I don’t care if they are vintage O rings, or modern era ARAH at this point. But I’m getting really excited either way! I’m happy I refrained from the 6” line because it will free up cash to throw at whatever these are. Makes me wonder how much our vintage items will go up in value if these are O rings? How much will people be willing to drop on a Whale, or a Mauler once they have a Flint, Beachhead, and Snakeyes in hand?!

Cheers man! I’m sure that’s not an easy task right now.

Impressive that they have been able to keep this under wraps. I still wonder if this line was part of the German Toy show back in January that their were no leaks from.
I really want to see what Hasbro has up their sleeve - 3 3/4 or ME are ok with me although a real well done vintage ARAH line would be ideal.

Interestingly enough, the Canadian "arrival" news shows 4086 as the qty but the US "arrival" docs show 504. So if that's the full qty for Canada there has to be more shipments coming our way, maybe into different ports.

Additional shipments is what I was thinking also. Unless GI Joe has a bigger presence in Canada than in the United States.

If they are truly retro o-rings I’m out. 100%. As smart as hasbro a been with the 6 inch line,
Going backwards for o rings is a dumb move.

Actually, there are fans like me who missed the original run. I'd love to buy reissues just to get a piece of nostalgia which you guys had when you were young.

Many of us, myself included, are assuming o-rings but these could be VvV era figs. In a way it may make sense if Hasbro wants to avoid the old school o-ring technology.

I missed the first 3 years for sure, my first and second figures were Bazooka and Alpine, who were both available in '85 AND '86, so I may have missed out on the 4th, IDK. But I wore a lot of mine out, and the survivors are getting more brittle by the year. I welcome the chance to get some "stunt doubles" or in-package display pieces. Not at the expense of new stuff, but as a supplement.
