line. I guess arctic Storm Shadow was the first we got and he is a really good figure.
That Ninja Force design would be really good in Classified! Those later ARAH years get a bad rep. I know a lot of them would be hits for Classified if they just gave 'em good weapons and toned down the colors to be a little more realistic in some instances.

Much of my list is made up of figures that were piplined over the past month, so I'm feeling pretty blessed there, but there are certainly some glaring holes that need filling. All of these would need to be in keeping with the line's current "slightly updated classic" vibe::
Alpine Quick Kick Jinx Big Lob Law and Order Hit and Run Rampart Red Star Footloose shockwave Heavy Duty Lowlight (V2- I'm an outlier, I know) Night Creeper Night Creeper Leader Night Viper Range Viper SAW Viper Heat Viper Eels Undertow Snow Serpent All of the Dreadnoks, old and new(ish) Red Laser Cobra Mortal (white) A proper Cobra Commander tops the list, though. Helmet, hooded, battle armor, IDGAF. There are obviously many, many more, but any of the above will send me over the moon.

My list is definately childhood influenced, so I know this won't be many people's top 10.
10) RICH "DODGER" RENWICK 9) BLIZZARD (Ideally Tiger Force) 8) AIRBORNE 7) LIFELINE (Ideally Tiger Force, But want the Original) 6) SEYMOUR "SCI-FI" FINE 5) SHOCKWAVE 4) FREEFALL (a working parachute is a must, the 12" line managed it) 3) SCOOP 2) HYDRO VIPER 1) TRIPWIRE Tiger Force Honorary mention for SPECIALIST TRAKKER (v1) as I loved the M.A.S.K toyline as a kid. |
