Wonder if we'll even get another Target exclusive vehicle given all the Dukes sitting at Target.
Then again every vehicle has been a target exclusive so I don't see why that would change. Doesn't even have to be a PP version of the Trouble Bubble, either. |

The fact that this was never an ARAH offering (therefore lacking the nostalgia factor that drives a proportion of the sales) doesn’t help either. Of course, we can’t expect Target to understand the nuances here. They will just see something that didn’t sell through quickly.

That and honestly she really needs a swivel cut somewhere near her boots, maybe around the knee area like Zarana? Or just make one around the shin I guess. But it would give her so much more posing possibilities with those two extra (well technically 4) articulation points added!
They rolled out Gundamit a year or 2 ago as the primary storefront for their Gundam type models/figures. A ShowZ login even works on Gundamit. But now it seems to have everything that ShowZ does. I'm not really sure what the point is anymore LOL Quote:
Are these the first KO items we've seen from the Classified line? Star Wars has had KO stormtroopers for many years and I assumed we'd have some KO figures in the classified line by now, but I haven't heard about any yet.
The stands look great, but not for that price. As of now I'd need at least 40 joe ones and 60 cobra ones which would be $229.90; that's way too much just for some stands. Hopefully Hasbro sees this and puts out 20 packs of the stands for $10 and shuts down these KOs. Quote:
And I hate the tiger growl deco placement on the tank. It's weird. Feel like it would have looked better on the handle bar/light shroud.

You may well be correct - but the learning should be: Don?t try to sell a repainted version of the one Joe vehicle we already have within about a year of original release.
The fact that this was never an ARAH offering (therefore lacking the nostalgia factor that drives a proportion of the sales) doesn?t help either. Of course, we can?t expect Target to understand the nuances here. They will just see something that didn?t sell through quickly. Especially since the original Duke is so hard to get now. |

They are waaaaay too expensive. I don't even use stands for my Classified figures. I dip every figure I open into boiled water for 1 minute. Initially, I started doing that to sand the hip balls a bit. Then figured out it "unlocks" a full articulation range. Helps them by adding more stability to a pose. It may sound ridiculous. But it really does help. Give it a go if you never have. The upside is that figures that show up during summer and fall months have no issues with stuck joints.

I don't know where you live but Tiger Force Duke is long gone in New Jersey - Philly area along with everything else that has G.I. Joe Classified printed on it. Nothing is peg warming. if you don't have a Tiger Force RAM yet I would grab one. It's a really nice addition and we are getting more Tiger Force.

I don't want cheap and massive and kitty. I want HasLab perfection two times a year. I'm creeping closer to 50 every day I don't want my G.I. Joe Classified shelf to look like KB left overs.

That SE was, what, the fourth in two years at the point it released? I don't think anyone but the most hardcore collectors buys multiples of SE to be honest with you, and a lot of people only got this one because of Timber.

When (if??) my retro Snake Eyes arrives, I'm gonna swap the holster/pistol/suppressor with the Alpha Commando version.
Just thought everyone would be super interested in hearing that. |
