G.I. Joe Six Inch Figures

[Bravo]

Eel is an Amazon exclusive with limited amounts on Hasblo Pulse. Yes, make of the classic Cobra army builders an Amazon exclusive. Baffling. Maybe frogmen aren't as popular as BATS, but still...

Nice nods to the toon on some of the packaging

Eel did not last long on Pulse, haven't found Amazon link as of yet, I think this is going to be annoying for line collectors to get

[Felix]

I think it was Action Force #1 or #2, a single Eel takes down Snake Eyes and Scarlett, then gets away clean.

[Bravo]

The pics are steal proof for some reason. Even saving them to hard disk. Seems ridiculous. Had to use the cheat to get one.
She looks good, uses classic Scarlett body.

Hasbro has revealed the second stretch goal for their G.I. Joe Classified Series Haslab Assault Copter Dragonfly (XH-1) Haslab campaing. Its of a 6" G.I. Joe Classified Series Jane “Glenda” Mullighan figure which will be unlocked if or when the campaign reaches 16k backers. Right now that campaign as I type this has 13,071.

Glenda in the original 3 3/4" line was an exclusive figure that was available carded in Argentina by the Plastirama toy company. She was never released as a figure here in the United States. Jane “Glenda” Mullighan was a master instructor with piloting skills that would rival those of any active Joe.

As an added bonus they've included a separate harness with this Classified version which is adjustable to fit multiple figure sizes and attaches to the hoist’s rescue hook.

Hiss Tank is very split on it.

People down on it reasons:
1. Too obscure
2. Too female
3. Not in color matching the copter
4. Not Airborne/Flash/etc
5. Not going to cause a spike in backers

I figured this would happen, allows them to crowd fund Scarlett v1 body just like was done with Cobra Commander.

Cobra lends itself better to these crowd funds as they got a zillion troops, while GIJoe is more built on characters. Personally, I like her. At the pace its going, tier 2 should unlock, but they'll need a massive spike to get to the final one.

[Bravo]

1. Yeah, kinda. But better than making her "Pilot Scarlett". Also, Ripcord is better known, but his NIGHT FORCE version is an invention of the last 2 years.
2. Because adult buyers are chauvanists?
3. So they'd want Sparta instead?
4. Why make old mainline release like Airborne or Flash tied to a $300 crowd funder?
5. We'll see, but I think an extra figure will do it more than an alternate pylons/weapons load thing would.

The alternate hair is interesting. Slight wind swept, I guess. The fist hands...I mean, they'd go with Scarlett...sort of..she's more of a karate chopper.
I like the boots, no damned legwarmers.

[Bravo]

2500 away from getting Glenda. It's gonna be a slooow crawl, meesa thinks.

[Swindle]

I think they need an average of 200 backers a day to make it to the final tier (not accounting for the last bit of FOMO that kicks in at the end of a project).

[Bravo]

They should have the option if you buy more than one, making the second one in a color of your choice from a selection of colors. Tiger Force, Python Patrol, Cobra Blue, Night Force and of course Street Fighter Helifighter.
I guess that wouldn't be realistic.

[Felix]

A Tiger Force unlock makes sense.

[Bravo]

Looks like Snow Serpent will be a deluxe release. Because they chose to include a bunch of accessories that he probably doesn't even need to be complete. The snowboard, the Snow Wolf hood and cape, extra rifle (oddly no AK-47 like vintage) and twice pistols.

[Swindle]

The snow board is a nice inclusion, always liked version 2.

This looks to be the smart phone for Grunt.
