Jaye will still be the peg warmiest among them. Also the novelty only goes so far, because even some of the Black Series retro Star Wars cards can sit around retail for months.

Fans have to beg Hasbro to make CC in his classic helmeted look, now they make a 3 POA toy for tots to throw across the room. Also, again, add hip joint and scale down to 4" and this becomes a retro collectible worth $18, right?   |

Roadblock looks embarrassed to be apart of that. LOL

"Hasbro didn't call out all the stops, can a brotha get some paint ops? I ain't sayin I look gay, but my pants and boots are both gray!"

Hasbro live streaming shilling war toys while World War 3 starts. Life is surreal.

Of all the characters to do a faithful 80's version of. Well, bicep bands aside.

Mindbender probably means Serpentor isn't too far away.

Fan First Tuesday
Black Series
Another Snake-Eyes and Timber set. YAWN
Retro carded 6 inch Zartan and Storm Shadow repaints
Blue Ninjas army builder 2 pack. Yeah, what? One male and one female? Yeah, what? White eyed weirdo ninjas. Why?
Tiger Force Duke with Tiger-RAM (They didn't put the mouth on the front of the bike but the body!)
Tiger Force Bazooka and Recondo before normal versions
Python Trooper
Sgt. Slaughter back with GI JOE, digital rendering of standard (Triple T) version
Zarana has swappable hair dos. Default bald alopecia version so Zartan can say "Get my sister's name out of your f%^&n' mouth!"
Dusty. Somehow not a Tiger Force version first.
Crimson Guard looks good.
No 3 3/4" reveals or preorders. Booo...yet, good because I don't want to preorder anything.

Once they make a mold, they are gonna run it into the ground. Do I really need a 3 Zartan, another Timber? They are using that female character from Snake Eyes for the mold of female blue ninja.
I did cancel my Action Force Sgt. Slaughters. Wow. And this comes through.
So, Sarge, Dusty, Zarana, Crimson Guard... if I care, Tiger Force stuff. Everything else is becoming very lame.

Why not make a Jinx with that female ninja mold? The blue ninjas in the comics were cyborg freaks. Ninja Viper/Trooper was a thing, but those used Storm Shadow molds, part of their "Faker" appeal was they were shameless repaints. I dusted off an old photo and updated it.  While I did not want to preorder anything, it'll better part of 6 months from announcement to actually be able to order retro o-ring Duke and CC? Or longer? After the Skystriker being a big deal, it seems like retro stuff is gonna be a quarterly 2 pack at most? Guess we'll find out in JUNE. |

They are up at BBTS
The CG is pretty good. The sword is stupid. Backpack and gun look off too, not being faithful to the original.
Zarana doesn't change colors. But she's pretty good.
Stalker and Dusty look good.
